Production of the Y(4260) state in B meson decay

We calculate the branching ratio for the production of the meson Y(4260) in the decay B−→Y(4260)K−. We use QCD sum rules approach and we consider the Y(4260) to be a mixture between charmonium and exotic tetraquark, [c¯q¯][qc], states with JPC=1−−. Using the value of the mixing angle determined prev...
