We present the latest results on the search of bottom baryon states Sigma_b using 1 fb^-1 of CDF data. The study is performed with the world's largest sample of fully reconstructed Lambda_b decays collected by CDF II detector at the…

Based on $122\times 10^6$ \ThreeS events collected with the \babar\ detector, we have observed the \OneDJ bottomonium state through the $\ThreeS\to\g\g\OneDJ\to\g\g\pip\pim\OneS$ decay chain.The significance for the $J=2$ member of the…

Hindered magnetic dipole transitions $\Upsilon(nS)\to \gamma \eta_b(n'S)$ are studied in the covariant light-front approach. Compared with the allowed magnetic dipole transitions, we find that results for hindered magnetic dipole…

Stimulated by the exciting progress in the observation of new bottomonium states, we study the bottomonium spectrum. To calculate the mass spectrum, we adopt a nonrelativistic screened potential model. The radial Schr\"{o}dinger equation is…

The most recent experimental data for all measured production and decay channels of the bottomonium-like states $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ are analysed simultaneously using solutions of the Lippmann-Schwinger equations which respect…

Observations of new charmonium(-like) and bottomonium(-like) states (sometimes refered to as "XYZ" states) at e+e- colliders have changed our picture of quarkonia systems as QCD bound states. Potential models with a linear confinement…

The $\Upsilon$ and $\eta_b$ as well as $B^*$ meson mass shifts (scalar potentials) are estimated for the first time in symmetric nuclear matter. The main interest is, whether or not the strengths of the bottomonium-nuclear matter and…

The observation of two charged bottomonium-like structures $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ has stimulated extensive studies of the properties of $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$. In this talk, we briefly introduce the research status of…

With a combined analysis of data on $\Upsilon(5S)\rightarrow h_b(1P,2P)\pi^+\pi^-$ and $\Upsilon(5S)\rightarrow B^{(\ast)}\bar B^{(\ast)}\pi$ in an effective field theory approach, we determine resonance parameters of $Z_b$ states in two…

Charmonium(-like) or bottomonium(-like) states, which are incompatible with predictions from a static quark anti-quark potential model, are often refered to as XYZ states. In this lecture, some peculiar properties of states such as the…

We apply the diabatic approach, specially suited for a QCD based study of conventional (quark-antiquark) and unconventional (quark-antiquark + meson-meson) meson states, to the description of hidden-bottom mesons. A spectral analysis of the…

In the past decade, many new charmonium (or charmonium-like) and bottomonium (or bottomonium-like) states were observed experimentally. I will review these XYZ states which do not fit into the quark model spectrum easily.

It is argued that the observed enhancement of the hadronic transition Upsilon(4S) -> Upsilon(1S) eta relative to Upsilon(4S) -> Upsilon(1S) pi pi can be explained if the resonance Upsilon(4S) contains an admixture of a four-quark component,…

The $\eta$ transitions of $\Upsilon(4S,5S)$ into $\Upsilon(1S,2S)$ are studied in the rescattering model by considering the final state interactions above the $B\bar B$ threshold. The width of the $\eta$ transition of $\Upsilon(4S)$ into…

The bottomonium spectrum is systematically studied within an unquenched quark model. Based on a good description of both the masses and widths for the well-established states, we further give predictions for the higher $S$-, $P$-, and…

The effect of the pion exchange on the line shape of near threshold bottomoniumlike resonances decaying into an $S$ wave pair of $B^{(*)}$ mesons is considered. It is pointed out that this effect, parametrically enhanced by the heavy meson…

We review recent charmonium and charmonium-like state from the BaBar B-factory. A particular focus is given to the observation of the decay $X(3872) \to J/\psi \omega$ and to recent $\eta_{c}(1S)$ and $\eta_{c}(2S)$ results. The Observation…

The baryon-antibaryon spectrum consisting of strange, charm and bottom quarks is studied in the color flux-tube model with a multi-body confinement interaction. Numerical results indicate that many low-spin baryon-antibaryon states can form…
