Abstract: (Springer)
The cross-section for the production ofbbˉccˉb\bar bc\bar c quarks ine+e− annihilation, that proves to be at a level ofσ(e+ebbˉccˉ)/σ(e+ebbˉ)102\sigma (e^ +e^ -\to b\bar bc\bar c)/\sigma (e^ +e^ -\to b\bar b) \sim 10^{ - 2} fors=MZ\sqrt s= M_Z is calculated within the frames of the QCD perturbation theory. The cross sections for the associated production of 1S-and 2S-wave states ofBc-meson in the reactione+eBcbcˉe^ +e^ -\to B_c b\bar c were calculated in the nonrelativistic model of a heavy quarkonium. The number ofΛbc-hyperons to be expected at LEP is estimated on the basis of the assumption on quark-hadron duality.
