    We investigate the O(Ξ±sv2){\mathcal O}(\alpha_s v^2) correction to the e+eβˆ’β†’J/ψ+Ξ·ce^+e^-\to J/\psi+\eta_c process in the nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization approach. Within some reasonable choices of the relative order-v2v^2 NRQCD matrix elements, we find that including this new ingredient of correction only mildly enhances the existing NRQCD predictions. We have also deduced the asymptotic expressions for the O(Ξ±sv2){\mathcal O}(\alpha_s v^2) short-distance coefficients, and reconfirm the early speculation that at next-to-leading order in Ξ±s\alpha_s, the double logarithm of type ln⁑2(s/mc2)\ln^2 (s/m_c^2) appearing in various NRQCD short-distance coefficients is always associated with the helicity-suppressed channels.Comment: v3, 6 pages, 2 figures, 1 table; matching the published versio

    Some recent progress in understanding exclusive double charmonium production at BB factories

    We review some recent progress in understanding various exclusive double charmonium production processes at BB factories, within the nonrelativistic QCD factorization framework. First we investigate the impact of the joint perturbative and relativistic correction on the process that has attracted a great amount of attention in the past decade, e+eβˆ’β†’J/ψ+Ξ·ce^+e^-\to J/\psi+\eta_c. We then briefly discuss the phenomenological implication of the next-to-leading order perturbative correction to the processes e+eβˆ’β†’J/ψ+Ο‡c0,1,2(Ξ·c2)e^+e^-\to J/\psi+\chi_{c0,1,2} (\eta_{c2}). We further emphasize a novel theoretical challenge, which is recently discovered by applying the NRQCD factorization approach to the helicity-suppressed hard exclusive reactions involving heavy quarkonium.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures, 1 table.
