The Landau-Yang theorem, forbidding transition amplitudes between a massive spin-1 particle and two photons, is widely assumed to apply to other massless spin-1 particles. We show that this is not true in Standard-Model QCD, so that for instance antisymmetric colour-octet spin-1 quarkonia can be formed by two on-shell gluons in second-order perturbative QCD.

  1. Two-loop form factors for $P$-wave quarkonium production and decay

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Analytic two-loop form factors for chi_{Q,J} production and decay are presented, including a new NRQCD singularity that couples P-wave states to the 3S1[8] configuration.
