In 1993 @3#, it was realized that fragmentation can play an important role in quarkonium production at the large transverse momentum ( p T ) region at the Tevatron. Parton fragmentation into quarkonium is formally a higher order process but neverthe- less it can be enhanced at the sufficiently large transverse momentum region compared with the usual gluon fusion process @3#. A simple explanation of the enhancement is that the fragmenting partons are produced at high energies but with small invariant masses which can lead to the enhance- ment factor of powers of ( p T / m c ) 2 compared with the gluon fusion mechanism.

This double series expansion leads us natu- rally to include the higher Fock states of the quarkonium, some of which have the heavy quark pair in the color-octet state.

At the large transverse momentum region, the production of heavy-heavy bound states such as charmonium,bottomonium, andbc mesons in high energye1e2 and hadronic collisions is dominated by parton fragmen-tation. We calculate the heavy quark fragmentation functions into theD-wave quarkonium andbc mesons toleading order in the strong coupling constant and in the nonrelativistic expansion. In thebc meson case, oneset of itsD-wave states is expected to lie below the open flavor threshold. The total fragmentation probabilityfor a b antiquark to split into theD-wavebc mesons is about 231025, which implies that only 2% of the totalpseudoscalar ground stateBc comes from the cascades of these orbitally excited states.

I. INTRODUCTION

The production of heavy-quark–antiquark bound stasuch as charmonium, bottomonium, and the yet undiscovecharmedb-flavored mesons at high energye1e2 and had-ronic machines can provide very interesting tests of perbative QCD. In the charmonium case, our traditional wisdo@1# has taken the following scenario: Most of theJ/c comespredominately from either the radiative decay of tP-wavexcJ states produced by the lowest order gluon fusimechanism or the weak decays ofB mesons, whereas thc8 should be produced almost entirely fromB-meson de-cays. Similarly, most of theY should be produced from theradiative xbJ decay. Only until recently could this naivthinking be confronted by the wealth of high energy expemental data collected at the Fermilab Tevatron. During1992–1993 run, the Collider Detector at Fermilab~CDF! re-corded surprisingly large production rates of the promJ/c, c8, andxcJ which are orders of magnitude above ththeoretical lowest order predictions@2#. In 1993 @3#, it wasrealized that fragmentation can play an important rolequarkonium production at the large transverse momen(pT) region at the Tevatron. Parton fragmentation inquarkonium is formally a higher order process but nevertless it can be enhanced at the sufficiently large transvemomentum region compared with the usual gluon fusprocess@3#. A simple explanation of the enhancement is ththe fragmenting partons are produced at high energieswith small invariant masses which can lead to the enhanment factor of powers of (pT /mc)

This new approach, which is based on nonrelativistic QCD~NRQCD!, allows us to go beyond the conventional color-singlet model@5# by considering a double series expansion ofthe decay or production rates in terms of the strong couplinconstant and the relative velocity of the heavy quarks insidthe bound state. This double series expansion leads us narally to include the higher Fock states of the quarkoniumsome of which have the heavy quark pair in the color-octestate. We will discuss more about this factorization formal-ism in the next section.

Most of the fragmentation functions for quarkonium thatare relevant to phenomenology have now been calculateGluon fragmentation functions were calculated in Ref.@3#for theS wave, Refs.@6,7# for theP wave, and Ref.@8# forthe 1D2 state; heavy quark fragmentation functions were calculated in Refs.@9,10# for theS wave and Refs.@11–13# forthe P wave. Phenomenological applications of these fragmentation functions have been performed by a number ogroups@14,15#. The current scenario of charmonium produc-tion at high transverse momentum is as follows. Among alfragmentation contributions that are relevant toJ/c produc-tion, the dominant ones come from~i! gluon fragmentationinto a color-octet 3S1 cc state followed by a doubleE1transition intoJ/c and~ii ! gluon fragmentation intoxcJ fol-lowed by the radiative decayxcJ→J/c1g. The formermechanism is the most dominant one forc8 production be-cause of the absence ofxcJ(2P) states below theDD thresh-old. The current experimental status with this new fragmentation insight has now been reviewed by many people ovarious occasions. We refer the readers to Refs.@14–17# formore details.

