Abstract: In the Standard Model (SM) charmless hadronic decays $B_s^0 \rightarrow ��^\prime ��$ proceed via tree-level $b\to u$ and penguin $b\to s$ transitions. Penguin transitions are sensitive to Beyond-the-Standard-Model (BSM) physics scenarios and could affect the branching fractions and {\it CP} asymmetries in such decays. Once branching fractions for two-body decays $B_s \to ��, ��^{\prime}, ��^{\prime}��^{\prime} $ are measured, and the theoretical uncertainties are reduced, it would be possible to extract {\it CP} violating parameters from the data using the formalism based on SU(3)/U(3) symmetry. To achieve this goal, at least four of these six branching fractions need to be measured. Only the branching fraction for $B_s^0 \to ��^{\prime}��^{\prime}$ has been measured so far.

Abstract: We report results from a study of hadronic transitions of the $��_{bJ}(nP)$ states of bottomonium at Belle. The $P$-wave states are reconstructed in transitions to the $��(1S)$ with the emission of an $��$ meson. The transitions of the $n=2$ triplet states provide a unique laboratory in which to study nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics, as the kinematic threshold for production of an $��$ and $��(1S)$ lies between the $J=0$ and $J=1$ states. A search for the $��_{bJ}(3P)$ states is also reported.

Abstract: We report an experimental determination of the isospin of $��_c(2765)^+/��_c(2765)^+$ using 980 fb$^{-1}$ data in the $e^+e^-$ annihilation around $\sqrt{s} = 10.6$ GeV collected by the Belle detector located at the KEKB collider. The isospin partners are searched for in the $��_c(2455)^{++/0} ��^{0}$ channels, and no evidence was obtained. Thus the isospin is determined to be zero, and the particle is established to be a $��_c$., Conference paper submitted for Hadron2019

Abstract: We report the results of a search for the $B \to Y(4260) K, ~Y(4260)\to J/��^+��^-$ decays. This study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711~fb$^{-1}$, collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. We investigate the $J/��^+��^-$ invariant mass distribution in the range 4.0 to 4.6 GeV/$c^2$ using both $B^+ \to J/��^+��^- K^+$ and $B^0 \to J/��^+��^- K^0_S$ decays. We find excesses of events above the background levels, with a significances of 2.1 and 0.9 standard deviations for charged and neutral $B \to Y(4260) K$ decays, respectively, taking into account the systematic uncertainties. These correspond to upper limits on the product of branching fractions, ${\cal B}(B^+ \to Y(4260) K^+) \times {\cal B}(Y(4260) \to J/��^+ ��^-), 8 pages, 3 figures, 3 tables

Abstract: We study bottomonium production in association with an $��$ meson in $e^+e^-$ annihilations near the $��(5S)$, at a center of mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=10.866\,$GeV. The results are based on the $121.4\,$fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected by the Belle experiment at the asymmetric energy KEKB collider. Only the $��$ meson is reconstructed and the missing-mass spectrum of $��$ candidates is investigated. We observe the $e^+e^-\to��_J(1D)$ process and find evidence for the $e^+e^-\to��(2S)$ process, while no significant signals of $��(1S)$, $h_b(1P)$, nor $h_b(2P)$ are found.

Abstract: We present the first measurements of absolute branching fractions of $��_c^0$ decays into $��^- ��^+$, $��K^- ��^+$, and $p K^- K^- ��^+$ final states. The measurements are made using a data set comprising $(772\pm 11)\times 10^{6}$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. We first measure the absolute branching fraction for $B^- \to \bar��_c^- ��_c^0$ using a missing-mass technique; the result is ${\cal B}(B^- \to \bar��_c^- ��_c^0) = (9.51 \pm 2.10 \pm 0.88) \times 10^{-4}$. We subsequently measure the product branching fractions ${\cal B}(B^- \to \bar��_c^- ��_c^0){\cal B}(��_c^0 \to ��^- ��^+)$, ${\cal B}( B^- \to \bar��_c^- ��_c^0) {\cal B}(��_c^0 \to ��K^- ��^+)$, and ${\cal B}( B^- \to \bar��_c^- ��_c^0) {\cal B}(��_c^0 \to p K^- K^- ��^+)$ with improved precision. Dividing these product branching fractions by the result for $B^- \to \bar��_c^- ��_c^0$ yields the following branching fractions: ${\cal B}(��_c^0 \to ��^- ��^+)= (1.80 \pm 0.50 \pm 0.14)\%$, ${\cal B}(��_c^0 \to ��K^- ��^+)=(1.17 \pm 0.37 \pm 0.09)\%$, and ${\cal B}(��_c^0 \to p K^- K^- ��^+)=(0.58 \pm 0.23 \pm 0.05)\%.$ For the above branching fractions, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. Our result for ${\cal B}(��_c^0 \to ��^- ��^+)$ can be combined with $��_c^0$ branching fractions measured relative to $��_c^0 \to ��^- ��^+$ to yield other absolute $��_c^0$ branching fractions., 7 pages, 3 figures, 1 table; accepted for publication as a Letter in Physical Review Letters

