In nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD), we study $e^+ e^- \to J/\psi(\psi(2S)) +\chi_{c0}$ at $B$ factories, where the P-wave state $\chi_{c0}$ is associated with an S-wave state $J/\psi$ or $\psi(2S)$. In contrast to the failure of factorization…

Most previous calculations of the annihilation decay rates of heavy quarkonium were based on factorization assumptions that were unproven and, in some cases, even incorrect. The recent development of a general factorization formula for…
In a typical exclusive quarkonium production process, when the center-of-mass energy, $\sqrt{s}$, is much greater than the heavy quark mass $m$, large kinematic logarithms of $s/m^2$ will unavoidably arise at each order of perturbative…
