Upsilon Decays
نویسنده
چکیده
Bound upsilon states and their decays provide a unique laboratory for testing QCD, LQCD, and quarkonium potential models. I review recent results, some of which are significant improvements in precision over previous measurements and others are first-time observations. While most of the results presented are from CLEO III there are also notable contributions from BaBar and Belle who have just begun to exploit their strong capabilities for studying bound state upsilons.

B Decays -measurements and Predictions * 1 Basic Methods on Upsilon-4s Resonance
Hadronic decays of B mesons are reviewed. First, masses of B mesons and observed patterns together with physics behind them are discussed. Then the effective Hamiltonian responsible for major decays is presented and its practical applications are discussed in the context of factorization. Various tests of factorization are then studied. For rare decays, the focus is placed on Kπ, ππ final state...
متن کاملProposal for Testing Lepton Univerality in Upsilon Decays at a B Factory Running at Υ(3s) *
A proposal is presented for detecting new physics at a B factory running at the Υ(3S) resonance by testing lepton universality to the few percent level in the leptonic decays of the Υ(1S) and Υ(2S) resonances tagged by the dipion in the chain decay: Υ(3S) → π + π
متن کاملPossibility of Exotic States in the Upsilon system
Recent data from Belle show unusually large partial widths Υ(5S) → Υ(1S)ππ and Υ(5S) → Υ(2S)ππ. The Z(4430) narrow resonance also reported by Belle in ψπ spectrum has the properties expected of a c̄cud̄ charged isovector tetraquark T c̄c . The analogous state T b̄b in the bottom sector might mediate anomalously large cascade decays in the Upsilon system, Υ(mS) → T b̄b π → Υ(nS)ππ, with a tetraquark-...
متن کاملObservation of Upsilon(3S)-->tau+tau- and tests of lepton universality in Upsilon decays.
Using data collected with the CLEO III detector at the CESR e+e- collider, we report on a first observation of the decay Upsilon(3S)-->tau+tau-, and precisely measure the ratio of branching fractions of Upsilon(nS), n=1, 2, 3, to tau+tau- and mu+mu- final states, finding agreement with expectations from lepton universality. We derive absolute branching fractions for these decays, and also set a...
متن کاملThe BaBar Computing Model
The BaBar experiment will begin taking data in 1999. We will record and fully reconstruct up to 10 event decays of the upsilon(4s) resonance per year. We present our current status and plans for acquiring, processing and analysing this data. Contributed to Computing in High Energy Physics, 1997
