We report the first observation of e+e- -> Upsilon(1S)pi+pi-, Upsilon(2S)pi+pi-, and first evidence for e+e- -> Upsilon(3S)pi+pi-, Upsilon(1S)K+K-, near the peak of the Upsilon(5S) resonance at sqrt{s}~10.87 GeV. The results are based on a…
We provide an update on our semi-classical transport approach for quarkonium production in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, focusing on $J/\psi$ and $\psi(2S)$ mesons in 5.02 TeV Pb-Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at both…
Measurements made at the LHC have shown that the production of the ${\rm J}/\psi$, $\psi$(2S), $\Upsilon$(1S) and $\Upsilon$(2S) quarkonia is suppressed in Pb-Pb collisions, with respect to the extrapolation of the pp production yields. The…
Inspired by the recent measurements on the $J/{\psi}(1S)$ ${\to}$ $D_{s}{\rho}$, $D_{u}K^{\ast}$ weak decays at BESIII and the potential prospects of the charmonium at the high-luminosity heavy-flavor experiments, we study ${\psi}(1S,2S)$…
We have reconsidered the results on the masses of the narrow bottomonium states $\Upsilon(1S)$--$\Upsilon(3S)$ obtained in 1982--1986 at CESR, DORIS and VEPP-4 colliders in order to fix shortcomings of the mass determination procedures. For…
With the potential prospects of the ${\Upsilon}(nS)$ at high-luminosity dedicated heavy-flavor factories, the color-favored ${\Upsilon}(nS)$ ${\to}$ $B_{c}{\pi}$, $B_{c}K$ weak decays are studied with the pQCD approach. It is found that…
We make comments on ref.[Z.Phys. C73, 541 (1997)], and provide partial wave analysis to the decays of excited heavy S-wave $1^-$ quarkonia into the basic $1^-$ quarkonia state plus $\pi\pi$. It is revealed that there exist contributions of…
The suitability of using non-relativistic quantum mechanics to investigate heavy quark mesons is illustrated through a study of the charmonium meson. We consider a limiting form of the QCD potential which is a simple combination of the…
In a previous letter, we computed the decay constants of heavy pseudoscalar mesons in the framework of relativistic (instantaneous) Bethe-Salpeter method (full $0^-$ Salpeter equation), in this letter, we solve the full $1^-$ Salpeter…
We compute the third-order corrections to the heavy quarkonium spectrum and production/annihilation rates due to the leading renormalization group running of the static potential. The previously known complete ${\cal O}(m_q\alpha_s^5)$…
