Abstract

Results of recent studies that indicate that allowance for the relative motion of quarks in mesons leads to an increase in the cross sections for the process e + e J/ψη c are confirmed. It is shown that the same effect also leads to an increase in the width of scalar and tensor mesons with respect to their decay to two vector mesons, so that the decays χ b0,2 → 2J/ψ can be used to observe these mesons at the Tevatron collider and LHC.
