An experiment using the PLUTO detector has observed the formation of a narrow, high mass, resonance in e+e- annihilations at the DORIS storage ring. The mass is determined to be 9.46+/-0.01 GeV which is consistent with that of the Upsilon. The gaussian width σ is observed as 8+/-1 MeV and is equal to the DORIS energy resolution. This suggests that the resonance is a bound state of a new heavy quark-antiquark pair. An electronic width Γee=1.3+/-0.4 keV was obtained. In standard theoretical models, this favors a quark charge assignment of 1/3.
