We present a complete calculation of the cross section for neutralino annihilation into the two-gluon final state. This channel can be quite important for the phenomenology of neutralino annihilation due to the well-known helicity…
In this paper we study the lepton polarization asymmetry for the simileptonic OZI-forbidden annihilation B^-_c->\eta' \ell^- \bar{\nu} decay where \ell=\mu, \tau. Our results show that the branching ratio turn out to be of order 10^{-4}.…

The decay $Z^{0}\rightarrow Q+ \ell^{+}\ell^{-}$, where $Q$ is a $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ quarkonium state, has a very clean final state, which should make it easy to detect. The branching ratio of this mode is greater than $10^{-6}$ for $\rho$,…
The hadronic decays of quarkonium and the B meson inclusive decay into J/Psi + X, if treated in the zero-binding approximation, suggest a value of the strong coupling constant much smaller than the value implied in the standard model by…
