We present evidence, from published BABAR data, for the existence of further excitations in the b-bbar spectrum, namely the long-awaited Upsilon(1D) and Upsilon(2D) with central masses of 10098 pm 5 MeV and 10492 pm 5 MeV, respectively. The…
The decays of $\Upsilon(1s)\to\gamma(\eta',\eta)$ are studied by an approach which has successfully predicted the ratio $\frac{\Gamma(J/\psi\to\gamma\eta')}{\Gamma(J/\psi\to\gamma\eta)}$. Strong dependence on quark mass has been found in…
We search for a light Higgs boson ($A^0$) decaying into a $\tau^+\tau^-$ or $\mu^+\mu^-$ pair in the radiative decays of $\Upsilon(1S)$. The production of $\Upsilon(1S)$ mesons is tagged by $\Upsilon(2S)\to \pi^+ \pi^- \Upsilon(1S)$…

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…
The ATLAS Collaboration has recently announced the discovery of the 3P states of the Upsilon system, chi_b(3P), with mass of 10.539+-0.004(stat.)+-0.008(syst.) GeV. In a previous investigation of the Upsilon system, in the context of a…
We search for di-muon decays of a low-mass Higgs boson (A^0) produced in radiative \Upsilon(1S) decays. The \Upsilon(1S) sample is selected by tagging the pion pair in the \Upsilon(2S, 3S) \to \pi^+ \pi^- \Upsilon(1S) transitions, using a…
We introduce a new method for the determination of the ratio of production fractions $R^{\pm0}=\mathcal B(\Upsilon(4S)\to B^+B^-)/\mathcal B(\Upsilon(4S)\to B^0\bar B^0)$ based on $\bar B\to D^{(*)}\ell\bar \nu$ decays. Given the importance…
The first search for $Z_{c}$ pair production in $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(2S)$ decays and in $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.52, 10.58, and 10.867 GeV is conducted using data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB…
We study inclusive di-pion decays using a sample of 108 x 10^6 Upsilon(3S) events recorded with the BABAR detector. We search for the decay mode Upsilon(3S) --> pi+ pi- h_b(1P) and find no evidence for the bottomonium spin-singlet state…
The three Upsilon states, Upsilon(1S+2S+3S), are measured in d+Au and p+p collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV and rapidities 1.2<|y|<2.2 by the PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider. Cross sections for the inclusive…
Analyzing $\Upsilon(nS)$ decays acquired with the CLEO detector operating at the CESR $e^+e^-$ collider, we measure for the first time the product branching fractions ${\cal B}[\Upsilon(nS)\to\gamma\chi_{b}((n-1)P_J)] \times {\cal…
A study of $\chi_{b}$ meson production at LHCb is performed on proton-proton collision data, corresponding to 3.0fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected at centre-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}=7$ and 8TeV. The fraction of $\Upsilon(nS)$…
$\Upsilon(1s)\to\gamma(\eta',\eta, f_2(1270))$ are studied by an approach in which the glueball components of these mesons play dominant role. Strong dependence on quark mass has been found in the decays $(J/\psi,…
