The $S$-wave resonance contributions to the three-body decays $B^0_{(s)}\to η_c f_0(X)\to η_cπ^+π^-$ in perturbative QCD approach

In this paper, we study the three-body decays $B^0/B^0_s \to η_c f_0(X)\to η_c π^+π^-$ by employing the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization approach. We evaluate the $S$-wave resonance contributions by using the two-pion distribution amplitude $Φ_{ππ}^{\rm S}$. The Breit-Wigner formula for the $f_0(500)$, $f_0(1500)$, and $f_0(1790)$ resonances and the Flatté model for the $f_0(980)$ resonance are adopted to parameterize the time-like scalar form factors $F_{s}(ω^2)$. We also use the D.~V.~Bugg model to parameterize the $f_0(500)$ and compare the relevant theoretical predictions from different models. We found the following results: (a) the PQCD predictions for the branching ratios are ${\cal B}(B^0\to η_c f_0(500)[π^+π^-])= \left ( 1.53 ^{+0.76}_{-0.35} \right ) \times 10^{-6}$ for Breit-Wigner model and ${\cal B}(B^0\to η_c f_0(500)[π^+π^-])= \left ( 2.31 ^{+0.96}_{-0.48} \right ) \times 10^{-6}$ for D.~V.~Bugg model; (b) ${\cal B}(B_s\to η_c f_0(X)[π^+π^-] ) =\left ( 5.02^{+1.49}_{-1.08} \right )\times 10^{-5}$ when the contributions from $f_0(X)=(f_0(980),f_0(1500),f_0(1790))$ are all taken into account; and (c) The considered decays could be measured at the ongoing LHCb experiment, consequently, the formalism of two-hadron distribution amplitudes could also be tested by such experiments.
