We find that, within that framework, these decays are calculable since the heavy $c\\bar{c}$ pair in the final states is created by a hard gluon. The branching ratios are estimated to be around $10^{-7}\\sim 10^{-8}$, too small to be consistent with the data, suggesting that other mechanism(s) contribute to the observed excess of soft $J/\\Psi$ in ${B}^0 \\to J/\\Psi + X$ decays. The possibility of the production of a hybrid $s{\\bar d}g$ meson with mass about 2 GeV is briefly entertained.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2001-10-07T12:53:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.39.Jh", "12.38.Bx", "13.25.Hw" ], "keywords": [ "perturbative qcd", "production", "final states", "hard gluon", "branching ratios" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
