Leptonic decays of vector-states of bottomonium are analized searching for a light pseudoscalar Higgs-like neutral boson manifesting via an apparent breaking of lepton universality.

As tests of QCD in the bottomonium system, we give the most accurate results to date for the ground-state hyperfine splitting and the $\Upsilon$ leptonic width from full lattice QCD. These quantities are both accurately known from…

Although heavy-quark symmetry predicts a $B_1\bar{B}$ molecular partner of the $D_1\bar{D}$ molecule, no such state has been observed. We propose that the experimentally observed $\Upsilon(11020)$ may be a candidate for such a state,…

From first principles, particles with the same quark content and similar masses should have similar kinematic distributions. Transverse mass scaling may be employed to estimate possible differences in the momentum distribution of such…

We extract transverse momentum dependent feed-down fractions for bottomonium production using a data-driven approach. We use data published by the ATLAS, CMS, and LHCb Collaborations for sqrt(s) = 7 TeV proton-proton collisions. Based on…

Great strides have been made in the understanding of bound states of a bottom quark $b$ and its antiquark $\bar b$ since the discovery of the first $\Upsilon$ resonances in 1977. These {\it bottomonium} bound states have a rich spectrum…

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…

We discuss, how to study $I = 0$ quarkonium resonances decaying into pairs of heavy-light mesons using static potentials from lattice QCD. These static potentials can be obtained from a set of correlation functions containing both static…

The shrinking of the bottomonium spectral function towards narrow quasi-particle states in a cooling strong-interaction medium at finite baryon density is followed within a holographic bottom-up model. The 5-dimensional…

We propose a new method to extract the light quark mass ratio $m_u/m_d$ using the $\Upsilon(4S)\to h_b\pi^0(\eta)$ bottomonia transitions. The decay amplitudes are dominated by the light quark mass differences, and the corrections from…

The possible existence of a light CP-odd Higgs state in many new-physics models could lead to observable effects in the bottomonium sector. Experimental bounds on radiative $\Upsilon$ decays through such a pseudoscalar state and possible…

We present the complete next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order short-distance and bound-state QCD correction to the leptonic decay rate Gamma(Upsilon(1S)->l+l-) of the lowest-lying spin-1 bottomonium state. The perturbative QCD prediction is…

Within the framework of dispersion theory, we analyze the dipion transitions between the lightest $\Upsilon$ states, $\Upsilon(nS) \rightarrow \Upsilon(mS) \pi\pi$ with $m < n \leq 3$. In particular, we consider the possible effects of two…

Radiative decays of bottomonium are revisited, focusing on contributions from higher-order relativistic effects. The leading relativistic correction to the magnetic spin-flip operator at the photon vertex is found to be particularly…

We investigate the spectrum of $T_{\Upsilon\Upsilon}$ tetraquark candidates within a coupled-channels framework. The analysis includes all $L\leq2$ combinations of $\Upsilon(1S)$, $\Upsilon(2S)$, $\eta_b(1S)$, and $\eta_b(2S)$ in the $J^P =…

The mass spectrum of beauty hadrons ($b\overline{b}$ and $bbb$ baryons) and $bb$-diquarks are computed in a non-relativistic phenomenological potential model. The potential comprises of a short-range Coulomb potential, a screened…

Under the Initial Single Pion Emission mechanism, we study the hidden-bottom dipion decays of $\Upsilon(11020)$, i.e., $\Upsilon(11020)\to \Upsilon(nS)\pi^+\pi^-$ $(n=1,2,3)$ and $\Upsilon(11020)\to h_b(mP)\pi^+\pi^-$ $(m=1,2)$. We predict…

We present here a model to describe the bottomonium suppression in Pb$+$Pb collisions at Large Hadron Collider (LHC), at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76$ TeV by using the quasi-particle model (QPM) equation of state (EOS) for the Quark-Gluon Plasma…

A calculation is presented of the radiative decay of the Upsilon(nS) into a bound state of bottom squarks. Predictions are provided of the branching fraction as a function of the masses of the bottom squark and the gluino. Branching…

In this work we examine the possible existence of new physics beyond the standard model which could modify the branching fractions of the leptonic (mainly tauonic) decays of bottomonium vector resonances below the $B\bar{B}$ threshold. The…
