Combined B->X_sψand B-> X_sη_c decays as a test of factorization

preprint1997arXivOpen access

Abstract

We calculate the inclusive decays B→XsψB\to X_sψ and B→XsηcB\to X_sη_c using factorization assumption. To investigate the bound state effect of the decaying B meson in these inclusive decays we take into account the motion of the bb quark using a Gaussian momentum distribution model. The resulting correction to free quark decay approximation is around 6% at most. Utilizing a potential model evaluation of the ratio of the decay constants fηc2/fψ2f^2_{η_c}/f^2_ψ, it is shown that the ratio R=Γ(B→Xsηc)/Γ(B→Xsψ)R=Γ(B\to X_sη_c )/Γ(B\to X_sψ) can be used as a possible test of factorization assumption.
