Abstract

In this note, we study the contributions from the S-wave resonances, f_{0}(980) and f_{0}(1500), to the B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \psi(3770)\pi^ {+}\pi^{-} decay by introducing the S-wave \pi\pi distribution amplitudes within the framework of the perturbative QCD approach. Both resonant and nonresonant contributions are contained in the scalar form factor in the S-wave distribution amplitude \Phi^S_{\pi\pi}. Since the vector charmonium meson \psi(3770) is a S-D wave mixed state, we calculated the branching ratios of S-wave and D-wave respectively, and the results indicate that f_{0}(980) is the main contribution of the considered decay, and the branching ratio of the \psi(2S) mode is in good agreement with the experimental data. We also take the S-D mixed effect into the B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \psi(3686)\pi^ {+}\pi^{-} decay. Our calculations show that the branching ratio of B^{0}_{s}\rightarrow \psi(3770)(\psi(3686))\pi^ {+}\pi^{-} can be at the order of 10^{-5}, which can be tested by the running LHC-b experiments.
