Abstract

We calculate the cross section of the exclusive process e ++e J/ψ+η c at the leading order approximation within the QCD light-cone sum rules approach. It is found that the form factor F VP(V=J/ψ,P=η c ) depends mainly on the behavior of the twist-2 distribution amplitude of the η c meson at the scale of this process. Thus in order to obtain a reliable estimation of the cross section, it is important to have a realistic distribution amplitude of the η c meson and to deal with the evolution of the distribution amplitude to the effective energy scale of the process. Our results show that one can obtain a compatible prediction with the Belle and BaBar experimental data.