Abstract: We have searched for the lepton-flavor-violating decay $B^{0}\to K^{\ast 0} ��^{\pm} e^{\mp}$ using a data sample of 711 $fb^{-1}$ that contains $772 \times 10^{6}$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs. The data were collected near the $��(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. No signals were observed, and we set 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions of ${\cal B}(B^{0}\to K^{\ast 0} ��^{+} e^{-})< 1.2\times 10^{-7}$, ${\cal B}(B^{0}\to K^{\ast 0} ��^{-} e^{+})< 1.6\times 10^{-7}$, and, for both decays combined, ${\cal B}(B^{0}\to K^{\ast 0} ��^{\pm} e^{\mp}) < 1.8\times 10^{-7}$. These are the most stringent limits on these decays to date., to appear in PRD(RC)

Abstract: We report the observation of $��(2S)\to��_{b}(1S)$ decay based on analysis of the inclusive photon spectrum of $24.7$ fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+ e^-$ collisions at the $��(2S)$ center-of-mass energy collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. We measure a branching fraction of $\mathcal{B}(��(2S)\to��_{b}(1S))=(6.1^{+0.6+0.9}_{-0.7-0.6})\times 10^{-4}$, and derive an $��_{b}(1S)$ mass of $9394.8^{+2.7+4.5}_{-3.1-2.7}$ MeV/$c^{2}$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The significance of our measurement is greater than 7 standard deviations, constituting the first observation of this decay mode.

The following branching fractions are measured: $\mathcal{B}$(\OKPHSP) $=$ $(4.22^{+0.45}_{-0.44}\pm 0.51)\times10^{-6}$, $\mathcal{B}$(\SKPHSP) $=$ $(3.81^{+0.39}_{-0.37} \pm 0.45)\times 10^{-6}$, $\mathcal{B}$(\ETACD+c.c.) $=$ $(2.91^{+0.37}_{-0.35}\pm 0.36)\times 10^{-3}$ and $\mathcal{B}$(\PLPHI) $=$ $(8.18 \pm 2.15 \pm 0.79)\times10^{-7}$, where c.c. denotes the corresponding charge-conjugation process. The intermediate resonance decays are excluded in the four-body decay measurements. We also found evidences for $\mathcal{B}$(\ETACS+c.c.) $=$ $(3.59 \pm 1.52 \pm 0.47) \times 10^{-3}$ and $\mathcal{B}$(\LLKO) $=$ $(2.30 \pm 0.65 \pm 0.25) \times 10^{-6}$.

Abstract: We present first evidence that the cosine of the CP-violating weak phase $2��$ is positive, and hence exclude trigonometric multifold solutions of the CKM Unitarity Triangle using a time-dependent Dalitz plot analysis of $B^{0} \to D^{(*)} h^{0}$ with $D \to K_{S}^{0} ��^{+} ��^{-}$ decays, where $h^{0} \in \{��^{0}, ��, ��\}$ denotes a light unflavored and neutral hadron. The measurement is performed combining the final data sets of the BaBar and Belle experiments collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance at the asymmetric-energy B factories PEP-II at SLAC and KEKB at KEK, respectively. The data samples contain $( 471 \pm 3 )\times 10^6\, B\bar{B}$ pairs recorded by the BaBar detector and $( 772 \pm 11 )\times 10^6\, B\bar{B}$ pairs recorded by the Belle detector. The results of the measurement are $\sin{2��} = 0.80 \pm 0.14 \,(\rm{stat.}) \pm 0.06 \,(\rm{syst.}) \pm 0.03 \,(\rm{model})$ and $\cos{2��} = 0.91 \pm 0.22 \,(\rm{stat.}) \pm 0.09 \,(\rm{syst.}) \pm 0.07 \,(\rm{model})$. The result for the direct measurement of the angle $��$ of the CKM Unitarity Triangle is $��= \left( 22.5 \pm 4.4 \,(\rm{stat.}) \pm 1.2 \,(\rm{syst.}) \pm 0.6 \,(\rm{model}) \right)^{\circ}$. The quoted model uncertainties are due to the composition of the $D^{0} \to K_{S}^{0} ��^{+} ��^{-}$ decay amplitude model, which is newly established by performing a Dalitz plot amplitude analysis using a high-statistics $e^{+}e^{-} \to c\bar{c}$ data sample. CP violation is observed in $B^{0} \to D^{(*)} h^{0}$ decays at the level of $5.1$ standard deviations. The significance for $\cos{2��}>0$ is $3.7$ standard deviations. The trigonometric multifold solution $��/2 - ��= (68.1 \pm 0.7)^{\circ}$ is excluded at the level of $7.3$ standard deviations. The measurement resolves an ambiguity in the determination of the apex of the CKM Unitarity Triangle., To be submitted to Physical Review Letters

