L. Motyka et K. Zalewski, OPTIMIZATION OF THE NONRELATIVISTIC POTENTIAL MODEL FOR B(B)OVER-BAR QUARKONIA, Zeitschrift fur Physik. C, Particles and fields, 69(2), 1996, pp. 343-346
A systematic study fa wide class of nonrelativistic models of b (b) ov
er bar quarkonia is described. It is found that the potential V(r) = 0
.706380(root r-0.460442/r) + 8.81715 (all in GeV) with the b-quark mas
s M(b) = 4.80303 GeV gives a satisfactory description of the experimen
tal data below the threshold for strong decays (chi(2)/DF = 6.5/7). Li
mitations and implications of this observation are discussed.
