NONLEPTONIC B-DECAYS INTO K-RESONANCES

We estimate the non-leptonic B decays B --> (psi, psi', chi1c) + K(i). where K(i) are various K-meson resonances. We use the model of Isgur, Wise, Scora and Grinstein in the context of heavy quark effective the ory, to calculate the hadronic matrix elements. Our estimates show tha t a substantial fraction of B --> X(s)psi results in higher resonances of K-meson and besides B --> K(K)psi, a considerable fraction of B - -> X(s)(ccBAR) goes to B --> (K, K) + (psi', chi1c).
