KEKB Accelerator Asymmetric energy collision of electron = 8GeV, and positron = 3.5GeV Ring circumference : 3km RF frequency : 508MHz Target Luminosity = 1034 /cm^2/sec to produce more than 100 million B meson pairs in a year
KEKB Detector
Analyzed data 85 million BB events (78fb -1 ) at the (4S) resonance recorded by the Belle before the summer 2002 are used in this analysis.

Summary
Conclusion 1. spectrum can be compared with theorist's prediction. 2. Glueball search => giving upper limit. 3. The branching fraction of are different while we don't see this kind phenomenon in the relative modes, e.g., J/K and J/Ks, because of different isospin components.