We measure $\sin{2��} = 0.80 \pm 0.14 \,(\rm{stat.}) \pm 0.06 \,(\rm{syst.}) \pm 0.03 \,(\rm{model})$ and $\cos{2��} = 0.91 \pm 0.22 \,(\rm{stat.}) \pm 0.09 \,(\rm{syst.}) \pm 0.07 \,(\rm{model})$.

Abstract: We report a measurement of the cross section for $K^0_S$ pair production in single-tag two-photon collisions, $\gamma^* \gamma \to K^0_S K^0_S$, for $Q^2$ up to 30 GeV$^2$, where $Q^2$ is the negative of the invariant mass squared of the tagged photon. The measurement covers the kinematic range 1.0 GeV < W < 2.6 GeV and $|\cos \theta^*| < 1.0$ for the total energy and kaon scattering angle, respectively, in the $\gamma^* \gamma$ center-of-mass system. These results are based on a data sample of 759 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. For the first time, the transition form factor of the $f_2'(1525)$ meson is measured separately for the helicity-0, -1, and -2 components and also compared with theoretical calculations. Finally, the partial decay widths of the $\chi_{c0}$ and $\chi_{c2}$ mesons are measured as a function of $Q^2$., Comment: 22 pages, 18 figures, 7 tables, Belle Preprint 2017-25, KEK Preprint 2017-36, Submitted to Physical Review D

Abstract: The precise determination of the CKM matrix element $\left| V_{cb}\right|$ is important for carrying out tests of the flavour sector of the Standard Model. In this article we present a preliminary analysis of the $\bar B^0 \to D^{*\,+} \, \ell^- \, \bar ��_\ell$ decay mode and its charge conjugate, selected in events that contain a fully reconstructed $B$-meson, using 772 million $e^+ \, e^- \to ��(4S) \to B \bar B$ events recorded by the Belle detector at KEKB. Unfolded differential decay rates of four kinematic variables fully describing the $\bar B^0 \to D^{*\,+} \, \ell^- \, \bar ��_\ell$ decay in the $B$-meson rest frame are presented. We measure the total branching fraction $\mathcal{B}( \bar B^0 \to D^{*\,+} \, \ell^- \, \bar ��_\ell ) = \left(4.95 \pm 0.11 \pm 0.22 \right) \times 10^{-2}$, where the errors are statistical and systematic respectively. The value of $\left|V_{cb} \right|$ is determined to be $\left( 37.4 \pm 1.3 \right) \times 10^{-3}$. Both results are in good agreement with current world averages.

Abstract: We present a measurement of the Michel parameters of the $��$ lepton, $\bar��$ and $��$, in the radiative leptonic decay $��^- \rightarrow \ell^- ��_�� \bar��_{\ell} ��$ using 711~f$\mathrm{b}^{-1}$ of collision data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. The Michel parameters are measured in an unbinned maximum likelihood fit to the kinematic distribution of $e^+e^-\rightarrow��^+��^-\rightarrow (��^+��^0 \bar��_��)(\ell^-��_��\bar��_{\ell}��)$ $(\ell=e$ or $��)$. The measured values of the Michel parameters are $\bar�� = -1.3 \pm 1.5 \pm 0.8$ and $��= 0.5 \pm 0.4 \pm 0.2$, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. This is the first measurement of these parameters. These results are consistent with the Standard Model predictions within their uncertainties and constrain the coupling constants of the generalized weak interaction.

