In the present paper, we study the photoproduction of various $S$-wave $B_c$ states, i.e. $B_c(1{}^1S_0)$, $B_c^*(1{}^1S_0)$, $B_c(2{}^1S_0)$ and $B^*_c(2{}^3S_1)$, at future $e^+e^-$ colliders within the framework of non-relativistic QCD.…
We study the pair production of scalar top quarks in e+e- collisions with the subsequent decay of the top squarks into b-quarks and charginos. We simulate this process using PYTHIA6.4 for beam energies 2E_beam = 350, 400, 500, 800, 1000…
