Abstract:

Using a 4.19 fb^-1 data sample collected with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have searched for dipion transitions between pairs of Y resonances at center of mass energies Ec.m. = 10.58 GeV and Ec.m. = 10.52GeV. We obtain the 90% confidence level upper limits B(Υ(4S) →Υ (2S) π⁺π^-)<3.9×10^-4 and B(Υ(4S)→Υ(1S)π⁺π ^-)<1.2×10^-4. We also observe the transitions Υ(2S)→Υ(1S)π⁺π^-, Υ(3S)→Υ(2S)π⁺π^-, and Υ(2S)→Υ(1S)π⁺π^-, from which we measure the cross sections for the radiative processes e⁺e^-→Υ(2S)γ and e⁺e^-→Υ(2S)γ. We obtain σ��→Υ(3��)γ = (17.8±3.0±1.7)pb and ��→Υ(2��)γ = (15.5±1.3±1.4) pb at Ec.m. = 10.58 GeV, and ��→Υ(3��)γ = (27.3 ±5.0±2.6) pb and ��→Υ(2��)γ = (16.3±1.8±1.5) pb at Ec.m. = 10.52 GeV, which we compare with theoretical predictions. ©1999 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We present new measurements of photon energies and branching fractions for the radiative transitions Y(2S)→γχb(J=0,1,2)(1P). The masses of the χb states are determined from the measured radiative photon energies. The ratio of mass splittings between the χb substates, r≡(MJ=2-MJ=1)/(MJ=1-MJ=0), with M the χb mass, provides information on the nature of the bb̄ confining potential. We find r(1P)=0.542 ±0.022±0.024. This value is somewhat lower than the previous world average, but more consistent with the theoretical expectation that r(1P)b(1P) states than for the χb(2P) states. ©1999 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

The decay τ-→ K*- η ν τ has been observed with the CLEO II detector. The K*- is reconstructed in two decay channels, K*-→ KSπ-→π+π- and K*-→ K-π0. The η is reconstructed from the decay η → γγ. The measured branching fraction isB(τ-→ K*-π η ντ)=(2.9 ± 0.8 ±0.4) × 10-44. We also measure the inclusive branching fractions without requiring the K* resonance, B(τ-→ KSπ- η ντ)=(1.10 ± 0.35 ±0.11) × 10-4 and B(τ-→ K-π0 η ντ)=(1.77 ± 0.56 ±0.71) × 10-4. The results indicate that the K*- resonance dominates the KSπ- mass spectrum. © 2000 The American Physical Society.