Abstract: We measure the branching fraction and $CP$ violation asymmetry in the decay $B^{0}\to ��^{0}��^{0}$, using a data sample of $752\times 10^{6}$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. The obtained branching fraction and direct $CP$ asymmetry are $ \mathcal{B}(B\to ��^{0}��^{0}) = [1.31 \pm 0.19~ \text{(stat.)} \pm 0.19~ \text{(syst.)}] \times 10^{-6}$ and $ A_{CP} = +0.14 \pm 0.36~ \text{(stat.)} \pm 0.10~ \text{(syst.)}, $ respectively. The signal significance, including the systematic uncertainty, is 6.4 standard deviations. We combine these results with Belle's earlier measurements of $B^{0}\to ��^{+} ��^{-}$ and $B^{\pm} \to ��^{\pm} ��^{0}$ to exclude the $CP$-violating parameter $��_{2}$ from the range $15.5^{\circ} < ��_{2} < 75.0^{\circ}$ at 95\% confidence level., 8 pages, 2 figures

Abstract: We report the first observation of the $��_{c}(2930)^0$ charmed-strange baryon with a significance greater than 5$��$. The $��_{c}(2930)^0$ is found in its decay to $K^- ��_{c}^+$ in $B^{-} \to K^{-} ��_{c}^{+} \bar��_{c}^{-}$ decays. The measured mass and width are $[2928.9 \pm 3.0(\rm stat.)^{+0.9}_{-12.0}(\rm syst.)]$ MeV/$c^{2}$ and $[19.5 \pm 8.4(\rm stat.) ^{+5.9}_{-7.9}(\rm syst.)]$ MeV, respectively, and the product branching fraction is ${\cal B}(B^{-} \to ��_{c}(2930)^0 \bar��_{c}^{-}) {\cal B}(��_{c}(2930)^0 \to K^- ��_{c}^{+})=[1.73 \pm 0.45(\rm stat.) \pm 0.21(\rm syst.)]\times 10^{-4}$. We also measure ${\cal B}(B^{-} \to K^{-} ��_{c}^{+} \bar��_{c}^{-}) = [4.80 \pm 0.43(\rm stat.) \pm 0.60(\rm syst.)] \times 10^{-4}$ with improved precision, and search for the charmonium-like state $Y(4660)$ and its spin partner, $Y_��$, in the $��_{c}^{+}\bar��_{c}^{-}$ invariant mass spectrum. No clear signals of the $Y(4660)$ nor its spin partner are observed and the 90\% credibility level (C.L.) upper limits on their production rates are determined. These measurements are obtained from a sample of $(772\pm11)\times 10^{6} B\bar{B}$ pairs collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider., 7 pages, 5 figures; accepted for publication in European Physical Journal C

Abstract: We perform a full amplitude analysis of the process $e^+ e^- \rightarrow J/��D \bar{D}$, where $D$ refers to either $D^0$ or $D^+$. A new charmoniumlike state $X^*(3860)$ that decays to $D \bar{D}$ is observed with a significance of $6.5��$. Its mass is ($3862^{+26}_{-32}{}^{+40}_{-13}$) MeV/$c^2$ and width is ($201^{+154}_{-67}{}^{+88}_{-82}$) MeV. The $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ hypothesis is favored over the $2^{++}$ hypothesis at the level of $2.5��$. The analysis is based on the 980 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data sample collected by the Belle detector at the asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider KEKB., 17 pages, 11 figures

Abstract: We study hadronic transitions between bottomonium states using 496 fb$^{-1}$ data collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. We measure: ${\cal B}(��(4S)\to��^+��^-��(1S))=(8.2\pm 0.5 {\rm(stat.)} \pm 0.4 {\rm(syst.)})\times10^{-5}$, ${\cal B}(��(4S)\to��^+��^-��(2S))=(7.9\pm 1.0 {\rm(stat.)} \pm 0.4 {\rm(syst.)})\times10^{-5}$, and ${\cal B}(��(4S)\to��(1S))=(1.70\pm 0.23 {\rm(stat.)} \pm 0.08 {\rm(syst.)})\times10^{-4}$. We measure the ratio of branching fractions ${\cal R} = {\cal B}(��(4S)\to��(1S))/{\cal B}(��(4S)\to��^+��^-��(1S)) = 2.07\pm 0.30 {\rm(stat.)} \pm 0.11 {\rm(syst.)}$. We search for the decay $��(1^3D_{1,2})\to��(1S)$, but do not find significant evidence for such a transition. We also measure the initial state radiation production cross sections of the $��(2S,3S)$ resonances and we find values compatible with the expected ones. Finally, the analysis of the $��(4S)\to��^+��^-��(1S)$ events shows indications for a resonant contribution due to the $f_0(980)$ meson., 11 pages, 7 figures, 6 tables. Submitted to PRD

Abstract: We report the first measurement of the $T$-odd moments in the decay $D^{0} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0} ��^{+} ��^{-} ��^{0}$ from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $966\,{\rm fb}^{-1}$ collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. From these moments we determine the $CP$-violation-sensitive asymmetry $a_{CP}^{T\text{-odd}} = \left[-0.28 \pm 1.38 ~(\rm{stat.}) ^{+0.23}_{-0.76} ~(\rm{syst.})\right] \times 10^{-3}$, which is consistent with no $CP$ violation. In addition, we perform $a_{CP}^{T\text{-odd}}$ measurements in different regions of the $D^{0} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0} ��^{+} ��^{-} ��^{0}$ phase space; these are also consistent with no $CP$ violation.

