Analysis of the vertex $D^{\ast }{D}^{\ast }\rho$ with the light-cone QCD sum rules

Abstract

In this article, we analyze the vertex $D^{\ast }{D}^{\ast }\rho$ with the light-cone QCD sum rules. The strong coupling constant $g_{D^{\ast }{D}^{\ast }\rho }$ is an important parameter in evaluating the charmonium absorption cross sections in searching for the quark-gluon plasmas. Our numerical value for the $g_{D^{\ast }{D}^{\ast }\rho }$ is consistent with the prediction of the effective SU(4) symmetry and vector meson dominance theory.
