Abstract

On the basis of the perturbative QCD and the relativistic quark model we investigate the relativistic and bound state effects in the production processes of a pair of SS-wave doubly heavy mesons with opposite charge conjugation consisting of bb and cc quarks. All possible relativistic corrections in the production amplitude including the terms connected with the transformation law of the bound state wave function to the reference frame of the moving pseudoscalar P{\cal P}- and vector V{\cal V}- mesons are taken into account. We obtain a growth of the cross section for the reaction e++eJ/Ψ+ηce^++e^-\to J/\Psi+ \eta_c due to considered effects by a factor 2÷2.52\div 2.5 in the range of the center-of-mass energy s=6÷12\sqrt{s}=6\div 12 GeV.
