Abstract

We obtain the first estimates of branching ratios for the weak decays of BcB_c meson decaying to two orbitally excited mesons namely, axial-vector meson (AA) and tensor meson (TT), in the final state. We calculate BcTB_c \to T transition form factors using the Isgur-Scora-Grinstein-Wise II framework and consequently predict branching ratios of BcAT B_c \to AT decays in Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa favored and suppressed modes.
