Agreement with the measured electronic widths of the $\psi(4040)$, $\psi(4415)$, and $\Upsilon (11019)$ resonances is shown to be reached if two effects are taken into account: a flattening of the confining potential at large distances and…
With the potential prospects of the ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ at high-luminosity dedicated heavy-flavor factories, the bottom-changing ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ ${\to}$ $B_{c}{\pi}$, $B_{c}K$ weak decays are studied with the pQCD approach. It is found that…

The di-electron width of an Upsilon meson is the decay rate of the Upsilon into an electron-positron pair, expressed in units of energy. We measure the di-electron width of the Upsilon(1S) meson to be 1.354 +- 0.004 +- 0.020 keV (the first…

The branching fractions of the $\Upsilon(1S)$ inclusive decays into final states with a $J/\psi$ or a $\psi(2S)$ are measured with improved precision to be $\BR(\Upsilon(1S)\to J/\psi + {\rm anything})=(5.25\pm 0.13(\mathrm{stat.})\pm…
In this paper we study the weak decays of $J/\psi$ and $\Upsilon(1S)$. Using the Bethe-Salpeter method, we calculate the hadronic transition amplitude and give the form factors. We find that two new form factors $h_1$ and $h_2$, which do…
We report the first evidence for the $h_{b}(\text{2P}) \to \Upsilon(\text{1S})\eta$ transition with a significance of $3.5$ standard deviations. The decay branching fraction is measured to be $\mathcal{B}[h_{b}(\text{2P}) \to…
We apply the principle of maximum conformality (PMC) to the Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) Pomeron intercept at the next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) accuracy. The PMC eliminates the conventional renormalization scale ambiguity by…
In this paper, we carry out the next-to-leading-order (NLO) studies on $Z \to \Upsilon(1S)+g+g$ via the color-singlet (CS) $b\bar{b}$ state. We find the newly calculated NLO QCD corrections to this process can significantly influence its…

We compute the $O(\beta_0 \alpha_s^2)$ QCD corrections to the Standard Model decay $t\rightarrow W^+ b$ as well as the non standard decay $t\rightarrow H^+ b$. We then use our results to compute the BLM scale for these decays, and study the…
