Recent data on charmonium production in B-meson decays suggest that charmonium hybrid mesons with mass ~4 GeV may be produced in B-decay via c\bar{c} colour octet operators. Some of these states are likely to be narrow with clean signatures…
We calculate the decay rates of $B$ mesons into P-wave charmonium states using new factorization formulas that are valid to leading order in the relative velocity of the charmed quark and antiquark and to all orders in the running coupling…

Studies of charmonium properties and production mechanism started with the discovery of $J/\psi$ meson. Since more than 40 years the charmonium production mechanism is still not entirely understood. Following the era of investigations at…
The semileptonic decays, $B_{c}{\longrightarrow}{\chi_c}(h_c)+{\ell}+{{\nu}}_{\ell}$, and the two-body nonleptonic decays, $B_{c}{\longrightarrow}{\chi_c}(h_c)+h$, (here $\chi_c$ and $h_c$ denote $(c\bar c[^3P_J])$ and $(c\bar c[^1P_1])$…

The production of the heavy $(c\bar{c})$-quarkonium, $(c\bar{b})$-quarkonium and $(b\bar{b})$-quarkonium states ($(Q\bar{Q'})$-quarkonium for short), via the $W^+$ semi-inclusive decays, has been systematically studied within the framework…
The direct production rates of $D$-wave charmonia in the decays of $Z^0$ is evaluated. The color-octet production processes $Z^0\rightarrow ^3D_J(c\bar c) q\bar q$ are shown to have distinctively large branching ratios, the same order of…
