In this work, we study the contributions of the intermediate bottomoniumlike $Z_b$ states and the bottom meson loops in the heavy quark spin flip transitions $Upsilon(4S) to h_b(1P,2P) pi^+pi^-$. Depending on the constructive or destructive interferences between the $Z_b$-exchange and the bottom meson loops mechanisms, we predict two possible branching ratios for each process: BR$_{Upsilon(4S) to h_b(1P)pi^+pi^-}simeqbig(1.2^{+0.8}_{-0.4}times10^{-6}big)$ or $big( 0.5^{+0.5}_{-0.2}times10^{-6}big)$, and BR$_{Upsilon(4S) to h_b(2P)pi^+pi^-}simeq big(7.1^{+1.7}_{-1.1}times10^{-10}big)$ or $big( 2.4^{+0.2}_{-0.1}times10^{-10}big)$. The bottom meson loops contribution is found to be much larger than the $Z_b$-exchange contribution in the $Upsilon(4S) to h_b(1P) pipi$ transitions, while it can not produce decay rates comparable to the heavy quark spin conserved $Upsilon(4S) to Upsilon(1S,2S) pipi$ processes. We also predict the branch fractions of $psi(3S,4S) to h_c(1P)pi^+pi^-$ contributed from the charm meson loops.

We study the dipion transitions $Upsilon(4S) rightarrow Upsilon(nS) pi^+pi^-$ $(n=1,2)$. In particular, we consider the effects of the two intermediate bottomoniumlike exotic states $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ as well as bottom meson loops. The str ong pion-pion final-state interactions, especially including channel coupling to $Kbar{K}$ in the $S$-wave, are taken into account model-independently by using dispersion theory. Based on a nonrelativistic effective field theory we find that the contribution from the bottom meson loops is comparable to those from the chiral contact terms and the $Z_b$-exchange terms. For the $Upsilon(4S) rightarrow Upsilon(2S) pi^+pi^-$ decay, the result shows that including the effects of the $Z_b$-exchange and the bottom meson loops can naturally reproduce the two-hump behavior of the $pipi$ mass spectra. Future angular distribution data are decisive for the identification of different production mechanisms. For the $Upsilon(4S) rightarrow Upsilon(1S) pi^+pi^-$ decay, we show that there is a narrow dip around 1 GeV in the $pipi$ invariant mass distribution, caused by the final-state interactions. The distribution is clearly different from that in similar transitions from lower $Upsilon$ states, and needs to be verified by future data with high statistics. Also we predict the decay width and the dikaon mass distribution of the $Upsilon(4S) rightarrow Upsilon(1S) K^+ K^-$ process.
Using a sample of 122 million Upsilon(3S) events recorded with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at SLAC, we search for the $h_b(1P)$ spin-singlet partner of the P-wave chi_{bJ}(1P) states in the sequential decay Upsilo n(3S) --> pi0 h_b(1P), h_b(1P) --> gamma eta_b(1S). We observe an excess of events above background in the distribution of the recoil mass against the pi0 at mass 9902 +/- 4(stat.) +/- 2(syst.) MeV/c^2. The width of the observed signal is consistent with experimental resolution, and its significance is 3.1sigma, including systematic uncertainties. We obtain the value (4.3 +/- 1.1(stat.) +/- 0.9(syst.)) x 10^{-4} for the product branching fraction BF(Upsilon(3S)-->pi0 h_b) x BF(h_b-->gamma eta_b).
The dipion transitions $Upsilon(2S,3S,4S) to Upsilon(1S,2S)pipi$ are systematically studied by considering the mechanisms of the hadronization of soft gluons, exchanging the bottomoniumlike $Z_b$ states, and the bottom-meson loops. The strong pion-pi on final-state interaction, especially including the channel coupling to $Kbar{K}$ in the $S$-wave, is taken into account in a model-independent way using the dispersion theory. Through fitting to the available experimental data, we extract values of the transition chromopolarizabilities $|alpha_{Upsilon(mS)Upsilon(nS)}|$, which measure the chromoelectric couplings of the bottomonia with soft gluons. It is found that the $Z_b$ exchange has a slight impact on the extracted chromopolarizablity values, and the obtained $|alpha_{Upsilon(2S)Upsilon(1S)}|$ considering the $Z_b$ exchange is $(0.29pm 0.20)~text{GeV}^{-3}$. Our results could be useful in studying the interactions of bottomonium with light hadrons.
We calculate the cross sections and final state distributions for the processes e^+ e^- --> Upsilon(1S) (pi^+ pi^-, K^+ K^-, eta pi^0) near the Upsilon(5S) resonance based on the tetraquark hypothesis. This framework is used to analyse the data on th e Upsilon(1S) pi^+ pi^- and Upsilon(1S) K^+ K^- final states [K.F. Chen et al. (Belle Collaboration), Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 112001 (2008); I. Adachi et al. (Belle Collaboration), arXiv:0808.2445], yielding good fits. Dimeson invariant mass spectra in these processes are shown to be dominated by the corresponding light scalar and tensor states. The resulting correlations among the cross sections are worked out. We also predict sigma(e^+ e^- --> Upsilon(1S) K^+ K^-)/sigma(e^+ e^- --> Upsilon(1S) K^0 Kbar^0) = 1/4. These features provide crucial tests of the tetraquark framework and can be searched for in the currently available and forthcoming data from the B factories.
Using a sample of $771.6 times 10^{6}$ $Upsilon(4S)$ decays collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider, we observe for the first time the transition $Upsilon(4S) to eta h_b(1P)$ with the branching fraction ${cal B}[Upsilon(4S) to eta h_b(1P)]= (2.18 pm 0.11 pm 0.18) times 10^{-3}$ and we measure the $h_b(1P)$ mass $M_{h_{b}(1P)} = (9899.3 pm 0.4 pm 1.0)$ MeV/$c^{2}$, corresponding to the hyperfine splitting $Delta M_{mathrm HF}(1P) = (0.6 pm 0.4 pm 1.0)$ MeV/$c^{2}$. Using the transition $h_b(1P) to gamma eta_b(1S)$, we measure the $eta_b(1S)$ mass $M_{eta_{b}(1S)} = (9400.7 pm 1.7 pm 1.6)$ MeV/$c^{2}$, corresponding to $Delta M_{mathrm HF}(1S) = (59.6 pm 1.7 pm 1.6)$ MeV/$c^{2}$, the $eta_b(1S)$ width $Gamma_{eta_{b}(1S)} = (8 ^{+6}_{-5} pm 5)$ MeV/$c^{2}$ and the branching fraction ${cal B}[h_b(1P) to gamma eta_b(1S)]= (56 pm 8 pm 4) %$.
