We report inclusive and exclusive measurements for $chi_{c1}$ and $chi_{c2}$ production in $B$ decays. We measure $mathcal{B}(B to chi_{c1} X)$= $(3.03 pm 0.05(mbox{stat}) pm 0.24(mbox{syst})) times 10^{-3}$ and $mathcal{B}(B to chi_{c2} X)$= $(0.70 pm 0.06(mbox{stat}) pm 0.10(mbox{syst})) times 10^{-3}$. For the first time, $chi_{c2}$ production in exclusive $B$ decays in the modes $B^0 to chi_{c2}pi^- K^+$ and $B^+ to chi_{c2} pi^+ pi^- K^+$ has been observed, along with first evidence for the $B^+ to chi_{c2} pi^+ K_S^0$ decay mode. For $chi_{c1}$ production, we report the first observation in the $B^+ to chi_{c1} pi^+ pi^- K^+$, $B^0 to chi_{c1} pi^+ pi^- K_S^0$ and $B^0 to chi_{c1} pi^0 pi^- K^+$ decay modes. Using these decay modes, we observe a difference in the production mechanism of $chi_{c2}$ in comparison to $chi_{c1}$ in $B$ decays. In addition, we report searches for $X(3872)$ and $chi_{c1}(2P)$ in the $B^+ to (chi_{c1} pi^+ pi^-) K^+$ decay mode. The reported results use $772 times 10^{6}$ $Boverline{B}$ events collected at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider.

The decays $chi_{c1} rightarrow J/psi mu^+ mu^-$ and $chi_{c2} rightarrow J/psi mu^+ mu^-$ are observed and used to study the resonance parameters of the $chi_{c1}$ and $chi_{c2}$ mesons. The masses of these states are measured to be m(chi_{c1}) = 3510.71 pm 0.04(stat) pm 0.09(syst)MeV,, m(chi_{c2}) = 3556.10 pm 0.06(stat) pm 0.11(syst)MeV,, where the knowledge of the momentum scale for charged particles dominates the systematic uncertainty. The momentum-scale uncertainties largely cancel in the mass difference m(chi_{c2}) - m(chi_{c1}) = 45.39 pm 0.07(stat) pm 0.03(syst)MeV,. The natural width of the $chi_{c2}$ meson is measured to be $$Gamma(chi_{c2}) = 2.10 pm 0.20(stat) pm 0.02(syst)MeV,.$$ These results are in good agreement with and have comparable precision to the current world averages.
The first observation of the decays $Lambda_b^0 to chi_{c1} p K^-$ and $Lambda_b^0 to chi_{c2} p K^-$ is reported using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0$ fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The following ratios of branching fractions are measured begin{eqnarray*} frac{{cal B}(Lambda_b^0 to chi_{c1} p K^-)}{{cal B}(Lambda_b^0 to J/psi p K^-)} = 0.242 pm 0.014 pm 0.013 pm 0.009, frac{{cal B}(Lambda_b^0 to chi_{c2} p K^-)}{{cal B}(Lambda_b^0 to J/psi p K^-)} = 0.248 pm 0.020 pm 0.014 pm 0.009, frac{{cal B}(Lambda_b^0 to chi_{c2} p K^-)}{{cal B}(Lambda_b^0 to chi_{c1} p K^-)} = 1.02 pm 0.10 pm 0.02 pm 0.05, end{eqnarray*} where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third due to the uncertainty on the branching fractions of the $chi_{c1}to J/psigamma$ and $chi_{c2} to J/psigamma$ decays. Using both decay modes, the mass of the $Lambda_b^0$ baryon is also measured to be $m_{Lambda_b^0} = 5619.44 pm 0.28 pm 0.26$ MeV/$c^2$, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.
Using data samples of 89.5~fb$^{-1}$, 711.0~fb$^{-1}$, and 121.4~fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider at center-of-mass energies 10.52 GeV, 10.58 GeV, and 10.867 GeV, respectively, we study the exclusive reactions $e^+e^-togammachi_{cJ}$ ($J = 0,~1,~2$) and $e^+e^-togammaeta_c$. A significant $gamma chi_{c1}$ signal is observed for the first time at $sqrt{s}=10.58$ GeV with a significance of $5.1sigma$ including systematic uncertainties. No significant excesses for $gamma chi_{c0}$, $gamma chi_{c2}$, and $gamma eta_c$ final states are found, and we set 90% credibility level upper limits on the Born cross sections ($sigma_{rm B}$) at 10.52 GeV, 10.58 GeV, and 10.867~GeV. Together with cross sections measured by BESIII at lower center-of-mass energies, the energy dependency of $sigma_{rm B}(e^+e^-togammachi_{c1})$ is obtained.
We report a measurement of the branching fraction of $psi(3770)togammachi_{c1}$ and search for the transition $psi(3770)rightarrow gamma chi_{c2}$ based on 2.92~fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ data accumulated at $sqrt{s}=3.773$~GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The measured branching fraction of $psi(3770) rightarrow gamma chi_{c1}$ is $mathcal B(psi(3770) rightarrow gamma chi_{c1})=(2.48 pm 0.15 pm 0.23) times 10^{-3}$, which is the most precise measurement to date. The upper limit on the branching fraction of $psi(3770)rightarrow gamma chi_{c2}$ at a $90%$ confidence level is $mathcal B(psi(3770) rightarrow gamma chi_{c2})<0.64 times 10^{-3}$. The corresponding partial widths are $Gamma(psi(3770) to gamma chi_{c1}) =(67.5pm 4.1pm 6.7)$~keV and $Gamma(psi(3770) to gamma chi_{c2}) < 17.4$~keV.
Prompt $chi_c$ production at hadron colliders may provide a unique test for the color-octet mechanism in nonrelativistic QCD. We present an analysis for the polarization observables of $chi_{c1}$ and $chi_{c2}$ at next-to-leading order in $alpha_S$, and propose to measure them at the LHC, which is expected to be important for testing the validity of NRQCD.
