The mass spectrum of b b ̄ states has been obtained using the phenomenological relativistic quark model (RQM). The Hamiltonian used in the investigation has confinement potential and confined one gluon exchange potential (COGEP). In the framework of RQM a study of M 1 and E 1 radiative decays of b b ̄ states has been made. An overall agreement is obtained with the experimental masses and decay widths. The possibility that some of the excited s wave b b ̄ states being exotic states is explored. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The mass spectra and decay properties of B and B s mesons are obtained using the nonrelativistic potential model by applying the variational approach. The quark–anti-quark potential used in our model consists of a Hulthen potential and a confining linear potential. The hyper-fine interaction is introduced to obtain the splittings of the spin-singlet and triplet states, while the spin–orbit and tensor interactions provide the fine structure splittings. The model parameters and the wave functions that reproduce the mass spectra are used to investigate the decay properties of B and B s mesons. The mass spectra of B and B s mesons have been enhanced using coupled channel effects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
