Strong Couplings of Three Mesons with Charm(ing) Involvement

We determine the strong couplings of three mesons that involve, at least, one ${\eta }_c$ or $J\mathrm{/}\psi$ meson, within the framework of a constituent-quark model by means of relativistic dispersion formulations. For strong couplings of $J\mathrm{/}\psi$ mesons to two charmed mesons, our approach leads to predictions roughly twice as large as those arising from QCD sum rules.
