Based on photon structure function formalism we have calculated $B_c(B_c^{*})$ meson production cross section in $\gamma\gamma$ collisions via partonic subprocess $c\gamma\to B_c(B_c^{*}) b$. It was shown that this approach gives the same…
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…
