We describe a search for hadronic decays of the Y(1S), Y(2S), and Y(3S) resonances to the exclusive final states rho pi, K*(892) Kbar, rho a2(1320), omega f2(1270), phi f2'(1525), K*(892) K2*(1430)bar, b1(1235) pi, K1(1270) Kbar, and…
A broad peak is observed at low K^+K^- invariant mass in J/psi --> K^+K^-pi^0 decays found in a sample of 5.8\times 10^7 J/psi events collected with the BESII detector. A partial wave analysis shows that the J^PC of this structure is 1^--.…

Observation is reported for a structure near the $J/\psi\phi$ threshold in $B^+\rightarrow J/\psi\phi K^+$ decays produced in $\bar{p} p $ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96 \TeV$ with a statistical significance of beyond 5 standard deviations.
We report the first observation of the exclusive decay process B->J/psi K1(1270) using a sample of 11.2M BBbar meson pairs collected in the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric e+e- collider. We measure branching fractions of Bf(B0 ->…
Using data collected with the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, the hadronic decay Bs -> J/psi f0(980) is observed. This CP eigenstate mode could be used to measure mixing-induced CP violation in…
BES data on $J/\psi \to \gamma (K^{\pm} K_S^0 \pi^{\mp})$ are presented. There is a strong peak due to $\eta(1440)/\iota$, which is fitted with a Breit-Wigner amplitude with $s$-dependent widths for decays to $K^*K$, $\kappa K$, $\eta…

We study the decay processes of $\bar{B}^0 \to J/\psi \bar{K}^{*0} K^0$ and $\bar{B}^0 \to J/\psi f_1(1285)$ to analyse the $f_1(1285)$ resonance. By the calculation within chiral unitary approach where $f_1(1285)$ resonance is dynamically…
Hybrid charmonium with mass ~4 GeV could be produced via a c c.bar color-octet component in b->c c.bar s. These states could be narrow and could have a significant branching ratio to light hadrons, perhaps enhanced by glueballs. Decays to…
We report the observation of a near-threshold enhancement in the omega-J/psi invariant mass distribution for exclusive B-->K omega J/psi decays. The results are obtained from a 253 fb-1 data sample that contains 275 million BB-bar meson…
The $J/\psi$ meson has negative $G$-parity so that, in the limit of isospin conservation, its decay into $\pi^+\pi^-$ should be purely electromagnetic. However, the measured branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi\to\pi^+\pi^-)$ exceeds by…
