Abstract

The ratio of KSKSK_S K_S (KLKLK_L K_L) and KSKLK_S K_L production rates is calculated by considering K0K0barK^0 - K^0bar oscillation in J/ψK0K0barJ/\psi \to K^0K^0bar decay. The theoretical uncertainty due to strong interaction in J/ψJ/\psi decay is completely canceled in the ratio, therefore, the absolute branching fractions of the \CP violating processes of J/ψKSKSJ/\psi \to K_S K_S and KLKLK_L K_L can be cleanly and model-independently determined in case that J/ψKSKLJ/\psi \to K_S K_L decay is precisely measured. In the future τ\tau-Charm factory, the expected \CP violating process of J/ψKSKSJ/\psi \to K_S K_S should be reached. It is important to measure J/ψJ/\psi to KSKSK_S K_S and K_S K_L decays simultaneously, so that many systematic errors will be canceled. More precise measurements are suggested to examine the predicted isospin relation in J/ψKKbarJ/\psi \to KKbar decays. All results can be extended to decays of other vector quarkonia, ϕ\phi, ψ(2S)\psi(2S) and Υ(1S)\Upsilon(1S) and so on.
