Measurement of via initial state radiation at Belle
The process (=1, 2) is studied via initial
state radiation using 980 fb of data at and around the
(=1, 2, 3, 4, 5) resonances collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB
asymmetric-energy collider. No significant signal is observed except
from decays. Upper limits on the cross sections between
and are determined at the 90% credibility
level, which range from few pb to a few tens of pb. We also set upper limits on
the decay rate of the vector charmonium [), , and
] and charmoniumlike [, , and ] states

Study of pair production in single-tag two-photon collisions
We report a measurement of the differential cross section of pair
production in single-tag two-photon collisions, , in scattering. The cross section is measured for up to
30 GeV, where is the negative of the invariant mass squared of the
tagged photon, in the kinematic range 0.5 GeV < W < 2.1 GeV and < 1.0 for the total energy and pion scattering angle, respectively,
in the center-of-mass system. The results are based on a data
sample of 759 fb collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB
asymmetric-energy collider. The transition form factor of the
and that of the with the helicity-0, -1, and -2
components separately are measured for the first time and are compared with
theoretical calculations.Comment: 36 pages, 37 figures, 11 tables, Belle Preprint 2015-15, KEK Preprint

Evidence of and search for double-charmonium production in and decays
Using data samples of and
events collected with the Belle detector, a first experimental
search has been made for double-charmonium production in the exclusive decays
, where , , , , and . No significant signal is
observed in the spectra of the mass recoiling against the reconstructed
or except for the evidence of production with a
significance of for . The
measured branching fraction \BR(\Upsilon(1S)\rightarrow J/\psi+\chi_{c1}) is
. The
confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions of the other modes
having a significance of less than are determined. These results are
consistent with theoretical calculations using the nonrelativistic QCD
factorization approach.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, 1 table. The fit range was extended to include
X(4160) signal according to referee's suggestions. Other results unchanged.

Measurements of the and resonances via
We report new measurements of the total cross sections for ( = 1, 2, 3) and from a
high-luminosity fine scan of the region - GeV with the
Belle detector. We observe that the spectra have
little or no non-resonant component and extract from them the masses and widths
of and and their relative phase. We find

Observation of
We report the first observation of the decays . The data sample of fb used in this analysis corresponds
to million pairs, collected at the resonance by
the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy collider. We
observe and excesses of events for the two decay
modes and measure the branching fractions of and to be

respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are
systematic. These results are not compatible with the predictions based on the
generalized factorization approach. In addition, a threshold enhancement in the
di-baryon () system is observed, consistent with that observed
in similar decays.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures and 3 tables, submitted to PR
Observation of a new charged charmoniumlike state in B -> J/psi K pi decays
We present the results of an amplitude analysis of anti-B0 -> J/psi K- pi+
decays. A new charged charmoniumlike state Zc(4200)+ decaying to J/psi pi+ is
observed with a significance of 6.2 sigma. The mass and width of the Zc(4200)+
are 4196 +31-29 +17-13 MeV/c^2 and 370 +70-70 +70-132 MeV, respectively; the
preferred assignment of the quantum numbers is J^P = 1^+. In addition, we find
evidence for Zc(4430)+ -> J/psi pi+. The analysis is based on a 711 fb^-1 data
sample collected by the Belle detector at the asymmetric-energy e+ e- collider
KEKB.Comment: 14 pages, 13 figure
Measurement of the branching ratio of relative to decays with hadronic tagging at Belle
We report a measurement of the branching fraction ratios R(D(*)) of Bbar ->
D(*) tau- nubar_tau relative to Bbar -> D()* l- nubar_l (where l = e or mu)
using the full Belle data sample of 772 x 10^6 BBbar pairs collected at the
Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e-
collider. The measured values are R(D)= 0.375 +- 0.064(stat.) +- 0.026(syst.)
and R(D*) = 0.293 +- 0.038(stat.) +- 0.015(syst.). The analysis uses hadronic
reconstruction of the tag-side B meson and purely leptonic tau decays. The
results are consistent with earlier measurements and do not show a significant
deviation from the standard model prediction.Comment: Accepted for publication in Phys.Rev.
