Recent Bottomonium Results from Belle

ORAL

Abstract

Using a 121 $fb^{-1}$ data sample collected in e+e- collisions near the peak of the $\Upsilon(5S)$ resonance, the Belle Collaboration has over the past year obtained several significant results concerning singlet-P ($h_b$) and singlet-S ($\eta_b$) states of the bottomonium system, and, additionally, for charged bottomonium-like states denoted $Z_b$. In this talk we will present results of measurements of the masses of singlet-P and singlet-S states, branching fractions for radiative transitions from singlet-P to singlet-S, and studies of the charged $Z_b$ states through which the singlet-P state production is understood to occur.
