Abstract

The ratio of KS KS (KL KL) and KS KL production rates is calculated by considering K0 - K0bar oscillation in J/ψ K0K0bar decay. The theoretical uncertainty due to strong interaction in J/ψ decay is completely canceled in the ratio, therefore, the absolute branching fractions of the violating processes of J/ψ KS KS and KL KL can be cleanly and model-independently determined in case that J/ψ KS KL decay is precisely measured. In the future τ-Charm factory, the expected violating process of J/ψ KS KS should be reached. It is important to measure J/ψ to KS KS and KS KL decays simultaneously, so that many systematic errors will be canceled. More precise measurements are suggested to examine the predicted isospin relation in J/ψ KKbar decays. All results can be extended to decays of other vector quarkonia, ϕ, ψ(2S) and Υ(1S) and so on.
