Nonleptonic charmless decays of $B_c\to TP,TV$ in the perturbative QCD approach

Abstract

Two-body charmless hadronic $B_c$ decays involving a light $1^3{P}_2$-tensor($T$) meson are investigated for the first time within the framework of perturbative QCD(pQCD) at leading order, in which the other meson is the lightest pseudoscalar($P$) or vector($V$) state. The concerned processes can only occur through the pure weak annihilation topology in the standard model. We predict the CP-averaged branching ratios and polarization fractions of those considered decays in Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa(CKM) favored and suppressed modes. Phenomenologically, several modes$-$such as the $B_c\to K_2^{\ast }(1430)K$ and the CKM-favored $B_c\to TV-$have large decay rates of $10^{-6}$, which are expected to be detected at Large Hadron Collider experiments in the near future. Moreover, all of the $B_c\to TV$ modes are governed by the longitudinal amplitudes in the pQCD calculations and the corresponding fractions vary around $78\%$-$98\%$. A confirmation of these results could prove the reliability of the pQCD approach used here and further shed some light on the annihilation decay mechanism.