Abstract: We report a study of the charmless hadronic decay of the charged $B$ meson to the three-body final state $K^+ K^- ��^+$. The results are based on a data sample that contains $772\times10^6$ $B \bar{B}$ pairs collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. The measured inclusive branching fraction and the direct $CP$ asymmetry are $(5.38\pm0.40\pm0.35)\times 10^{-6}$ and $-0.170\pm0.073\pm0.017$, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. The $K^{+}K^{-}$ invariant mass distribution of the signal candidates shows an excess in the region below $1.5$ GeV/$c^2$, which is consistent with the previous studies from BaBar and LHCb. In addition, strong evidence of a large direct $CP$ asymmetry is found in the $K^{+}K^{-}$ low-invariant-mass region., 7 pages, 3 figures

Abstract: We present the results of a search for the rare decays $B\to h��\overline��$, where $h$ stands for $K^+,\:K^0_{\mathrm{S}},\:K^{\ast +},\:K^{\ast 0},\:��^+,\:��^0,\:��^+$ and $��^{0}$. The results are obtained with $772\times10^{6}$ $B\overline{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+ e^-$ collider. We reconstruct one $B$ meson in a semileptonic decay and require a single $h$ meson but nothing else on the signal side. We observe no significant signal and set upper limits on the branching fractions. The limits set on the $B\to K^0_{\mathrm{S}}��\overline��$, $B^0\to K^{*0}��\overline��$, $B\to ��^+��\overline��$, $B^0\to��^0��\overline��$, $B^+\to��^+��\overline��$, and $B^0\to��^0��\overline��$ channels are the world's most stringent., Submitted to PRD

We use the full data sample of $772 \times 10^6$ $B{\bar B}$ pairs recorded with the Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider. Our results, $P_��(D^*) = -0.38 \pm 0.51 {\rm (stat.)} ^{+0.21}_{-0.16} {\rm (syst.)}$ and $R(D^*) = 0.270 \pm 0.035{\rm (stat.)} ^{+0.028}_{-0.025}{\rm (syst.)}$, are consistent with the theoretical predictions of the Standard Model., 7 pages, 2 figures, submitted to Physical Review Letters; one figure was removed from the first version

Abstract: We report the first observation of the polarization of $��/\bar��$ hyperons transverse to its production plane in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. We observe a significant polarization that rises with the fractional energy carried by the hyperon as well as its transverse momentum. To define the production plane, we use the direction of the hyperon momentum together with either the thrust axis in the event or the momentum vector of a hadron in the opposite hemisphere. Furthermore, we investigate the contributions to the hyperon polarization from the feed-down from $��^0/\bar��^0$ and $��_c^{\pm}$ decays. This measurement uses a dataset of 800.4fb$^{-1}$ collected by the Belle experiment at or near a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV., 14 pages, 7 figures

Abstract: Using a data sample of 980 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data taken with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider, we report the results of a study of excited $��_c$ states that decay, via the emission of photons and/or charged pions, into $��_c^0$ or $��_c^+$ ground state charmed-strange baryons. We present new measurements of the masses of all members of the $��_c^{\prime}$, $��_c(2645)$, $��_c(2790)$, $��_c(2815)$, and $��_c(2980)$ isodoublets, measurements of the intrinsic widths of those that decay strongly, and evidence of previously unknown transitions., Submitted to PRD

Abstract: We report the discovery of $��_{c}(3055)^{0}$, observed by its decay into the final state $��D^{0}$, and present the first observation and evidence of the decays of $��_c(3055)^{+}$ and $��_c(3080)^{+}$ into $��D^{+}$. We also perform a combined analysis of the $��D^{+}$ with the $��_{c}^{++}K^{-}$ and $��_{c}^{\ast ++}K^{-}$ decay modes to measure the ratios of branching fractions, masses and widths with improved accuracy. We measure the ratios of branching fractions ${\cal B}(��_{c}(3055)^{+} \to ��D^{+})/{\cal B}(��_{c}(3055)^{+} \to ��_{c}^{++}K^{-})=5.09\pm1.01\pm0.76$, ${\cal B}(��_{c}(3080)^{+} \to ��D^{+})/{\cal B}(��_{c}(3080)^{+} \to ��_{c}^{++}K^{-})=1.29\pm0.30\pm0.15$, and ${\cal B}(��_{c}(3080)^{+} \to ��_{c}^{\ast ++}K^{-})/{\cal B}(��_{c}(3080)^{+} \to ��_{c}^{++}K^{-})=1.07\pm0.27\pm0.01$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic. The analysis is performed using a 980 fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider., Submitted to PRD

