We discuss two-photon and hadronic production of $B_c$ mesons in nonrelativistic bound state approximation and to lowest order in the coupling constants $\alpha$ and $\alpha_s$. It is shown that in photon-photon collisions, heavy quark…

The recombination production of $B_c$ mesons in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC energy is facilitated by the abundant and highly thermalized charm ($c$) quarks transported in the deconfined medium created. We study the production of $B_c$…

The production of the B_c and B_c^* mesons was studied in the framework of the factorization formalism and perturbative QCD. Predicted results implied that an observable number of B_c and B_c^* events can be produced at LEP I and at…
As an important sequential work of the S-wave $B_c^{(*)}$ ($^1S_0(^3S_1)$) meson production at the large hadron electron collider (LHeC), we investigate the production of the P-wave excited $B_c^{**}$ states ($^1P_1$ and $^3P_J$ with…
At the large transverse momentum region, the production of heavy-heavy bound-states such as charmonium, bottomonium, and $\bar bc$ mesons in high energy $e^+e^-$ and hadronic collisions is dominated by parton fragmentation. We calculate the…

The properties of the $B_c$-meson family ($c\bar b$) are still not well determined experimentally because the specific mechanisms of formation and decay remain poorly understood. Unlike heavy quarkonia, i.e. the hidden heavy quark-antiquark…
The $B_c$--meson production cross section was calculated in the perturbative QCD. Various distributions of the charged leptons from the $B_c \to l \nu J/\psi(\to l^+ l^-)$ decay were obtained. The $B_c$--meson mass measurement from such…
