Bottomonium Results from BABAR and BELLE
نویسنده
چکیده
After nine years of operation the BABAR experiment at the B factory PEPII (Standford Linear Accelerator Center) stopped data taking in April 2008. The last three month of data taking were devoted to ee collisions at center of mass energies of the Υ(2S), Υ(3S) and to an energy scan above the Υ(4S). Besides the observation of the bottomonium ground state ηb, the center of mass energy dependent ee → bb̄ cross section was measured in the energy range from 10.54 to 11.20 GeV. BELLE observed an enhancement in the production cross section for ee → Υ(nS)ππ → μμππ in an energy scan from 10.83 to 11.02 GeV.

Recent BABAR and Belle results on rare B decays involving photons or lepton pairs are reviewed. New preliminary limits from both experiments for B → ργ and B 0 → ωγ, and from BABAR for B − → K − νν and B + → τ + ν τ are presented. Also summarized from the past year are Belle measurements of B → X s ℓ + ℓ − and B 0 → K * 2 (1430) 0 γ, preliminary BABAR measurements of B → X s γ, and preliminary ...
متن کاملRecent Results in Bottomonium Spectroscopy Contribution to the proceedings of HQL06,
Nearly thirty years ago, the E288 experiment at Fermilab reported [1] the observation of a significant excess in the number of events near 9.5 GeV in the spectrum of the invariant mass of μμ produced in a proton beam on a nuclear target. Over the course of the subsequent two decades the spectrum of this newly-discovered heavy quarkonium system was fleshed out in some detail. Experiments which c...
