We examine the subtle differences between two possible frameworks for the calculation of quarkonium production. The differences between the two methods are not a concern when one calculates only to leading order in the relativistic…
Using the nonrelativistic QCD(NRQCD) factorization formalism, we calculate the color-singlet cross sections for exclusive production processes ${e^++e^-\to J/\psi+\eta_c}$~ and ~$e^++e^-\to J/\psi + \chi_{cJ}$~$(J=0,1,2)$ at the…
In this paper, we study the next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QCD corrections for the process $e^+e^- \to J/\psi+J/\psi$ at the $B$ factories. By including the NNLO corrections, the cross section turns negative due to the poor…

We present the Non-Relativistic QCD (NRQCD) calculations at the next-to-leading order (NLO) of $\alpha_s$ for $B_c^*\to \eta_c$ vector, axial-vector, tensor and axial-tensor form factors, and obtain complete analytical expressions for the…
The processes of D^{(*)}-mesons and \Lambda_c-baryons production in e^+e^--annihilation at 10.58 GeV and 91.18 GeV energies are concerned. At the 10.58 GeV energy the production of charmed particles via the B-mesons decays is also…
Inspired by the recent measurements of the $\eta_c$ meson production at LHC, we investigate the relativistic correction effect for the fragmentation function of the gluon into $\eta_c$, which constitutes the crucial nonperturbative elements…
In heavy quarkonium production, the measured ratio $R_{c \bar c}=\sigma[J/\psi+ c\bar c + X]/\sigma[J/\psi +X]$ at B factories is much larger than existing theoretical predictions. To clarify this discrepancy, in nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD)…
The semileptonic decay form factors of the double heavy $B_{c}$ meson provide a unique opportunity to study the strong interactions between two heavy quarks. A fully relativistic model, with effective non-local quark-meson interactions, is…

We investigate the ${\mathcal O}(\alpha_s v^2)$ correction to the $e^+e^-\to J/\psi+\eta_c$ process in the nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization approach. Within some reasonable choices of the relative order-$v^2$ NRQCD matrix elements,…
We have calculated the complete electroweak O(alpha) radiative corrections to the single Higgs-boson production processes e+ e- --> nu_l anti-nu_l H (l=e,mu,tau) in the electroweak Standard Model. Initial-state radiation beyond O(alpha) is…

We consider rare semileptonic decays of a heavy $D$-meson into a light vector meson in the framework of QCD factorization. In contrast to the corresponding $B$-meson decays, the naive factorization hypothesis does not even serve as a first…
The cross section values of $J/\psi\ \eta_c$ and $J/\psi\ J/\psi$ production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation are estimated within one-loop approximation near $Z$ pole, as well as at higher energies. Both intermediate bosons, $\gamma$ and $Z$, are…
