Using samples of 102 million $Upsilon(1S)$ and 158 million $Upsilon(2S)$ events collected with the Belle detector, we study exclusive hadronic decays of these two bottomonium resonances to the three-body final states $phi K^+ K^-$, $omega pi^+ pi^-$ and $K^{ast 0}(892) K^- pi^+ $, and to the two-body Vector-Tensor ($phi f_2(1525)$, $omega f_2(1270)$, $rho a_2(1320)$ and $K^{ast 0}(892) bar{K}_2^{ast 0}(1430) $) and Axial-vector-Pseudoscalar ($K_1(1270)^+ K^-$, $K_1(1400)^+ K^- $ and $b_1(1235)^+ pi^- $) pairs. Signals are observed for the first time in the $Upsilon(1S) to phi K^+ K^-$, $omega pi^+ pi^-$, $K^{ast 0} K^- pi^+$, $K^{ast0} K_2^{ast 0}$ and $Upsilon(2S) to phi K^+ K^-$, $K^{ast 0} K^- pi^+$ decay modes. Branching fractions are determined for all the processes, while 90% confidence level upper limits are established on the branching fractions for the modes with a statistical significance less than $3sigma$. The ratios of the branching fractions of $Upsilon(2S)$ and $Upsilon(1S)$ decays into the same final state are used to test a perturbative QCD prediction for OZI suppressed bottomonium decays.

Using samples of 102 million $Upsilon(1S)$ and 158 million $Upsilon(2S)$ events collected with the Belle detector, we study exclusive hadronic decays of these two bottomonium resonances to $ks K^+ pi^-$ and charge-conjugate (c.c.) states, $pi^+ pi^- pi^0 pi^0$, and $pi^+ pi^- pi^0$, and to the two-body Vector-Pseudoscalar ($K^{ast}(892)^0bar{K}^0+ {rm c.c.}$, $K^{ast}(892)^-K^+ + {rm c.c.}$, $omegapi^0$, and $rhopi$) final states. For the first time, signals are observed in the modes $Upsilon(1S) to ks K^+ pi^- + {rm c.c.}$, $pi^+ pi^- pi^0 pi^0$, and $Upsilon(2S) to pi^+ pi^- pi^0 pi^0$, and evidence is found for the modes $Upsilon(1S)to pi^+ pi^- pi^0$, $K^{ast}(892)^0 bar{K}^0+ {rm c.c.}$, and $Upsilon(2S) to ks K^+ pi^- + {rm c.c.}$ Branching fractions are measured for all the processes, while 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions are also set for the modes with a statistical significance of less than $3sigma$. The ratios of the branching fractions of $Upsilon(2S)$ and $Upsilon(1S)$ decays into the same final state are used to test a perturbative QCD prediction for OZI-suppressed bottomonium decays.
Using data taken with the CLEO III detector, 1.09 fb-1 at Upsilon(1S), and 1.28 fb-1 at Upsilon(2S), branching fractions have been measured for the first time for exclusive decays of each resonance into one hundred different final states consisting of 4 to 10 light hadrons, pions, kaons, and protons. Significant strength is found in 73 decay modes of Upsilon(1S) and 17 decay modes of Upsilon(2S), with branching fractions ranging from 0.3x10^-5 to 110x10^-5. Upper limits at 90% confidence level are presented for the other decay modes.
We search for the $J^{PC}=0^{--}$ and $1^{+-}$ light tetraquark states with masses up to 2.46~GeV/$c^2$ in $Upsilon(1S)$ and $Upsilon(2S)$ decays with data samples of $(102pm 2)$ million and $(158pm 4)$ million events, respectively, collected with the Belle detector. No significant signals are observed in any of the studied production modes, and 90% credibility level (C.L.) upper limits on their branching fractions in $Upsilon(1S)$ and $Upsilon(2S)$ decays are obtained. The inclusive branching fractions of the $Upsilon(1S)$ and $Upsilon(2S)$ decays into final states with $f_1(1285)$ are measured to be ${cal B}(Upsilon(1S)to f_1(1285)+anything)=(46pm28({rm stat.})pm13({rm syst.}))times 10^{-4}$ and ${cal B}(Upsilon(2S)to f_1(1285)+anything)=(22pm15({rm stat.})pm6.3({rm syst.}))times 10^{-4}$. The measured $chi_{b2} to J/psi + anything$ branching fraction is measured to be $(1.50pm0.34({rm stat.})pm0.22({rm syst.}))times 10^{-3}$, and 90% C.L. upper limits for the $chi_{b0,b1} to J/psi + anything$ branching fractions are found to be $2.3times 10^{-3}$ and $1.1times 10^{-3}$, respectively. For ${cal B}(chi_{b1} to omega + anything)$, the branching fraction is measured to be $(4.9pm1.3({rm stat.})pm0.6({rm syst.}))times 10^{-2}$. %($<3.68times 10^{-2}$ at 90% C.L.). All results reported here are the first measurements for these modes.
We report the first search for the $J^{PC}=0^{--}$ glueball in $Upsilon(1S)$ and $Upsilon(2S)$ decays with data samples of $(102pm2)$ million and $(158pm4)$ million events, respectively, collected with the Belle detector. No significant signals are observed in any of the proposed production modes, and the 90% credibility level upper limits on their branching fractions in $Upsilon(1S)$ and $Upsilon(2S)$ decays are obtained. The inclusive branching fractions of the $Upsilon(1S)$ and $Upsilon(2S)$ decays into final states with a $chi_{c1}$ are measured to be $BR(Upsilon(1S)to chi_{c1}+ anything) = (1.90pm 0.43(stat.)pm 0.14(syst.))times 10^{-4}$ with an improved precision over prior measurements and $BR(Upsilon(2S)to chi_{c1}+ anything) = (2.24pm 0.44(stat.)pm 0.20(syst.))times 10^{-4}$ for the first time.
Using data samples of $102times10^6$ $Upsilon(1S)$ and $158times10^6$ $Upsilon(2S)$ events collected with the Belle detector, a first experimental search has been made for double-charmonium production in the exclusive decays $Upsilon(1S,2S)rightarrow J/psi(psi)+X$, where $X=eta_c$, $chi_{cJ} (J=~0,~1,~2)$, $eta_c(2S)$, $X(3940)$, and $X(4160)$. No significant signal is observed in the spectra of the mass recoiling against the reconstructed $J/psi$ or $psi$ except for the evidence of $chi_{c1}$ production with a significance of $4.6sigma$ for $Upsilon(1S)rightarrow J/psi+chi_{c1}$. The measured branching fraction $BR(Upsilon(1S)rightarrow J/psi+chi_{c1})$ is $(3.90pm1.21(rm stat.)pm0.23 (rm syst.))times10^{-6}$. The $90%$ confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions of the other modes having a significance of less than $3sigma$ are determined. These results are consistent with theoretical calculations using the nonrelativistic QCD factorization approach.
