We present measurements of decay matrix elements for hadronic transitions of the form Upsilon(nS) -> pi pi Upsilon(mS) where (n, m) = (3, 1), (2, 1), and (3, 2). We reconstruct charged and neutral pion modes with the final state Upsilon…
We make comments on ref.[Z.Phys. C73, 541 (1997)], and provide partial wave analysis to the decays of excited heavy S-wave $1^-$ quarkonia into the basic $1^-$ quarkonia state plus $\pi\pi$. It is revealed that there exist contributions of…
It is argued that the observed enhancement of the hadronic transition Upsilon(4S) -> Upsilon(1S) eta relative to Upsilon(4S) -> Upsilon(1S) pi pi can be explained if the resonance Upsilon(4S) contains an admixture of a four-quark component,…
We point out some properties of the amplitude of the dipion transition $\Upsilon(3S) \to \Upsilon(1S) \pi \pi$ in relation to the recently reported results of a CLEO analysis of form factors in this amplitude. We find that the reported…
The CLEO Collaboration has observed the first hadronic transition among bottomonium (b bbar) states other than the dipion transitions among vector states, Upsilon(nS) -> pi pi Upsilon(mS). In our study of Upsilon(3S) decays, we find a…
Dipion transitions of the subthreshold bottomonium levels $\Upsilon (nS)\to \Upsilon (n'S) \pi\pi$ with $n>n', n=2,3,4, n'=1,2$ are studied in the framework of the chiral decay Lagrangian, derived earlier. The channels $B\bar B, B\bar B^*+…
We examine the electronic width ratios of Upsilon resonances below the BBbar threshold by means of an effective (Cornell-type) QCD potential incorporating 1/m_b corrections obtained from a prior fit to the bottomonium spectrum. From our…
The di-pion spectrum for the $\Upsilon(nS) \to \Upsilon (n'S))$ transition with $n\leq 4$ has the form $\frac{dw}{dq}\sim $ (phase space) $ |\eta-x|^2$, with $x=\frac{q^2-4m^2_\pi}{(\Delta M)^2 -4 m^2_\pi}< q^2 \equiv M^2_{\pi\pi}, $ and…
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…
The dipion transitions $\Upsilon(2S,3S,4S) \to \Upsilon(1S,2S)\pi\pi$ are systematically studied by considering the mechanisms of the hadronization of soft gluons, exchanging the bottomoniumlike $Z_b$ states, and the bottom-meson loops. The…
We calculate the full spectrum of D-wave states in the Upsilon system in lattice QCD for the first time, using an improved version of NonRelativistic QCD on coarse and fine "second generation" gluon field configurations from the MILC…
The effect of isoscalar S-wave multi-channel pion-pion scattering ($\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\bar{K},\eta\eta$) is considered in the analysis of data on decays of the $\Upsilon$-meson family -- $\Upsilon(2S)\to\Upsilon(1S)\pi\pi$,…
The effect of isoscalar S-wave multichannel pi pi -> pi pi, K antiK, eta eta scattering is considered in the analysis of decay data of the Upsilon-mesons. We show that when allowing for the final state interaction contribution to the decays…
At least one state in the first family of D-wave $b \bar b$ quarkonium levels has been discovered near the predicted mass of 10.16 GeV/$c^2$. This state is probably the one with J=2. This state and the ones with J=1 and J=3 may contribute a…
In the present work, we investigate the dipion transitions between $\Upsilon(5S)$ and $\Upsilon_J(1D)$ with $J=1, 2, 3$. Our analysis indicates that the dominant sources of the anomalously large widths of $\Upsilon(5S)\to \Upsilon_J(1D)…
The effect of isoscalar S-wave processes $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\overline{K},\eta\eta$ is considered in the analysis of data (from the ARGUS, CLEO, CUSB, Crystal Ball, Belle, BABAR collaborations) on the bottomonia decays ---…
The CLEO Collaboration has made the first observations of hadronic transitions among bottomonium (b-bbar) states other than the dipion transitions among upsns states. In our study of Y(3S) decays, we find a significant signal for Y(3S) ->…
I present highlights of recent CLEO studies on the Upsilon(1S), Upsilon(2S), and Upsilon(3S). The preliminary results presented here include the first observation of a hadronic cascade in the Upsilon system not involving pions, Upsilon(3S)…
Using a data sample collected with the CLEO II detector at CESR, we have searched for dipion transitions between pairs of $\Upsilon$ resonances at energies near the $\Upsilon(4S)$. We obtain upper limits $B(\Upsilon(4S)\to…
In this work, we investigate the $\Upsilon(10753)\to\Upsilon(nS)\pi^+\pi^-$ ($n=1,2,3$) processes by considering the hadronic loop mechanism, where $\Upsilon(10753)$ is assigned to a conventional bottomonium in the $4S$-$3D$ mixing scheme.…
