Study of η and dipion transitions in ϒ(4S) decays to lower bottomonia

Abstract: We study hadronic transitions between bottomonium states using 496 fb −1 data collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy e + e − collider. We measure:−5 , and B(Υ(4S) → ηΥ(1S)) = (1.70 ± 0.23(stat.) ± 0.08(syst.)) × 10 −4 . We measure the ratio of branching fractions R = B(Υ(4S) → ηΥ(1S))/B(Υ(4S) → π + π − Υ(1S)) = 2.07 ± 0.30(stat.) ± 0.11(syst.). We search for the decay Υ(1 3 D1,2) → ηΥ(1S), 3 but do not find significant evidence for such a transition. We also meas… Show more

“…The significance of this state is quantified in section 9. Recently, Belle studied the e + e − → Υ(nS)π + π − (n = 1, 2) processes in the Υ(4S) on-resonance data [34] and reported visible cross sections. For completeness, we include the corresponding Born cross sections here.…”

“…In addition, there have been new measurements after our analysis in Refs. [23,24] by the Belle Collaboration with statistics higher than before, and especially they measured the angular distributions of the Υ(4S) → Υ(1S, 2S)ππ transitions for the first time [25]. These new data help us to perform a comprehensive analysis of the Υ(4S, 3S, 2S) → Υ(nS)ππ processes.…”

“…The left panels display the ππ invariant mass spectra, while the right panels show the cos θ distributions. The solid squares denote the charged decay mode data from the Belle Collaboration[25]. The solid circles and solid triangles denote the charged and neutral decay mode data, respectively, from the CLEO Collaboration[38].…”

“…On the basis of heavy quark spin symmetry, the QCD multipole expansion (QCDME) model predicts that transitions involving the η particle should be suppressed relative to dipion transitions [3]. Several recent results [4][5][6][7] challenge this long-standing expectation. Following these measurements, it has been argued that the light-quark degrees of freedom actively intervene in the transitions [8].…”
