QCD corrections to double J/ production in e+e- annihilation at s=10.6 GeV

Abstract

Next-to-Leading-Order(NLO) QCD corrections to double J/psi production in e+e- annihilation at sqrts=10.6 GeV are calculated. We find that they greatly decrease the cross section, with a K factor (NLO/LO) ranging from -0.31 to 0.25 depending on the renormalization scale. Although the renormalization scale dependence indicates a large uncertainty, when combined with the NLO QCD corrections to J/psi + etac production, it can explain why the double J/psi$ production could not be found at B factories while the J/psi + etac production could, despite the fact that cross section of the former is larger than that of the latter at LO by a factor of 1.8.
