Abstract: (arXiv)
The X(3872) and Y(4260), among a host of charmonium-like mesons, have rather unusual properties: the former has very small total width, the latter has large rate into π+πJ/ψ\pi^+\pi^-J/\psi channel. It would not be easy to settle between the many suggested explanations for their composition. We point out that discovering the bottom counterparts should shed much light on the issue. The narrow state can be searched for at the Tevatron via ppˉπ+πΥ+Xp\bar p \to \pi^+\pi^-\Upsilon + X, but the LHC should be much more promising. The state with large overlap with Υ\Upsilon can be searched for at B factories via radiative return e+eγISR+π+πΥe^+e^- \to \gamma_{\rm ISR} + \pi^+\pi^-\Upsilon on Υ(5S)\Upsilon(5S), or by e+eπ+πΥe^+e^- \to \pi^+\pi^-\Upsilon direct scan.