Abstract: We present the first measurement of the Michel parameters $\bar��$ and $��$ in the radiative leptonic decay of the $��$ lepton using 703 f$\mathrm{b}^{-1}$ of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. The Michel parameters are measured by an unbinned maximum likelihood fit to the kinematic information of $e^+e^-\rightarrow��^+��^-\rightarrow (��^+��^0 \bar��)(l^-��\bar��)$ $(l=e$ or $��)$. The preliminary values of the measured Michel parameters are $\bar�� = -2.0 \pm 1.5 \pm 0.8$ and $��= 0.6 \pm 0.4 \pm 0.2$, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic.

Abstract: We report the first measurement of the $��$ lepton polarization in the decay ${\bar B} \rightarrow D^* ��^- {\bar��_��}$ as well as a new measurement of the ratio of the branching fractions $R(D^{*}) = \mathcal{B}({\bar B} \rightarrow D^* ��^- {\bar��_��}) / \mathcal{B}({\bar B} \rightarrow D^* \ell^- {\bar��_{\ell}})$, where $\ell^-$ denotes an electron or a muon, with the decays $��^- \rightarrow ��^- ��_��$ and $��^- \rightarrow ��^- ��_��$. We use the full data sample of $772 \times 10^6$ $B{\bar B}$ pairs accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider. Our preliminary results, $R(D^*) = 0.276 \pm 0.034{\rm (stat.)} ^{+0.029} _{-0.026}{\rm (syst.)}$ and $P_�� = -0.44 \pm 0.47 {\rm (stat.)} ^{+0.20} _{-0.17} {\rm (syst.)}$, are consistent with the theoretical predictions of the Standard Model within $0.6$ standard deviation., 31 pages, 6 figures, ICHEP 2016

Abstract: We report a measurement of the CP violation parameter $��_1$ obtained in a time-dependent analysis of $B^0\to\bar{D}{}^{(*)0}h^0$ decays followed by $\bar{D}{}^0\to K_S^0��^+��^-$ decay. A model-independent measurement is performed using the binned Dalitz plot technique. The measured value is $��_1 = 11.7^{\circ}\pm7.8^{\circ}({\rm stat.})\pm 2.1^{\circ}({\rm syst.})$. Treating $\sin{2��_1}$ and $\cos{2��_1}$ as independent parameters, we obtain $\sin{2��_1} = 0.43\pm 0.27({\rm stat.})\pm 0.08({\rm syst.})$ and $\cos{2��_1} = 1.06\pm 0.33({\rm stat.})^{+0.21}_{-0.15}({\rm syst.})$.

Abstract: We report the first search for the $J^{PC}=0^{--}$ glueball in $��(1S)$ and $��(2S)$ decays with data samples of $(102\pm2)$ million and $(158\pm4)$ million events, respectively, collected with the Belle detector. No significant signals are observed in any of the proposed production modes, and the 90\% credibility level upper limits on their branching fractions in $��(1S)$ and $��(2S)$ decays are obtained. The inclusive branching fractions of the $��(1S)$ and $��(2S)$ decays into final states with a $��_{c1}$ are measured to be $\BR(��(1S)\to ��_{c1}+ anything) = (1.90\pm 0.43(stat.)\pm 0.14(syst.))\times 10^{-4}$ with an improved precision over prior measurements and $\BR(��(2S)\to ��_{c1}+ anything) = (2.24\pm 0.44(stat.)\pm 0.20(syst.))\times 10^{-4}$ for the first time., 19 pages, 17 figures, Fig.10b was polished, but all the results unchanged.

