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…
The decay rates of $Q \bar Q$ mesons ($Q \varepsilon {c, b}$) are studied in the NRQCD formalism in terms of their short distance and long distance coefficients. The long distance coefficients are obtained through phenomenological potential…
