Abstract

A large number of BcB_c meson events have been recorded at the LHCb detector, especially some two-body hadronic decay modes. We analyzed the weak decays of the BcB_c meson into two hadron states under the flavor SU(3) symmetry. The relations among amplitudes of BcB_c into D+P(V) D+P(V), B+P(V)B+P(V), P(V)+P(V)P(V)+P(V), T8+Tˉ8T_8+\bar T_8 and T10+Tˉ10T_{10}+\bar T_{10} were investigated systematically, where PP ( VV) denotes a light pseudoscalar (vector) meson and T8,10T_{8,10} denotes a light baryon. The ηη\eta-\eta' mixing and ωϕ\omega-\phi mixing effects are also considered for the phenomenological discussions. We obtained the relations among decay widths of different BcB_c decay channels. These results are helpful to study the two-body decay properties of the BcB_c meson and test the flavor SU(3) symmetry.