Abstract: The branching fractions of the $��(1S)$ inclusive decays into final states with a $J/��$ or a $��(2S)$ are measured with improved precision to be $\BR(��(1S)\to J/��+ {\rm anything})=(5.25\pm 0.13(\mathrm{stat.})\pm 0.25(\mathrm{syst.}))\times 10^{-4}$ and $\BR(��(1S)\to ��(2S) + {\rm anything})=(1.23\pm 0.17(\mathrm{stat.})\pm 0.11(\mathrm{syst.}))\times 10^{-4}$. The first search for $��(1S)$ decays into $XYZ$ states that decay into a $J/��$ or a $��(2S)$ plus one or two charged tracks yields no significant signals for $XYZ$ states in any of the examined decay modes, and upper limits on their production rates in $��(1S)$ inclusive decays are determined., 10 pages, 7 figures, 3 tables

Abstract: We report a study of radiative decays of ��_{bJ}(1P)(J=0,1,2) mesons into 74 hadronic final states comprising charged and neutral pions, kaons, protons; out of these, 41 modes are observed with at least 5 standard deviation significance. Our measurements not only improve the previous measurements by the CLEO Collaboration but also lead to first observations in many new modes. The large sample allows us to probe the total decay width of the ��_{b0}(1P). In the absence of a statistically significant result, a 90% confidence-level upper limit is set on the width at ��_{total}< 2.4 MeV. Our results are based on 24.7 fb^{-1} of e+e- collision data recorded by the Belle detector at the ��(2S) resonance, corresponding to (157.8\pm3.6)\times10^6 ��(2S) decays.

Abstract: We report a search for a dark vector gauge boson $U^\prime$ that couples to quarks in the decay chain $D^{*+} \to D^0 ��^+, D^0 \to K^0_S ��, ��\to U^\prime ��$, $U^\prime \to ��^+ ��^-$. No signal is found and we set a mass-dependent limit on the baryonic fine structure constant of $10^{-3} - 10^{-2}$ in the $U^\prime$ mass range of 290 to 520 MeV/$c^2$. This analysis is based on a data sample of 976 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider., 6 pages, 4 figures

Abstract: We report a measurement of the B0 and B+ meson decays to the Ds-KS0?+ and Ds-K+K+ final states, respectively, using 657�106BB� pairs collected at the ?(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. Using the Ds-???-, K?(892)0K- and KS0K- decay modes for the Ds reconstruction, we measure the following branching fractions: B(B0?Ds-KS0?+)=[0.47�0.06(stat)�0.05(syst)]�10-4 and B(B+?Ds-K+K+)=[0.93�0.22(stat)�0.10(syst)]�10-5. We find the ratio of the branching fraction of B+?Ds-K+K+ to that of the analogous Cabibbo-favored B+?Ds-K+?+ decay to be RB=0.054�0.013(stat)�0.006(syst), which is consistent with the naive factorization model. We also observe a deviation of the DsK invariant-mass distribution from the three-body phase-space model for both studied decays. � 2015 American Physical Society.

Abstract: We report a measurement of the amplitude ratio $r_S$ of $B^0 \to D^0K^{*0}$ and $B^0 \to \bar{D^0}K^{*0}$ decays with a model-independent Dalitz plot analysis using $D\to K_S^0��^+��^-$ decays. Using the full data sample of $772\times10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at KEKB accelerator the upper limit is $r_S < 0.87$ at the 68 % confidence level. This result is the first measurement of $r_S$ with a model-independent Dalitz analysis, and is consistent with results from other analyses. The value of $r_S$ indicates the sensitivity of the decay to $��_3$ because the statistical uncertainty is proportional to $1/r_S$. The $r_S$ result is obtained from observables ($x_\pm$, $y_\pm$) \begin{eqnarray} x_- &=& +0.4 ^{+1.0 +0.0}_{-0.6 -0.1} \pm0.0 \\ y_- &=& -0.6 ^{+0.8 +0.1}_{-1.0 -0.0} \pm0.1 \\ x_+ &=& +0.1 ^{+0.7 +0.0}_{-0.4 -0.1} \pm0.1 \\ y_+ &=& +0.3 ^{+0.5 +0.0}_{-0.8 -0.1} \pm0.1 \\ , \end{eqnarray} where $x_\pm = r_S \cos(��_S \pm ��_3)$, $y_\pm = r_S \sin(��_S \pm ��_3)$ and $��_3 (��_S)$ are the weak (strong) phase difference between $B^0 \to D^0K^{*0}$ and $B^0 \to \bar{D^0}K^{*0}$. The first uncertainty is statistical, the second is the experimental systematic and the third is the systematic due to the uncertainties on $c_i$ and $s_i$ parameters measured by CLEO.

