Abstract

Quark–gluon decays of heavy paraquarkonia [Formula: see text] are investigated with account of the masses of final quarks. The decay widths and the energy distributions of the final quarks and gluons are calculated in dependence on the relative quark masses. The strong collinear enhancement of the gluon energy distribution at the end of the spectrum is shown to take place in all such decays of ηc and ηb mesons except the decay [Formula: see text]. The total decay width is shown to have an essential dependence on the final quark masses. The corresponding branching ratios of ηc and ηb mesons are numerically estimated with a good agreement of [Formula: see text] with experimental data on ηc decays.
