D0 presents results on the hadronic production of $X(3872)$, $\psi(2S)$, $Z_c^\pm(3900)$, and the inclusive production of pentaquarks $P_c \rightarrow J/\psi p$.
The recent observation and measurement of the decay $Z_c(3900) \to \rho \eta_c$ provides the data on the relative strength of the pion and $\rho$ coupling in the corresponding transitions between exotic resonances and pure heavy quarkonium.…

Recently, the Belle Collaboration has updated the analysis of the cross sections for the processes $e^+ e^- \to \Upsilon(nS)\, \pi^+ \pi^-$ ($n = 1,\, 2,\, 3$) in the $e^+ e^-$ center-of-mass energy range from 10.52 to 11.02~GeV. A new…
Two- and three-body decays of $\Upsilon (5S)$ into $BB, $$ BB^*, $ $ B^*B^*,$ $ B_sB_s, $ $B_sB_s^*, $ $B_s^* B_s^*$ and $BB^*\pi, B^*B^*\pi$ are evaluated using the theory, developed earlier for dipion bottomonium transitions. The theory…
In this work, we investigate the $\Upsilon(10753)\to\Upsilon(1^3D_J)\eta$ ($J=1,2,3$) processes, where the $\Upsilon(10753)$ is assigned as a conventional bottomonium under the $4S$-$3D$ mixing scheme. Our result shows that the concerned…
The modification of the production of $J/\psi$, $\psi(\mathrm{2S})$, and $\mit{\Upsilon}(n\mathrm{S})$ ($n = 1, 2, 3$) in $p$+Pb collisions with respect to their production in $pp$ collisions has been studied. The $p$+Pb and $pp$ datasets…
CDF has obtained new results on quarkonium production in p\bar{p} collisions at \sqrt{s} = 1.8 TeV. We report on measurements of Upsilon meson production, Upsilon(1S) production from Chi_b feeddown, and the production polarization of…
We analyze the decays of the theoretically predicted lowest bottomonium hybrid $H(1P)$ to open bottom two-meson states. We do it by embedding a quark pair creation model into the Born-Oppenheimer framework which allows for a unified,…
We consider the properties of the ground state of bottomium. The $\Upsilon$ mass is evaluated to two loops, and including leading higher order [$O(\alpha_s^5\log\alpha_s)$] and $m_c^2/m_b^2$ corrections. This allows us to present updated…
The bottomonium spectrum, consisting of bound states of a $b$ quark and an anti-$b$ quark, provides an excellent laboratory for probing quantum chromodynamics in the non-perturbative regime. While $S$ and $P$-wave bottomonium states are…
