The search for multi-quark states beyond the constituent quark model (CQM) has resulted in the discovery of many new exotic states, starting with the observation of the X(3872), discovered by Belle in 2003. Also in the sector of charm-strange physics the CQM does not seem to describe properly all spectrum, despite of theoretical expectations. These new forms of quark bounds clearly show that mesons and baryons are not the only possibilities to be considered. We shortly report in this paper selected recent results on searching for such states at Belle, with the perspectives in the hadron physics program at the Belle II experiment.

Quarkonium is the bound state of a heavy quark and its anti-quark counterpart. The study of this system has experienced a renaissance thanks to results from e+e- collider experiments, including discoveries of long-predicted conventional quarkonia, and unusual states consisting of four quarks. The Belle Experiment operated at KEK in Japan from 1999-2010. Analysis of the collected data continues to produce new findings. The Belle II experiment is a substantial upgrade of both the Belle detector and the KEKB accelerator, aiming to collect 50 times more data beginning in 2018. This talk presented recent Belle results related to hadronic and radiative decays in the bottomonium system. It described the capabilities of Belle II to explore these topics, with a particular focus on the physics reach of the first data, where unique opportunities exist to make an immediate impact in this area.
Search for exotics has increased importance since the observation of the X(3872), 13 years ago, announced by the Belle Collaboration. The observation of pentaquark states by LHCb, and the Z-charged states observed at Belle and BES III have raised even more the attention to the field. Presently several states are observed that do not fit potential models, and looking for them in different production mechanisms and search for their decay modes it is important, as well as to do precise measurement of their mass, width, lineshape. We shortly report in this note about the plan in searching for exotics at Belle II at KEK (Tsukuba, Japan), that just ended the Phase-II running period, and show the first re-discovery results using 5 pb$^{-1}$ integrated luminosity.
The Belle Collaboration presented three recent Belle analyses: The search for $Brightarrow l ugamma$ ($l = e, mu$) with improved hadronic tagging, the search for $Brightarrow mu u_mu$ with inclusive tagging and the test of lepton universality in $Brightarrow K^*ll$ ($l = e, mu$) decays.
The reconstruction of tau-pair production, $e^{+}e^{-} to tau^{+}tau^{-}$, from the subsequent 3-prong ($tau^{+} rightarrow pi^{+} pi^{-} pi^{+} bar{ u}_{tau}$) and 1-prong ($tau^{-} to ell^{-} bar{ u}_{ell} u_{tau}$, $tau^{-} to h^{-} u_{tau}$ or $tau^{-} to pi^{-} pi^0 u_{tau}$) decays, is presented using 8.8 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data of Belle II at the center-of-mass energy $sqrt{s} = m_{Upsilon(4S)}$. The pseudomass technique developed by the ARGUS experiment is used to measure the $tau$-lepton mass $m_{tau}$ in the 3-prong $tau^{+} to pi^{+} pi^{-} pi^{+} bar{ u}_{tau} $ decay, resulting in $m_{tau} = 1777.28 pm 0.75~{rm (stat.)} pm 0.33 ~{rm (sys.)}~{rm{MeV}/rm{c}^2}$.
This paper describes the track-finding algorithm that is used for event reconstruction in the Belle II experiment operating at the SuperKEKB B-factory in Tsukuba, Japan. The algorithm is designed to balance the requirements of a high efficiency to find charged particles with a good track parameter resolution, a low rate of spurious tracks, and a reasonable demand on CPU resources. The software is implemented in a flexible, modular manner and employs a diverse selection of global and local track-finding algorithms to achieve an optimal performance.
