Many new states in the charmonium and bottomonium mass region were recently discovered by the BaBar, Belle and CDF Collaborations. We use the QCD Sum Rule approach to study the possible structure of some of these states. In particular we identify the recently observed bottomonium-like resonance $Z_b^+(10610)$ with the first excitation of the tetraquark $X_b(1^{++})$, the analogue of the X(3872) state in the charm sector.

Charmonium, the spectroscopy of cbar{c} mesons, has recently enjoyed a renaissance with the discovery of several missing states and a number of unexpected charmonium-like resonances. The discovery of these new states has been made possible by the extremely large data samples made available by the B-factories at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center and at KEK in Japan, and at the CESR e^+e^- collider at Cornell. Conventional cbar{c} states are well described by quark potential models. However, many of these newly discovered charmonium-like mesons do not seem to fit into the conventional cbar{c} spectrum. There is growing evidence that at least some of these new states are exotic, i.e. new forms of hadronic matter such as mesonic-molecules, tetraquarks, and/or hybrid mesons. In this review we describe expectations for the properties of conventional charmonium states and the predictions for molecules, tetraquarks and hybrids and the various processes that can be used to produce them. We examine the evidence for the new candidate exotic mesons, possible explanations, and experimental measurements that might shed further light on the nature these states.
The bottomonium and charmonium systems have long proved to be a rich source of QCD physics. Recent CLEO contributions in three disparate areas are presented: (1) the study of quark and gluon hadronization using $Upsilon$ decays; (2) the interpretation of heavy charmonium states, including non-$cbar{c}$ candidates; and (3) the exploration of light quark physics using the decays of narrow charmonium states as a well-controlled source of light quark hadrons.
In this short review we present and discuss all the experimental information about the charged exotic charmonium states, which have been observed over the last five years. We try to understand their properties such as masses and decay widths with QCD sum rules. We describe this method, show the results and compare them with the experimental data and with other theoretical approaches.
In the present work, we study the OZI-allowed three body open flavor decay properties of higher vector charmonium and bottomonium states with an extended quark pair creation model. For the bottomonium system, we get that (i) the $BBpi$ and $B^*B^*pi$ partial decay widths of the $Upsilon(5S)$ state are consistent with the experiment, and the $BB^*pi$ partial decay width of the $Upsilon(5S)$ state is smaller but very close to the Belles experiment. Meanwhile, (ii) the $BB^*pi$ and $B^*B^*pi$ decay widths of $Upsilon(11020)$ can reachs $2sim3$ MeV. In addition, (iii) for the most of higher vector charmonium states, the partial decay widths of the $DD^*pi$ and $D^*D^*pi$ modes can reach up to several MeV, which may be observed in future experiments.
We report the observation of two narrow structures in the mass spectra of the pi+-Y(nS) (n=1,2,3) and pi+-hb(mP)(m$ (m=1,2) pairs that are produced in association with a single charged pion in Y(5S) decays. The measured masses and widths of the two structures averaged over the five final states are M_1=(10607.2+-2.0) MeV/c2, Gamma_1=(18.4+-2.4) MeV and M_2=(10652.2+-1.5) MeV/c2, Gamma_2=(11.5+-2.2) MeV. The results are obtained with a 121.4 1/fb data sample collected with the Belle detector in the vicinity of the Y(5S) resonance at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.
