  3. Volume 66B, number 3 PHYSICS LETTERS 31 January 1977 HEAVY QUARKS IN e÷e - ANNIHILATION* E. EICHTEN and K. GOTTFRIED Laboratory of Nuclear Studies, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, 14853, USA Received 16 November 1976 There are many speculations that there exist quarks Q considerably heavier than the charmed quark. Their QQ states will display a far richer spectrum of monochromatic photon and hadron transitions than charmonium. The most important features of this spectrum - in particular, its dependence on the mass of Q - are outlined. Eichten & Gottfried: CESR Proposal (November 1976) The literature bristles [ 1 ] with conjectured quarks I000 [~((iDick~75:(:i;L4'7.4:.::;~":':'~:~::";::::'::;;'~";#'~-;;~~:' considerably heavier than the charmed quark. We do not want to pass judgement on the plausibility of these speculations here. Our principal purpose is to point out a quite obvious fact: if such super-heavy quarks Q ac- tually exist and have masses mQ below 15 GeV, the new generation of e+e - storage rings will find a spec- trum of Q(~ bound states and resonances that is far W richer than the cc spectrum in the 3-5 GeV region. _g,~ _ This is so because for mQ ~> 3.5 GeV we expect three 351 bound states below the threshold for the Zweig- allowed decays of QQ. As a consequence, the QQ E (2 S ) − E (1 S ) ≈ 420 MeV ~oo spectrum will display a very intricate and complex m~ array of photon and hadron transitions.
