Problems of Double Charm Production in $e^+e^-$ Annihilation at $\sqrt{s}=10.6$ GeV
Abstract
Using the nonrelativistic QCD(NRQCD) factorization formalism, we calculate the color-singlet cross sections for exclusive production processes ~ and ~~ at the center-of-mass energy =10.6 GeV. The cross sections are estimated to be 5.5fb, 6.7fb, 1.1fb, and 1.6fb for and , respectively. The calculated production rate is smaller than the recent Belle data by about an order of magnitude, which might indicate the failure of perturbative QCD calculation to explain the double-charmonium production data. The complete color-singlet cross section for is calculated. In addition, we also evaluate the ratio of exclusive to inclusive production cross sections. The ratio of production to production could be consistent with the experimental data.
