The ratio of branching fractions $R_{K/pi} equiv mathcal{B}(B_{c}^{+} to J/psi K^{+})/mathcal{B}(B_{c}^{+} to J/psipi^{+})$ is measured with $pp$ collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7 TeV and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3${mbox{fb}^{-1}}$. It is found to be $ R_{K/pi} = 0.079pm0.007pm0.003$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This measurement is consistent with the previous LHCb result, while the uncertainties are significantly reduced.

A measurement is reported of the ratio of branching fractions $mathcal{R}(J/psi)=mathcal{B}(B_c^+,to,J/psitau^+ u_tau)/mathcal{B}(B_c^+,to,J/psi mu^+ u_mu)$, where the $tau^+$ lepton is identified in the decay mode $tau^+,to,mu^+ u_muoverline{ u}_tau$. This analysis uses a sample of proton-proton collision data corresponding to 3.0$mathrm{,fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity recorded with the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies $7,mathrm{TeV}$ and $8,mathrm{TeV}$. A signal is found for the decay $B_c^+,to,J/psi tau^+ u_tau$ at a significance of 3 standard deviations, corrected for systematic uncertainty, and the ratio of the branching fractions is measured to be $mathcal{R}(J/psi) = 0.71 pm 0.17 mathrm{,(stat)} pm 0.18mathrm{,(syst)}$. This result lies within 2 standard deviations above the range of existing predictions in the Standard Model.
The ratio of branching fractions and the difference in $CP$ asymmetries of the decays $B^+to J/psi pi^+$ and $B^+to J/psi K^+$ are measured using a data sample of $pp$ collisions collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3~{{,mbox{fb}^{-1}}}$ at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and $8~mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$. The results are begin{equation*} {mathcal{B}(B^+to J/psi pi^+)overmathcal{B}(B^+to J/psi K^+)}=(3.83pm0.03pm0.03)times10^{-2},, end{equation*} begin{equation*} mathcal{A}^{CP}(B^+to J/psi pi^+)-mathcal{A}^{CP}(B^+to J/psi K^+)=(1.82pm0.86pm0.14)times10^{-2}, end{equation*} where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. Combining this result with a recent LHCb measurement of $mathcal{A}^{CP}(B^+to J/psi K^+)$ provides the most precise estimate to date of $CP$ violation in the decay $B^+to J/psi pi^+$, begin{equation*} mathcal{A}^{CP}(B^+to J/psi pi^+) =(1.91pm0.89pm0.16)times10^{-2}. end{equation*}
A search for the decays $B_c^+ to J/psi D^{(*)0} K^+$ and $B_c^+ to J/psi D^{(*)+} K^{*0}$ is performed with data collected at the LHCb experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$. The decays $B_c^+ to J/psi D^0 K^+$ and $B_c^+ to J/psi D^{*0} K^+$ are observed for the first time, while first evidence is reported for the $B_c^+ to J/psi D^{*+} K^{*0}$ and $B_c^+ to J/psi D^+ K^{*0}$ decays. The branching fractions of these decays are determined relative to the $B_c^+ to J/psi pi^+$ decay. The $B_c^+$ mass is measured, using the $J/psi D^0 K^+$ final state, to be $6274.28 pm 1.40 (stat) pm 0.32 (syst)$ MeV/$c^2$. This is the most precise single measurement of the $B_c^+$ mass to date.
We present a measurement of the relative branching fraction, R_{f_{0}/phi}, of B_{s}^{0} to J/psi f_{0}(980), with f_{0}(980) to pi^+ pi^-, to the process B_{s}^{0} to J/psi phi, with phi to K^+K^-. The J/psi f_{0}(980) final state corresponds to a CP-odd eigenstate of B_{s}^{0} that could be of interest in future studies of CP violation. Using approximately 8fb^-1 of data recorded with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider, we find R_{f_{0}/phi} = 0.275 +- 0.041(stat) +- 0.061(syst).
The decay $B_c^+to J/psi K^+$ is observed for the first time using a data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 ${,fb}^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $7mathrm{,Tekern -0.1em V}$. A yield of $46pm12$ events is reported, with a significance of 5.0 standard deviations. The ratio of the branching fraction of $B_c^+to J/psi K^+$ to that of $B_c^+to J/psipi^+$ is measured to be $0.069pm0.019pm0.005$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.
