SU(3) Relations and the CP Asymmetry in B to K_S K_S K_S
read the original abstract
The CP asymmetry in the $B \to K_S K_S K_S$ decay is being measured by the two B factories. A large deviation of the CP asymmetry $S_{K_S K_S K_S}$ from $-S_{\psi K_S}$ and/or of $C_{K_S K_S K_S}$ from zero would imply new physics in $b \to s$ transitions. We try to put upper bounds on the Standard Model size of these deviations, using SU(3) flavor relations and experimental data on the branching ratios of various decay modes that proceed via $b \to d$ transitions. We point out several subtleties that distinguish the case of three body final states from two body ones. We present several simple relations that can become useful once all relevant modes are measured accurately enough.

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