In the present work, we investigate the production mechanism of the $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ states from the $\Upsilon(5S,6S)$ decays. Two types of bottom-meson loops are discussed. We show that the loop contributions with all…

The Belle collaboration recently discovered two resonances, $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ --- denoted $Z_b$ and $Z_b^\prime$ --- in the decays $\Upsilon(5S) \to \Upsilon(nS) \pi^+ \pi^-$ for $n$ = 1, 2, or 3, and $\Upsilon(5S) \to h_b(mP)…

The discovery of the $Z_c(3900)^\pm$ and $Z_b(10610)^\pm$ structures in the heavy quarkonium spectrum showed the need to incorporate hadron structures beyond the naive $qqq$ and $q\bar q$ systems in quark models. The new charged structure…

The assumption that the newly observed charged bottomonia states Z_b(10610) and Z_b(10650) are of molecular nature is confronted with the measured invariant mass distributions for the transitions of the Upsilon(5S) to the final states h_b…

The bottomonium spectrum is systematically studied within an unquenched quark model. Based on a good description of both the masses and widths for the well-established states, we further give predictions for the higher $S$-, $P$-, and…

We present a tetraquark interpretation of the charged bottomonium-like states Z+-_b(10610) and Z+-_b(10650), observed by the Belle collaboration in the pi+- Upsilon(nS) (n=1,2,3) and pi+- h_b(mP) (m=1,2) invariant mass spectra from the data…

The measurement of the charmonium ($J/\psi$, $\psi'$) and bottomonium ($\Upsilon$, $\Upsilon'$, ${\Upsilon''}$) resonances and $Z^0$ boson in nucleus-nucleus collisions provides crucial information on high density QCD matter. The…

Although heavy-quark symmetry predicts a $B_1\bar{B}$ molecular partner of the $D_1\bar{D}$ molecule, no such state has been observed. We propose that the experimentally observed $\Upsilon(11020)$ may be a candidate for such a state,…

We propose an unique mechanism called {\it Initial Single Pion Emission} existing in the $\Upsilon(5S)$ decays, and further study the line shapes of $d\Gamma(\Upsilon(5S\to \Upsilon(nS)\pi^+\pi^-))/dm_{\Upsilon(nS)\pi^+}$ ($n=1,2,3$) and…

The nature of the bottomonium-like states $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ is studied by calculating the $B^{(*)}\overline B^{*}$ compositeness ($X$) in those resonances. We first consider uncoupled isovector $S$-wave scattering of…

The resonance $Z_b(10610)$ is investigated as the diquark-antidiquark $ Z_b=[bu][\overline b \overline d]$ state with spin-parities $J^{PC}=1^{+-}$. The mass and current coupling of the resonance $Z_b(10610)$ are evaluated using QCD…

Inspired by the LHCb's newest observation of two new excited $\Xi_b^0$ states, we systematically study the strong decays of the low-lying $\lambda$- and $\rho$-modes $1D$-wave $\Xi_{b}$ and $\Xi^{'}_{b}$ baryons using the chiral quark model…

Recently the Belle collaboration discovered two resonances, Zb(10610) and Zb(10650), that lie very close to the B\bar{B}^* and B^*\bar{B}^* thresholds, respectively. It is natural to suppose that these are molecular states of bottom and…

In this work, we study the contributions of the intermediate bottomoniumlike $Z_b$ states and the bottom meson loops in the heavy quark spin flip transitions $\Upsilon(4S) \to h_b(1P,2P) \pi^+\pi^-$. Depending on the constructive or…

We compute the composition of the bottomonium $\Upsilon(nS)$ states (including $\Upsilon(10860)$) and the new $\Upsilon(10753)$ resonance reported by Belle in terms of quarkonium and meson-meson components. We use a recently developed novel…

We discuss the heavy quark spin structure of the recently observed `twin' resonances $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ assuming that these are mostly of a `molecular' type, i.e. that their internal dynamics is dominated by the coupling to meson…

The decays of the $Z_b(10610)$ and the $Z_b(10650)$ to $\Upsilon(nS)\pi$, $h_b(mP)\pi$ and $\chi_{bJ}(mP)\gamma$ ($n=1,2,3$, $m=1,2$ and $J=0,1,2$) are investigated within a nonrelativistic effective field theory. It is argued that, while…

In this work, we study the isospin conserved hidden bottomonium decay of $X_b\to \Upsilon(1S)\omega$, where $X_b$ is taken to be the counterpart of the famous $X(3872)$ in the bottomonium sector as a candidate for the meson-meson molecule.…

We discuss decays and productions for the possible molecular states formed by bottom mesons B (B*) and anti-B (anti-B*). The twin resonances found by Belle, Zb(10610) and Zb(10650), are such candidates. The spin wave functions of the…

Within the framework of dispersion theory, we analyze the dipion transitions between the lightest $\Upsilon$ states, $\Upsilon(nS) \rightarrow \Upsilon(mS) \pi\pi$ with $m < n \leq 3$. In particular, we consider the possible effects of two…
