Abstract

We analyze the radiative leptonic BcB_c decay mode: BcνγB_c \to \ell \nu \gamma (=e,μ\ell=e, \mu) using a QCD-inspired constituent quark model. The prediction: B(Bcνγ)3×105{\cal B}(B_c \to \ell \nu \gamma)\simeq 3 \times 10^{-5} makes this channel experimentally promising in view of the large number of BcB_c mesons which are expected to be produced at the future hadron facilities.
