We search for invisible decays of the Upsilon(1S) meson using a sample of 91.4 x 10^{6} Upsilon(3S) mesons collected at the BaBar/PEP-II B-factory. We select events containing the decay Upsilon(3S) -> pi+ pi- Upsilon(1S) and search for…

We estimate differential rapidity cross sections for $\Psi$ and $\Upsilon$ production via p-Pb collisions at 8 TeV. We use the mixed heavy quark hybrid theory in which the $J/\Psi(1S),\Upsilon(1S),\Upsilon(2S)$ are standard mesons while the…
Using CLEO data, we study the production of the anti-deuteron, d-bar, in Upsilon(nS) resonance decays and the nearby continuum. The branching ratios obtained are B^dir(Upsilon(1S) --> d-bar X) = (3.36 +- 0.23 +- 0.25) x 10^-5, B(Upsilon(1S)…

Using samples of 102 million $\Upsilon(1S)$ and 158 million $\Upsilon(2S)$ events collected with the Belle detector, we study exclusive hadronic decays of these two bottomonium resonances to $\ks K^+ \pi^-$ and charge-conjugate (c.c.)…
The singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D_{s}^{+} \to K^+\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}$ is observed, using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.32 $\rm fb^{-1}$ recorded by the BESIII detector at the centre-of-mass energies…
We measure exclusive $\pi^+\pi^-$ production in proton-antiproton collisions at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}$ = 0.9 and 1.96 TeV in the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We select events with two oppositely charged particles, assumed to…
We study the energy distributions of dipion transitions $\Upsilon(5S)$ to $\Upsilon(1S,2S,3S)\pi^+\pi^-$ in the final state rescattering model. Since the $\Upsilon(5S)$ is well above the open bottom thresholds, the dipion transitions are…
The exclusive reaction $\gamma p \to p \pi^+ \pi^-$ was studied in the photon energy range 3.0 - 3.8 GeV and momentum transfer range $0.4<-t<1.0$ GeV$^2$. Data were collected with the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National…
We present a measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays to the $\pi^+\pi^-$ CP eigenstate, and an updated measurement of the charge asymmetry in $B^0\to K^+\pi^-$ decays. In a sample of 33 million…

A resonance-like structure in the $\pi^\pm \psi(2S)$ mass spectrum arising in $B \to K \pi^\pm \psi(2S)$ has recently been reported. It is noted that the mass of this structure, $4433 \pm 4 \pm 1$ MeV, is not far from the threshold for…
We have used a study of the process e+e- --> mu+ mu- gamma at a center-of-mass energy near the Y(4S) resonance for a mu+ mu- invariant mass range near the J/psi mass to extract the cross section sigma(e+e- --> J/psi gamma --> mu+ mu-…
