The photoproduction of beauty quarks in ep collisions has been measured using a data sample of 170 pb-1 collected with the H1 detector at HERA-II in the years 2006 and 2007. Beauty photoproduction events are investigated with two jets and a muon in the final state. Visible cross sections are measured differentially in the transverse momenta of the highest energy jet and the muon, in the...

BaBar and Belle have measured many properties, like masses, widths and quantum numbers of these states. The recent measurements are presented in this talk. Despite the progress on experimental and theoretical side a consistent picture explaining all states has not emerged.

I discuss several recent highly accurate theoretical predictions for masses of baryons containing the b quark, as well as an effective supersymmetry between heavy quark baryons and mesons. I also suggest some possibilities for observing exotic hadrons containing heavy quarks.

We present recent CDF results on the properties of hadrons containing heavy quarks. These include a new measurement of the Bc production rate and updated measurement of Bs and Lambda_b lifetimes.

We report on the possibilities of measuring charmonia and bottom production with the LHCb experiment. Using reconstructed J/psi decays to mu+ mu-, both the prompt J/psi and b -> J/psi production cross-sections in pp collisions at LHC energies will be determined in the J/psi eta range 2-5. Due to the very large statistics, this analysis will be possible very early after the LHC start. Other...

We present the study of the exclusive production of charmonia via the reactions p + pbar --> p + X + p with X being a centrally produced J/psi, psi(2s) or chi_c, using 1.48 fb-1 of proton-antiproton collision data collected by the Run-II Collider Detector at Fermilab at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV

The Bc mass and lifetime measurements using the exclusive decay Bc->Jpsi pi at the LHCb experiment were studied. About 310 signal events are expected for a data set which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1 fb-1, with a B/S ratio around 2. Based on these data, the Bc mass and lifetime can be measured with expected statistical errors below 2 MeV/c^2 and 30 fs, respectively.

We present expected sensitivities for the measurement of the charmonium production cross section in pp collisions using the CMS detector at the LHC. The analysis is performed on a Monte Carlo sample simulating expected conditions for early data, and includes lifetime information to separate prompt and non-prompt J/psi production.

Although predicted by the quark model only a few of the B baryons predicted had been observed. D0 set out to search for two of those predicted, the Cascade_b and the Omega_b. The Cascade_b was observed in 2007 and the Omega_b in 2008. The search and observation was possible thanks to the reprocessing of events that include J/psi in such a way that the efficiency to reconstruct low pT charged...

ATLAS prepared a program for measurements of production cross sections both of b-hadrons and Onia in central proton-proton collisions at new energy 14 TeV of LHC.
Dedicated triggers based on muon, di-muon or electron signatures are designed to accommodate large statistics with already first several months. Starting from semi-inclusive measurements for very early stage exclusive channels...

I discuss heavy quark production near threshold. I present results for the two-loop soft anomalous dimension, which is derived from dimensionally regularized eikonal diagrams with heavy quarks and controls soft-gluon emission in heavy quark production. Detailed results for the UV poles of the eikonal integrals will be shown. The construction of the soft anomalous dimension at two-loops allows...
