The subject of the charged-to-neutral yield ratio for B{\bar B} and D{\bar D}pairs near their respective thresholds in e^+e^- annihilation is revisited. As previously argued for the B mesons, this ratio should exhibit a substantial…
We report studies in polarization in B decay into two vector mesons with data equivalent to $253 {\rm fb^{-1}}$ on $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance at KEKB. In $B^0 \to \phi K^{*0}$, $B^+ \to \phi K^{*+}$ and $B^+ \to \rho^+ K^{*0}$ decays, we…
The processes $e^{+}e^{-} \to \Delta^{++}\bar{\Delta}^{--}$ and $e^{+}e^{-}\to \Delta^{++} \bar{p} \pi^{-} + c.c.$ are studied for the first time with $179~{\rm pb}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector…
We measure the production cross sections for $e^+e^- \to \Upsilon(1S)\pi^+\pi^-$, $\Upsilon(2S)\pi^+\pi^-$, and $\Upsilon(3S)\pi^+\pi^-$ as a function of $\sqrt{s}$ between 10.83 GeV and 11.02 GeV. The data consists of 8.1 fb$^{-1}$…
The exclusive decay of $\Upsilon$ to a vector plus pseudoscalar charmonium is studied in perturbative QCD. The corresponding branching ratios are predicted to be of order $10^{-6}$ for first three $\Upsilon$ resonances, and we expect these…
Recent analytic calculations on the rate for the production of a pair of massive fermions in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation plus real or virtual radiation of a pair of massless fermions are discussed. The contributions for real and virtual…
The effects of final-state interaction of hadrons, produced in $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation near the threshold, are discussed. If there is a loosely bound state or a virtual state in a system of produced hadrons, then the energy dependence of…
We discuss two processes, the $\pi N \to e^+e^- N$ and the $\gamma N \to e^+e^- N$ reactions, below and close to the vector meson production threshold ($1.40<\sqrt s <1.75$ GeV). The aim is to gain understanding of the coupling of vector…
Several exclusive $B_s^0$ decays are studied using a 1.86 fb-1 data sample collected at the Y(5S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy e^+ e^- collider. In the $B_s^0 \to D_s^- \pi^+$ decay mode we find 10 $B_s^0$…
The inclusive production of $D_s$, $D^0$, and $J/\psi$ mesons is studied using a 1.86 fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected on the $\Upsilon$(5S) resonance by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. The number of…
The ratio of the B+ B- and B0 B0bar production rates in e+ e- annihilation is computed as a function of the B meson velocity and BB* pi coupling constant, using a non-relativistic effective field theory.
The e+e- annihilation data recorded with the BABAR detector has been used to study B^0 decays to Ds^(*)+ and D^*-$ mesons. The production fraction of inclusive Ds^(*)+ and the corresponding momentum spectra have been determined. Exclusive…
It is suggested that the recently observed enhancement of the relative yield in $e^+e^-$ annihilation of states with hidden charm and hidden strangeness above 4.43\,GeV is associated with the $S$ wave production of the charmed strange meson…
Model estimates are obtained for the influence of Coulomb effects on the ratio of the cross sections for the production of charged and neutral $B\bar B$ and $B^*\bar B^*$ pairs in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. It is shown that the difference…
$P$-wave coupled channel effects arising from the $D\bar{D}$, $D\bar{D}^*+c.c.$, and $D^*\bar{D}^*$ thresholds in $e^+e^-$ annihilations are systematically studied. We provide an exploratory study by solving the Lippmann-Schwinger equation…
A new statistical model for multiparticle production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation is proposed based on the idea of the longitudinal phase space with limited transverse momentum. The longitudinal rapidity space is divided into cells of equal…