The charmed-flavoredbc mesons are expected to be ob-served soon at the Tevatron and preliminary limits on theproduction rate already exist@18#. Parton fragmentation hasbeen applied phenomenologically to the production ofbcmesons as well at the Tevatron@19,20#. The heavy quarkfragmentation functions forb*→(bc) were calculated inRef. @21# for theSwave and in Refs.@11,12# for theP wave.

The validity of the parton fragmentation has been questioin some recent exactO(as

4) calculations @22#. However,these calculations obtained different results and led to cflicting conclusions among themselves. It was only until trecent appearance of the results of Ref.@23# that this contro-versy can be settled and the validity of the fragmentatapproximation can be established in the production of (bc)mesons at the Tevatron. One can, therefore, use the fragmtation approximation with confidence in calculating the prduction cross sections and transverse momentum spectthe (bc) mesons, including the leading logarithmic corretions, induced gluon fragmentation contribution@20#, andcontributions from all orbitally excited states.

The purpose of this paper is to extend the previous calations of heavy quark fragmentation functions to tD-wave case. TheD-wave orbitally excited states are of interest phenomenologically. In the (bc) case, one set of theD-wave states is predicted by potential models to lie beltheBD threshold. These states, once produced, will cascinto the pseudoscalar ground stateBc via pion and/or photonemissions and thereby contribute to the inclusive productrate of Bc . The excitedD-wave charmonium resonancehave also been suggested@24# to resolve thec8 surplus prob-lem observed at the CDF. In Sec. II, we briefly review tfactorization model of Bodwin, Braaten, and Lepage@4# thatcan consistently factor out the long-distance physics ashort-distance perturbative factors for the inclusive prodtion and decay rates of heavy quarkonium. In Sec. III,present the calculation of theD-wave fragmentation func-tions for both the unequal and equal mass cases withinspirit of the factorization model. We discuss our resultsSec. IV and conclude in Sec. V.

II. FACTORIZATION MODEL

According to the factorization formalism@4#, the frag-mentation function for a heavy quarkQ to split into aquarkonium stateX with longitudinal momentum fractionzcan be written as

DQ→X~z,m!5(n

dn~z,m!^O nX&, ~1!

where O n are local four-fermion operators defined inNRQCD. The short-distance coefficientsdn(z,m) are inde-pendent of the quarkonium stateX. For a fragmentation scalem of order of the heavy quark massmQ , the coefficientsdn(z,m) can be calculated using perturbation theory in astrong coupling constantas(2mQ). The relative size of thematrix elementsO n

X& for a given stateX can be estimated byhow they scale withmQ and with the typical relative velocityv of the heavy quarks inside the quarkonium. Thus, the fac-torization formula, Eq.~1!, is a double expansion inas andv. To determine the relative importance of the various termsin this formula, one should take into account both the scalingin v of the matrix elementsO n

X& and the order ofas in thecoefficientsdn(z,m). The leading term inv of this formulacorresponds to the popular color-singlet model@5#. However,keeping only the leading term in this double expansion cansometimes lead to incomplete or even inconsistent resultsdue to the presence of infrared divergences@4,25#.

One important feature in the factorization model is thatthe quarkonium stateX is no longer considered as solely aQQ pair but rather a superposition of Fock states. For ex-ample, the spin-triplet3DJ quarkonium states, denoted bydJQ , have the following Fock state expansion:

where the notation1 and8 refers, respectively, to the color-singlet and color-octet states of theQQ pair. In the aboveFock-state expansion there are also otherO(v2) states, e.g.,uQQ(3DJ ,8 or 1)gg&, but their production will be furthersuppressed by powers ofv. Heavy quark fragmentation intoD-wave quarkoniumdJ

Q can be deduced from the leadingFeynman diagrams ofQ*→(QQ)Q as shown in Figs. 1 and2. In Fig. 1, theQQ pair can be either in the color-single3DJ state, in the color-octet3PJ8, or in the color-octet orcolor-singlet 3S1 states, whereas in Fig. 2 it can only be ithe color-octet3S1 state. The short-distance factors deduce

from these diagrams are all of orderas2 . Furthermore, all

these diagrams are also of the same order inv. According tothe NRQCD @4#, the relevant local four-fermion operatorsdescribing these three Fock states areO 1(

