We, using an effective Lagrangian approach, investigated the dipionic transition of the $Y(4500)$ newly well established in the process $e^+e^-\to K^+K^- J/\psi$. In this study, the $Y(4500)$ was considered as a mixture of the $\psi(5S)$…

In this Letter we describe a search for lepton flavor violation (LFV) in the bottomonium system. We search for leptonic decays of Upsilon(nS)(n=1,2, and 3) into muon and tau using the data collected with the CLEO III detector. We identify…

We revisit the Standard Model description of the recently measured rare decays $D^0\to\pi^+\pi^-\ell^+\ell^-$. Because of the effectiveness of the Glashow-Iliopoulos-Maiani mechanism in charm flavour-changing neutral currents, those decays…

Quarkonium production has been studied extensively in relativistic heavy-ion collision experiments to understand the properties of the quark gluon plasma. The experimental results on the yield modification in heavy-ion collisions relative…

We consider the properties of the ground state of bottomium. The $\Upsilon$ mass is evaluated to two loops, and including leading higher order [$O(\alpha_s^5\log\alpha_s)$] and $m_c^2/m_b^2$ corrections. This allows us to present updated…

Based on $(2.712\pm0.014)\times10^9$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII collaboration, evidence of the hadronic decay $h_c\to K_S^0K^+\pi^-+c.c.$ is found with a significance of $4.3\sigma$ in the $\psi(3686)\to\pi^0 h_c$ process.…

In order to explain the observed unusually large dipion transition rates of $\Upsilon(10870)$, the scalar resonance contributions in the re-scattering model to the dipion transitions of $\Upsilon(4S)$ and $\Upsilon(5S)$ are studied. Since…
