dc.descriptionWe calculate the decay rate of bottomonium to two-charm quark jets $Υ\to c \bar c$ at the tree level and one-loop level including color-singlet and color-octet $b \bar b$ annihilations. We find that the short distance coefficient of the color-octet piece is much larger than the color-singlet piece, and that the QCD correction will change the endpoint behavior of the charm quark jet. The color-singlet piece is strongly affected by the one-loop QCD correction. In contrast, the QCD correction to the color-octet piece is weak. Once the experiment can measure the branching ratio and energy distribution of the two-charm quark jets in the $Υ$ decay, the result can be used to test the color octet mechanism or give a strong constraint on the color-octet matrix elements.
