Non-factorizable contributions to $\bar{B^0_d} \to D_s^{(*)} \bar{D_s^{(*)}}$

It is pointed out that decays of the type $B \to D \bar{D}$ have no factorizable contributions, unless at least one of the charmed mesons in the final state is a vector meson. The dominant contributions to the decay amplitudes arise from chiral loop contributions and tree level amplitudes generated by soft gluon emissions forming a gluon condensate. We predict that the branching ratios for the processes $\bar B^0 \to D_s^+ D_s^-$, $\bar B^0 \to D_s^{+*} D_s^- $ and $\bar B^0 \to D_s^+ D_s^{-*}$ are all of order $(3- 4) \times 10^{-4}$, while $\bar B^0 \to D_s^{+*} D_s^{-*}$ has a branching ratio 5 to 10 times bigger. We emphasize that the branching ratios are sensitive to $1/m_c$ corrections.
