Properties of bottomonia in a relativistic quark model

Abstract

The mass spectrum of [Formula: see text] states has been obtained using the phenomenological relativistic quark model (RQM). The Hamiltonian used in the investigation has confinement potential and confined one gluon exchange potential (COGEP). In the framework of RQM a study of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] radiative decays of [Formula: see text] states has been made. An overall agreement is obtained with the experimental masses and decay widths. The possibility that some of the excited [Formula: see text] wave [Formula: see text] states being exotic states is explored.
