A value of 0.28 +/- 0.02 s has been deduced for the half-life of the ground state of 60Mn, in sharp contrast to the previously adopted value of 51 +/- 6 s. Access to the low-spin 60Mn ground state was accomplished via beta decay of the 0+…

The mass spectrum of $c \bar b$ meson is investigated with an effective quark-antiquark potential of the form $\frac{-\alpha_c}{r}$ + $A r^{\nu}$ with $\nu$ varying from 0.5 to 2.0. The S and P-wave masses, pseudoscalar decay constant, weak…
