The transition form factors for semi-leptonic weak decays of J/ψ in QCD sum rules

Within the standard model, we investigate the semi-leptonic weak decays of J/ψ. The various form factors of J/ψ making the transition to a single charmed meson (D^(*) _(d,s)) are studied in the framework of QCD sum rules. These form factors fully determine the rates of the weak semi-leptonic decays of J/ψ and provide valuable information on non-perturbative QCD effects. Our results indicate that the decay rate of the semi-leptonic weak decay mode J/ψ→D^(*)- _s+e⁺+ν_e is at the order of 10^-10. PACS 13.20.Gd; 13.25.Gv; 11.55.Hx
