We have studied two-photon transitions from Upsilon(3S) decays recorded by the CLEO-III detector in exclusive events with two photons and either two electrons or two muons. We obtain precision measurements of the chi_b(2P_J) masses for J=2…
The three lowest-lying $\Upsilon$ states, i.e. $\Upsilon(1S)$, $\Upsilon(2S)$, and $\Upsilon(3S)$, composed of $b\bar b$ pairs and below the $B\bar B$ threshold, provide a good platform for the researches of hadronic physics and physics…

Using samples of (5.93 +/- 0.10) x 10^6 Upsilon(3S) decays and (9.11 +/- 0.14) x 10^6 Upsilon(2S) decays collected with the CLEO detector, we report improved measurements of the branching fractions for the following five transitions:…
The CLEO III experiment has recently accumulated a large statistics sample of 4.73 x 10^6 Upsilon(3S) decays. We present the first evidence for the production of the triplet Upsilon(1D) states in the four-photon cascade, Upslion(3S) ->…

In this paper, we briefly review results on rare decays of $B$ mesons from the Belle experiment, based on 10.4 fb$^{-1}$ data collected on the $\Upsilon$(4S) resonance. The topics include measurements of Cabibbo suppressed decays $B \to…
We show how string breaking on the lattice, treated as a mixing effect, can be related to decay rates for heavy quark systems. We use this to make a preliminary calculation of the energy split at maximum mixing for static quarks in QCD from…
We report the first search for CP violating decays of the $\Upsilon(4S)$ using a data sample that contains 535 million $\Upsilon(4S)$ mesons with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+ e^- collider. A partial reconstruction…
The initial single pion emission (ISPE) mechanism is applied to the processes $\Upsilon(5S)\to \pi B^{(*)}\bar{B}^{(*)}$ whose details have been recently reported at ICHEP2012 and we obtain reasonable agreement with Bell's measurements,…
In this paper, we calculate the decay widths and branching fractions for the decays $Z \to J/\psi+\Upsilon(nS)$ ($n=1,2,3$) at future super $Z$ factory and at the CEPC/FCC-ee, including both the relativistic and QCD corrections within the…
We study the $\Upsilon$ exclusive decay into double charmonium, specifically, the $S$-wave charmonium $ J/\psi$ plus the $P$-wave charmonium $\chi_{c0,1,2}$ in the NRQCD factorization framework. Three distinct decay mechanisms, i.e., the…

We have searched for the bottomonium eta_b(1S) via the hindered magnetic dipole (M1) photon transition Upsilon(3S) -> gamma eta_b(1S). No evidence for such a transition is found in the data sample of 4.7 x 10^6 Upsilon(3S)'s collected with…

The color-octet (CO) mechanism is a cornerstone of non-relativistic QCD, yet its long-distance matrix elements remain limited, preventing stringent tests of the theory. We demonstrate that the Artru-Collins asymmetry in hadronic decays of…
The B-factories have successfully exploited the unique advantages of the Upsilon(4S) resonance to study many aspects of Bd and Bu mesons. The Upsilon(10860) (aka Upsilon(5S)) resonance, which is above mass threshold for the Bs and shares…
