Abstract

Exclusive decays of χcJ(J=0,2)\chi_{cJ}(J=0,2) into ϕϕ\phi\phi are investigated in the framework of perturbative quantum chromodynamics(pQCD) and \tpz\tpz quark pair creation model. The results show that these two mechanisms exhibit a quite different behavior in evaluating the decay width for the χc0\chi_{c0} and χc2\chi_{c2}. In pQCD method with nonrelativistic(NR) approximation, while the calculated \cxpp2\cxpp{2} decay width is comparable with measured one, the result for the \cxpp0\cxpp{0} decay width is suppressed and much smaller than experimental value. However, in \tpz\tpz quark pair creation model, the situation is reversed: the decay width of \cxpp0\cxpp{0} is greatly enhanced and can reproduce the large measured value, while the contribution to the \cxpp2\cxpp{2} decay width is small. The results suggest that while the pQCD mechanism is the dominant mechanism for \cxpp2\cxpp{2} decay, the \tpz\tpz quark pair creation mechanism is the dominant one for \cxpp0\cxpp{0} decay.
