Stimulated by the exciting progress in the observation of new bottomonium states, we study the bottomonium spectrum. To calculate the mass spectrum, we adopt a nonrelativistic screened potential model. The radial Schr\"{o}dinger equation is…
The mass spectrum of $b\bar{b}$ states has been obtained using the phenomenological relativistic quark model (RQM). The Hamiltonian used in the investigation has confinement potential and confined one gluon exchange potential (COGEP). In…
Quark models taking into account the dynamical effects of hadronic decay often produce very different predictions for mass shifts in the hadron spectrum. The consequences for meson spectroscopy can be dramatic and completely obscure the…
We show that some NRQCD colour-octet matrix elements can be written in terms of (derivatives of) wave functions at the origin and non-perturbative universal constants once the factorization between the soft and ultrasoft scale is achieved…

The measurement of the eta_b mass, together with a QCD result for the hyperfine splitting E_{HFS}=M_{Upsilon(1S)}-M_{eta_b}, allows us to determine the strong coupling constant alpha_s at a low energy scale. The result…
We present the next-to-next-to-next-to-leading ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^5m_q)$ result for the ground state energy of a heavy quarkonium system. On the basis of this result we determine the bottom quark mass from $\Upsilon(1S)$ resonance and…