3DJ), O 8(3PJ8),

andO 8(3S1) which have relative scalings likev4, v2, and

v0, respectively. However, theQQ pair in the color-octetP-wave andS-wave states can evolve nonperturbatively intothe physicalD-wave quarkonium statedJ

Q by emitting oneand two soft gluon~s!, respectively. Emitting a soft gluoncosts a factor ofv at the amplitude level in NRQCD andhence a factor ofv2 in the probability. Thus, with a nonrel-

Potential models can be used to determine the value ofwave function so that the NRQCD matrix elements for tcolor-singlet contributions are fixed. Unfortunately, potentmodels cannot determine the color-octet matrix elemesince dynamical gluons are involved. However, from our eperience of theP-wave quarkonium case@11#, we do notexpect the color-octet component to play a major role in theavy quark fragmentation. We note that this is in sharp ctrast with the gluon fragmentation in which a gluon can frament into the color-octet 3S1 state via the processg*→QQ. This process is of orderas and is at least onepower ofas less than the leading color-singlet term in thgluon fragmentation. We also note that the color-singlet cotribution of heavy quark fragmentation from Fig. 1 is freeinfrared divergences. On the other hand, infrared divergenwill show up in the gluon fragmentation function into thspin-tripletD-wave quarkonium. It is necessary to includthe color-octet contributions in order to achieve finite asensible perturbative answers for the gluon fragmentatfunctions into spin-tripletD-wave states. In what follows wewill restrict ourselves to the color-singlet contribution in thheavy quark fragmentation intoD-wave quarkonium. If thecolor-octet matrix elements can be determined in the futuit is straightforward to include their contributions since thecorresponding short-distance coefficients can be extraceasily from the previousS-wave andP-wave calculations bymodifying the color factors.

The factorization model for the quarkonium system cbe extended to the unequal mass case such as the (bc) me-son system. In what follows, we will denote the spin-sing

III. HEAVY QUARK FRAGMENTATION FUNCTIONSINTO D-WAVE HEAVY-HEAVY MESONS

The general covariant formalism for calculating the production and decay rates ofS-wave and P-wave heavyquarkonium in the nonrelativistic expansion was developesome time ago@26#. It is straightforward to extend it to thecase of unequal mass and higher orbital excitation. We shapresent a covariant formalism for the production of aD-wave meson (Qq) by some unspecified short-distanceprocesses. LetmQ andmq be the masses of the two quarkswith mQ.mq , and introduce the mass parametersr5mq /(mQ1mq) and r5mQ /(mQ1mq)512r . In theleading nonrelativistic approximation, the massM of the me-son is simplymQ1mq . The amplitude for producing thebound state (Qq) in a state with momentumP, total angularmomentumJ, total orbital angular momentumL, and totalspinS is given by

For a given principal quantum numbern the 1D2 and3D2 states constructed in theLS coupling scheme are mixed in

Therefore, we also need to calculate the fragmentation functionDmix(z). We note that in the case of charmonium it is thecharge-conjugation quantum numberC that prevents the mixing ofcc(1D2) and cc(3D2) states, becausecc(1D2) hasC511 while cc(3D2) hasC521. In the unequal mass case the meson does not have this quantum numberC to prevent themixing. The mixing fragmentation function is obtained by calculating the interference teA(1D2)A* (

3D2)1A* (1D2)A(3D2) and sum over the colors and helicities of the particles in the final state as before.

IV. DISCUSSION

We have seen that the covariant formalism used to callate theD-wave fragmentation functions is quite cumbesome and tedious. The complicated results are thereneeded to be cross-checked by other means. To be surehave recalculated theD-wave fragmentation functions forthe equal mass case from scratch and we did end up withsame results as what we have in the above forr51/2. Twoadditional nontrivial checks are performed by using tBraaten-Levin spin-counting rule@28# and the heavy quarkspin-counting rule which we will discuss in turns.

A. Braaten-Levin spin-counting rule

The fragmentation functionDi→H(z) for a partoni split-ting into a hadronH is related to the distribution functionf i /H(x) of finding the partoni inside the hadronH by theanalytic continuation@29,30#

f i /H~x!5xDi→HS 1xD . ~53!

