Abstract: (Springer)
The decays of the χb1_{b1}(1P), χb2_{b2}(1P), χb1_{b1}(2P) and χb2_{b2}(2P) mesons into the Υ(1S)μ+^{+}μ^{−} final state are observed with a high significance using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb1^{−1}. The newly observed decays together with the Υ(2S) → Υ(1S)π+^{+}π^{−} and Υ(3S) → Υ(2S)π+^{+}π^{−} decay modes are used for precision measurements of the mass and mass splittings for the hidden-beauty states.[graphic not available: see fulltext]
