We study the fragmentation fractions $(f_{{\bf B}_b})$ of the $b$-quark to b-baryons (${\bf B}_b$). By the assumption of $f_{\Lambda_b}/(f_u+f_d)=0.25\pm 0.15$ in accordance with the measurements by LEP, CDF and LHCb Collaborations, we…

In the paper, we calculate the fragmentation functions for $g \to B_c$ and $g \to B_c^*$. The ultraviolet divergences in the calculation are removed through the renormalization of the operator definition of the fragmentation functions under…
The fragmentation fractions of c and b quarks into the weakly decaying charmed hadrons D0, D+, D_s+ and Lambda_c+, and into the charmed vector meson D*+ have been derived from the LEP measurements and averaged. The c quark fragmentation…

The processes of pair production of S- and P- wave charmonium, as well as the production of the tetraquark (cc \bar{c} \bar{c}) in the Higgs boson decays are investigated within the framework of relativistic quark model. Relativistic decay…
Recent experimental data from $pp$ collisions have shown a significant increase in heavy baryon production leading to a baryon over meson ratio which is one order of magnitude higher than elementary collisions ($e^+e^-$, $ep$). From a…
The cross-section for the double charmed baryon production at a $B$-factory is estimated on the basis of the perturbative QCD calculations for the $c c$-diquark production as well as of the quark-hadron duality.
In this paper, we compute the relativistic corrections to the fragmentation functions (FFs) of a heavy quark to $B_c$ and $B_c^*$ within the framework of non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization. The non-singlet and singlet DGLAP…
Based on photon structure function formalism we have calculated $B_c(B_c^{*})$ meson production cross section in $\gamma\gamma$ collisions via partonic subprocess $c\gamma\to B_c(B_c^{*}) b$. It was shown that this approach gives the same…
We perform the energy spectra calculating for the $S$-wave $\bar{Q}Q\bar{q}q$ (where $Q=c,b$ and $q=u,d,s$) system within two constituent quark models. The bound states of $B^*\bar{B}^*$ with $I(J^{PC})=1(0^{++}),~1(1^{+-}),~0(2^{++})$ and…
We present an uncertainty-aware description of leading-power fragmentation for all-charm pentaquark states ($S$-wave $|cccc\bar{c}\rangle$) at hadron colliders. We construct a multimodal set of collinear fragmentation functions, PQ5Q1.1,…
The Strange Quark matter (SQM) hypothesis states that at extreme pressure and density conditions a new ground state of matter would arise, in which half of the \textit{down} quarks become strange quarks. If true, it would mean that at least…
At high-energies the gluon-gluon fusion is the dominant mechanism of c \bar c production. This process was calculated in the NLO collinear as well as in the kt-factorization approaches in the past. In this presentation we concentrate on…
In this note, we calculate the branching ratio of B_c\to J/\psi K in the framework of perturbative QCD approach based on k_T factorization. This decay can occur only via tree level diagrams in the Standard Model. We find that the branching…
Within the framework of the perturbative QCD approach, we calculate the time-like $B_cB_c(B_c^*)$ form factors $F(Q^2)$ and $A_2(Q^2)$. We include relativistic corrections and QCD corrections, either of which can give about $20\%$…
In this article, we introduce an explicit P-wave to construct three-quark currents to study the P-wave $\Omega_b$ states with the full QCD sum rules. The predicted masses have a hierarchy if the same parameters are chosen and favor…
We show that when the factorized cross section for heavy quarkonium production includes next-to-leading power (NLP) contributions associated with the production of the heavy quark pair at short distances, it naturally reproduces all high…
