We study the production of $J/\psi+c\bar{c}$ in $e^+e^-$ annihilation through two virtual photons. The cross section is estimated to be 23 fb at $\sqrt{s}=10.6$ GeV, which is smaller by a factor of six than the calculated cross section for…
In the $e^+e^-$ annihilation processes $e^+e^-\to D^0\bar{D}^0, D^+D^-$ near or above the threshold of $D\bar{D}$, there are not only the resonance contribution $e^+e^-\to \psi (3770)\to D^0\bar{D}^0, D^+D^-$, but also the continuum…
We calculate the exclusive cross sections for e^+ e^- annihilation into two charmonium states through a virtual photon. Purely electromagnetic contributions are surprisingly large, changing the cross sections by as much as 21%. The…

We analyze the exclusive pseudoscalar $D_{[s]}^+D_{[s]}^-$ pair production in $e^+e^-$ annihilations at $\sqrt{s}=10.6$ GeV using a non-factorized PQCD with the light-front wave function that goes beyond the peaking approximation. We…
It is shown that the nontrivial energy dependencies of $D\bar{D}$, $D\bar{D}^{*}$, and $D^{*}\bar{D}^{*}$ pair production cross sections in $e^{+}e^{- }$ annihilation are well described within the approach based on account for the…
The exclusive production of pairs of vector mesons with J^{PC} = 1^{--} in e^+ e^- collisions can proceed through e^+ e^- annihilation into two virtual photons. At energies much greater than the meson masses, the cross section is dominated…
Recent measurements by the Belle Collaboration of the exclusive production of two charmonia in e^+ e^- annihilation differ substantially from theoretical predictions. We suggest that a significant part of the discrepancy can be explained by…
We calculate the contributions from QED processes involving two virtual photons to the cross sections for e^+ e^- annihilation into two charmonium states with the same C-parity. Generically, the cross sections are three orders of magnitude…
A detailed investigation of the theoretical ambiguities present in the QCD description of photon production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation is given. It is pointed out that in a well-defined perturbative analysis it is necessary to subtract the…
We report a new measurement of the exclusive $e^+ e^- \to D^{(*) \pm} D^{*\mp}$ cross sections as a function of the center-of-mass energy from the $D^{(*) \pm} D^{* \mp}$ threshold through $\sqrt{s}=6.0$ GeV with initial-state radiation.…

Factorizing the cross section for single hadron production in $e^+e^-$ annihilations, differential in $z_h$, $P_T$ and thrust, is a highly non trivial task. We have devised a factorization scheme that allows us to recast the $e^+e^- \to hX$…
The exclusive Born cross sections of the production of $D^0$, $D^+$ and $D_s^+$ mesons in $e^+e^-$ annihilation at 13 energy points between 3.970 and 4.260 GeV are obtained by applying corrections for initial state radiation and vacuum…
We calculate cross sections of a pair $B_c$ meson production on the basis of two-photon mechanism from electron-positron annihilation. We investigate the production cross sections in nonrelativistic approximation and with the account of…
If the $X(3872)$ is a weakly bound charm-meson molecule, it can be produced in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation by the creation of $D^{*0} \bar D^{*0}$ from a virtual photon followed by the rescattering of the P-wave charm-meson pair into the $X$ and…
