The form factors parameterizing the B_c semileptonic matrix elements can be related to a few invariant functions if the decoupling of the spin of the heavy quarks in B_c and in the mesons produced in the semileptonic decays is exploited. We compute the form factors as overlap integral of the meson wave-functions obtained using a QCD relativistic potential model, and give predictions for semileptonic and non-leptonic B_c decay modes. We also discuss possible experimental tests of the heavy quark spin symmetry in B_c decays.

  1. $|V_{ub}|$ determination and testing of lepton flavour universality in semileptonic $B_c \rightarrow D^{(\ast)}$ decays

    hep-ph 2019-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A three-point QCD sum-rule calculation of B_c to D^(*) form factors supports a new |Vub| extraction channel and predicts lepton universality ratios R_c(D^0) = 0.64 +/- 0.05 and R_c(D*) = 0.55 +/- 0.05.

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

    hep-ph 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    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.
