The LHC$_b$ collaboration has systematically measured the rates of $B_c\to J/\psi K$, $B_c\to J/\psi D_s$, $B_c\to J/\psi D_s^*$ and $B_c\to \psi(2S) \pi$. The new data enable us to study relevant theoretical models and further determine the model parameters. In this work, We calculate the form factors for the transitions $B_c\to J/\psi$ and $B_c\to \psi(2S)$ numerically, then determine the partial widths of the semi-leptonic and non-leptonic decays. The theoretical predictions on the ratios of $\Gamma(B_c\to J/\psi K)/\Gamma(B_c\to J/\psi \pi)$, $\Gamma(B_c\to J/\psi D_s)/\Gamma(B_c\to J/\psi \pi)$ and $\Gamma(B_c\to J/\psi D_s^*)/\Gamma(B_c\to J/\psi \pi)$ are consistent with data within only 1$\sigma$. Especially, for calculating $\Gamma(B_c\to \psi(2S)X)$ the modified harmonic oscillator wave function (HOWF) which we developed in early works is employed and the results indicate that the modified harmonic oscillator wave function works better than the traditional HOWF.

  1. $B_c$ meson decays into $S$-wave charmonium plus light meson pairs in the perturbative QCD approach

    hep-ph 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    pQCD calculations predict ~90% longitudinal polarization in B_c to J/psi or psi(2S) plus rho or K* mediated light meson pairs, with one branching ratio ratio matching LHCb at 2.67 vs 2.80.
