The dissociation temperatures of heavy quarkonia in thermal medium are also discussed for CG, FG and HTL cases. It is shown that the thermal widths, derived from the HTL approximation and used in many research studies, cause some errors in the practical calculations at the temperature range accessible in the present experiment, and the problem of gauge dependence cannot be avoided when the complete self energy is used in the derivation of potential.展开更多

Employing three distinct methods,we calculate the next-to-leading-order(NLO) relativistic correction to g →ηc fragmentation function in the NRQCD factorization framework, as well as verifying the existing NLO result for the c →ηc fragmentation function. We also study the evolution behavior of these fragmentation functions with the aid of the DGLAP equation.展开更多

For the direct process, we calculate the decay width up to QCD NLO. We find that the decay width for process H → J/ψ(γ ) +γ direct production at the LO is significantly reduced by the NLO QCD corrections. For the indirect process, we calculate the H→γ*γ, with virtual 7 substantially decaying to J/ψ(γ), including all the SM Feynman diagrams. The decay width of indirect production is much larger than the direct decay width. Since it is very clean in experiment, the H →J/ψ( γ) +γ decay could be observable at a 14 TeV LHC and it also offers a new way to probe the Yukawa coupling and New Physics at the LHC.展开更多

Within the framework of the non-relativistic QCD(NRQCD) factorization method we calculate the contri-butions coming from four relevant processes including one color-singlet process and three color-octet ones,which are b(3PJ,1) → c(3S1,8) + c +,b(3S1,8) → c(3S1,1) + g + g,b(3S1,8) → c(3S1,1) + c + and b(3S1,8) → c(3S1,8) +g. Our calculation shows that the color-octet processes,especially the gluon fragmen-tation one,contribute the most in the decays of χb0 and χb1. However,the J/ψ production in the χb2 decay is dominated by the color-singlet process. Furthermore,the gluon fragmentation process gives a δ function in the energy fraction distribution of J/ψ,which can be considered to be another characteristic for its identification. From our estimation the branching ratio for these processes is about 10-4-10-5,which indicates that J/ψ inclusive production is detectable at B-factories. Studying these processes would help us to gain a deeper understanding of the color-octet mechanism.展开更多
