The strong vertices of bottom mesons B, B* and bottomonia , ηb
Abstract
In this article, the strong coupling constants of vertices BB, BB*, B*B*, BB*ηb and B*B*ηb are analyzed in the framework of QCD sum rules. In this work, all possible off-shell cases and the contributions of vacuum condensate terms including qq, qgsσ Gq, gs2G2, f3G3 and qq gs2G2 are considered. The momentum dependent strong coupling constants are first calculated and then are fitted into analytical functions g(Q2) which are used to extrapolate into time-like regions to obtain the final values of strong coupling constants. The final results are gBB=40.67+7.55-4.20, gBB*=11.58+2.19-1.09 GeV-1, gB*B*=57.02+5.32-5.31, gBB*ηb=23.39+4.74-2.30 and gB*B*ηb=12.49+2.12-1.35 GeV-1. These strong coupling constants are important input parameters which reflect the dynamic properties of the interactions among the mesons and quarkonia.