The results of perturbative fragmentation functions allowto study the perturbative tail of the distribution functionsthe heavy quark inside the heavy mesons as well. Fromexplicit calculations, we see thatf i /H(x) has a pole located ax5 r . The pole is cut off by nonperturbative effects relatedthe formation of bound states of the (Qq) pair. This pole isof order 6, 8, and 10 forS-, P-, andD-wave states, respectively. In the general case ofL waves we expect this pole tobe of order 612L. Therefore, we can expandf (x) as aLaurent series:

f ~x!5an~r !

~x2 r !n1

an21~r !

~x2 r !n211 less singular terms,

~54!

with n5612L for the generalL waves.The Braaten-Levin rule states that the leadin

r -dependent coefficientsan(r ) satisfy the simple spin count-ing. Specifically, we have

3S1!51:3 for S waves, ~55!

3D3!

55:3:5:7 forD waves, ~57!

and so on.The applicability of these counting rules has been dem

strated for theS- and P-wave cases in Ref.@11#. For theD-wave case we can expand the distribution functiowhich are obtained from theD-wave fragmentation functionsby Eq. ~53!, aroundx5 r , and obtain the first two terms inthe Laurent series:

Therefore, the leadingcoefficients a10’s indeed satisfy the spin-counting ratio5:3:5:7.Actually, we found that not only the first term butalso the second term in the Laurent series off (x) obeys theBraaten-Levin spin-counting rules, while the third term doesnot. We conjecture that the Braaten-Levin spin-counting rulecan be applied to the first two coefficients in the expansion~54! for all L-wave (L 5 0, 1, 2, . . . )cases.

B. Heavy-light limit

Hadrons containing a single heavy quark exhibit heavyquark symmetry in the limitmQ /LQCD→`. In the limit ofmQ /LQCD→`, both the heavy quark spinSWQ and the totalspin JW of a heavy hadron containing a single heavy quarkQ become good quantum numbers. This implies that in thspectroscopy of the hadron containing a single heavy quarQ, the angular momentum of the light degrees of freedomJW l5JW2SWQ is also a good quantum number. We refer collec-tively to all the degrees of freedom in the heavy-light hadronother than the heavy quark as the light degrees of freedomFor heavy-light (Qq) mesons,JW l5SW q1LW whereSW q is thespin of the light quarkq andLW is the orbital angular momen-tum. Thus, hadronic states can be labeled simultaneously bthe eigenvaluesj and j l of the total spinJW and the angularmomentum of the light degrees of freedomJW l , respectively.In general@31#, the spectrum of hadrons containing a singleheavy quark has, for eachj l , a degenerate doublet with totalspins j15 j l11/2 and j25 j l21/2. ~For the case ofj l50,the total spin must be 1/2.) ForD-wave heavy-light mesons,j l can either be 3/2 or 5/2. Thus (j2 , j1)5(1,2) and~2,3!for j l 5 3/2 and 5/2, respectively. As a result, we expect tohave two distinct doublets (3D1,2

18) and (21,3D3) in thelimit of mQ /mq→`, i.e., r→0. In this limit, the mixingcoefficients in Eq.~37! can be determined by the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients in the tensor product of a spin-1/2 statand a spin-2 state with the result

V. CONCLUSIONS

The detection of theD-wave orbitally excited states ofheavy-heavy mesons is much more difficult than theground states. So far, none ofD-wave quarkonium has beenidentified. The basic reasons are~i! the production rates are

ir

small, ~ii ! small branching ratios in subsequent decays, an~iii ! the very small efficiencies in subsequent levels of identification. From the potential model calculations,D-wavecharmonium is likely to be above theDD threshold andhence it will decay predominantly into a pair ofD mesons.In principle,D-wave quarkonium can be identified partiallyby its pure leptonic decay~e.g., 3D1→m1m2), or by itssubsequent decays into the lower-lying states. It is becausethe subsequent levels of decays that substantially the braning ratios and efficiencies are reduced in identifying thesD-wave bound states. However, both the branching ratiand efficiencies are uncertain at this stage. In the followinwe shall estimate the production rates ofD-wave charmo-nium, bottomonium, and (bc) mesons based upon the frag-mentation functions obtained in Secs. III and IV.