Abstract: We report measurement of the cross section of e+e-??+?-?(2S) between 4.0 and 5.5 GeV, based on an analysis of initial state radiation events in a 980fb-1 data sample recorded with the Belle detector. The properties of the Y(4360) and Y(4660) states are determined. Fitting the mass spectrum of ?+?-?(2S) with two coherent Breit-Wigner functions, we find two solutions with identical mass and width but different couplings to electron-positron pairs: MY(4360)=(4347�6�3)MeV/c2, ?Y(4360)=(103�9�5)MeV, MY(4660)=(4652�10�8)MeV/c2, ?Y(4660)=(68�11�1)MeV, and B[Y(4360)??+?-?(2S)]�?Y(4360)e+e-=(10.9�0.6�0.7)eV and B[Y(4660)??+?-?(2S)]�?Y(4660)e+e-=(8.1�1.1�0.5)eV for one solution, or B[Y(4360)??+?-?(2S)]�?Y(4360)e+e-=(9.2�0.6�0.6)eV and B[Y(4660)??+?-?(2S)]�?Y(4660)e+e-=(2.0�0.3�0.2)eV for the other. Here, the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. Evidence for a charged charmoniumlike structure at 4.05GeV/c2 is observed in the ?�?(2S) intermediate state in the Y(4360) decays. � 2015 American Physical Society.

Abstract: We search for the process $B^0 \to ��^- ��^+ ��_��$ using the full Belle data set of $711\,{\rm fb}^{-1}$, corresponding to $772 \times 10^6 B\bar{B}$ pairs, collected at the $��(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. We reconstruct one $B$ meson in a hadronic decay and search for the $B^0 \to ��^- ��^+ ��_��$ process in the remainder of the event. No significant signal is observed and an upper limit of $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to ��^- ��^+ ��_��) < 2.5 \times 10^{-4}$ is obtained at the $90\%$ confidence level.

Abstract: We report a measurement of the branching fraction of B^+ -> tau^+ nu_tau decays using a 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. We reconstruct the accompanying B meson in a semileptonic decay and detect the recoiling B candidate in the decay channel B^+ -> tau^+ nu_tau. We obtain a branching fraction of BR(B^+ -> tau^+ nu_tau) = [1.25 +- 0.28 (stat.) +- 0.27 (syst.)] x 10^-4. This result is in good agreement with previous measurements and the expectation from the calculation based on the Standard Model., accepted by PRD(RC)

Abstract: We report on the first observations of B�0?D1(2430)0?, B�0?D1(2420)0?, and B�0?D2?(2460)0? decays. The B�0?D?+?(1450)- decay is also observed. The branching fraction measurements are based on (771.6�10.6)�106 BB� events collected at the (4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The fractions of longitudinal polarization of the D?? states as well as partial wave fractions of the D1(2430)0 are obtained. We also set a 90% confidence level upper limit for the product of branching fractions of B(B�0?D?+b1(1235)-)�B(b1(1235)-???-). The measurements show evidence of nontrivial final-state interaction phases for the ?-meson-like amplitudes. � 2015 American Physical Society.

Abstract: We report a search for $B$ decays to selected final states with the $\eta_c$ meson: $B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}\eta_c\pi^+\pi^-$, $B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}\eta_c\omega$, $B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}\eta_c\eta$ and $B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}\eta_c\pi^0$. The analysis is based on $772\times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. We set 90\% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions of the studied $B$ decay modes, independent of intermediate resonances, in the range $(0.6-5.3)\times 10^{-4}$. We also search for molecular-state candidates in the $D^0\bar{D}^{*0}-\bar{D}^0D^{*0}$, $D^0\bar{D}^0+\bar{D}^0D^0$ and $D^{*0}\bar{D}^{*0}+\bar{D}^{*0}D^{*0}$ combinations, neutral partners of the $Z(3900)^{\pm}$ and $Z(4020)^{\pm}$, and a poorly understood state $X(3915)$ as possible intermediate states in the decay chain, and set 90\% confidence level upper limits on the product of branching fractions to the mentioned intermediate states and decay branching fractions of these states in the range $(0.6-6.9)\times 10^{-5}$., Comment: 11 pages, 12 figures, accepted to JHEP

Abstract: We report a measurement of the differential cross section of $��^0$ pair production in single-tag two-photon collisions, $��^* ��\to ��^0 ��^0$, in $e^+ e^-$ scattering. The cross section is measured for $Q^2$ up to 30 GeV$^2$, where $Q^2$ is the negative of the invariant mass squared of the tagged photon, in the kinematic range 0.5 GeV < W < 2.1 GeV and $|\cos ��^*|$ < 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$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. The transition form factor of the $f_0(980)$ and that of the $f_2(1270)$ with the helicity-0, -1, and -2 components separately are measured for the first time and are compared with theoretical calculations., 36 pages, 37 figures, 11 tables, Belle Preprint 2015-15, KEK Preprint 2015-24