The values ofuRD9 (0)u2 for the (cc), (bb), and (bc) sys-

tems were summarized nicely in Ref.@33# using differentpotential models. We choose the QCD-motivated potential

Buchmuller and Tye@34#, and the corresponding values ouRD9 (0)u

2 for the (cc), (bb), and (bc) systems are 0.015,0.637, and 0.055 GeV7, respectively. These values are fothe first set of theD-wave states. We note that the values ouRD9 (0)u

2 obtained using the Buchmu¨ller-Tye potential arethe smallest ones of the four potential models studied in R@33#.

In the following analysis, we will adopt the valuesmc51.5 GeV andmb54.9 GeV that were used in the fit ofthe Buchmu¨ller-Tye potential to the bound state spectra@33#.Using as(2mc)'0.253, uRD9 (0)u

250.055 GeV7, r5mc /(mb1mc)50.234, and ignoring the possibly small mixingeffects for the (bc) system, we show theD-wave fragmen-tation functions for (bc) mesons in Fig. 4. The fragmentationprobabilities for ab antiquark intoD-wave (bc) mesons canbe obtained from Eqs.~40!–~43!:

Therefore, the total probability is about 2.331025. We cancompare this value with the corresponding probabilitiesthe S-wave andP-wave states. Using the sameas and thevalues of uRS(0)u2 and uRP8 (0)u

2 calculated with the sameBuchmuller-Tye potential, the total fragmentation probabilities of the 1S and 1P (bc) states are about 131023 and1.731024, respectively @11#. These total fragmentationprobabilities show a similar suppression factor of orderv2 in

Next, for D-wave charmonium we useas(2mc)'0.253and uRD9 (0)u

250.015 GeV7. The D-wave fragmentationfunctions for charmonium are shown in Fig. 5, and the frag-mentation probabilities are given by

For bottomonium, we use as(2mb)'0.174 anduRD

The total probability forD-wave bottomonium is very small,;5.431028. This is to be compared with the probabilitieof P(b→Y)'231025 @9# andP(b→hb ,xb)'2.531026.We observe that the relative probabilities for theS-wave toP-wave quarkonium and for theP-wave toD-wave quarko-nium are roughly suppressed by a similar factor ofv2 as inthe bc case.

At the Tevatron theb-quark production cross section is oorder 10mb with pT*6 GeV, which implies about 109 bquarks with an accumulated luminosity of 100 pb21. Usingthe fragmentation probabilities calculated above, we expabout 104 D-wave (bc) mesons, while there are only abou50D-wave bottomonium. At largepT , charm quark produc-tion is very similar to bottom quark production. Thereforethe c-quark production cross section is also of order 10mband there should be about 104 D-wave charmonium for thesame luminosity. Although the production rates ofD-wave(bc) mesons and charmonium are rather substantial,small branching ratios and efficiencies of identificationsubsequent levels of decays render their detections extremdifficult. For example, the combined branching ratiB„1D2(cc)→1P1g,

1P1→J/cp0,J/c→m1m2… has been

estimated to be about 1024 @8#. Even after the installation ofthe Main Injector when the yearly luminosity can be boosteto 1–3 fb21, the chance of detecting theD-wave (bc) me-sons or charmonium is still quite slim. The future CERN

Aftertaking into account the branching ratios and efficienciesthere should be a handful number of theseD-wave states thatcan be identified. Nevertheless, detection ofD-wave botto-monium does not seem to be feasible even at the LHC. Thproduction ofbb andcc pairs at the CERNe1e2 collidersLEP, LEP II, and other higher energye1e2 or m1m2 col-liders is much smaller than at the hadronic colliders. Therefore, it is much more difficult to identifyD-wave quarko-nium or (bc) mesons at thee1e2 or m1m2 facilities.

In conclusion, we have computed the heavy quark fragmentation functions intoD-wave heavy-heavy mesons con-taining two heavy quarks to leading order in strong couplingconstant and to leading order in the nonrelativistic expansiowithin the framework of factorization model of Bodwin,Braaten, and Lepage. The color-singlet contributions can bexpressed in terms of the NRQCD matrix elements which arrelated to the second derivative of the nonrelativistic radiaD-wave wave function. The color-octet contributions are expected to be quite small in the heavy quark fragmentatioand therefore we have ignored them in the present analysThe fragmentation functions obtained in this work should buseful in the production of theD-wave charmonium, botto-monium, and (bc) mesons at the future Large Hadronic Col-lider.
