Measurements of $B_c^+$ production and mass are performed with the decay mode $B_c^+ to J/psi pi^+$ using 0.37 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected in $pp$ collisions at $sqrt{s}=7$ TeV by the LHCb experiment. The ratio of the production cross-section times branching fraction between the $B_c^+ to J/psi pi^+$ and the $B^+ to J/psi K^+$ decays is measured to be $(0.68 pm 0.10,({rm stat.}) pm 0.03,({rm syst.}) pm 0.05,({rm lifetime}))$% for $B_c^+$ and $B^+$ mesons with transverse momenta $p_{rm T}>4 $GeV/$c$ and pseudorapidities $2.5<eta<4.5$. The $B_c^+$ mass is directly measured to be $6273.7 pm 1.3,({rm stat.}) pm 1.6 ,({rm syst.})$ MeV/$c^2$, and the measured mass difference with respect to the $B^+$ meson is $M(B_c^+)-M(B^+) = 994.6 pm 1.3,({rm stat.}) pm 0.6,({rm syst.})$ MeV/$c^2$.

The decay $B_crightarrow J/psi K^+ K^- pi^+$ is observed for the first time, using proton-proton collisions collected with the LHCb detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3fb$^{-1}$. A signal yield of $78pm14$ decays is reported with a significance of 6.2 standard deviations. The ratio of the branching fraction of $B_c rightarrow J/psi K^+ K^- pi^+$ decays to that of $B_c rightarrow J/psi pi^+$ decays is measured to be $0.53pm 0.10pm0.05$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.
The decay $B_c^+ to psi(2S)pi^+$ with $psi(2S) to mu^+mu^-$ is observed with a significance of $5.2,sigma$ using $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0,invfb$ collected by the LHCb experiment. The branching fraction of $B_c^+ to psi(2S)pi^+$ decays relative to that of the $B_c^+ to J/psipi^+$ mode is measured to be begin{equation*} frac{mathcal{B}(B_c^+ to psi(2S)pi^+)}{mathcal{B}(B_c^+ to J/psipi^+)} = 0.250 pm 0.068 ,text{stat} pm 0.014 ,text{syst} pm 0.006 ,(mathcal{B}). end{equation*} The last term is the uncertainty on the ratio $mathcal{B}(psi(2S) to mu^+mu^-)/mathcal{B}(J/psi to mu^+mu^-)$.
Using $pp$ collision data collected by LHCb at center-of-mass energies $sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$, the ratio of the branching fraction of the $B_c^+ rightarrow psi(2S)pi^+$ decay relative to that of the $B_c^+ rightarrow J/psipi^+$ decay is measured to be 0.268 $pm$ 0.032 (stat) $pm$ 0.007 (syst) $pm$ 0.006 (BF). The first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is due to the uncertainties on the branching fractions of the $J/psi rightarrow mu^+mu^-$ and $psi(2S) rightarrow mu^+mu^-$ decays. This measurement is consistent with the previous LHCb result, and the statistical uncertainty is halved.
Evidence is presented for the decay $B_c+rightarrow J/psi 3pi^+2pi^-$ using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3fb$^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb detector. A signal yield of $32pm8$ decays is found with a sign ificance of 4.5 standard deviations. The ratio of the branching fraction of the $B_c^+rightarrow J/psi 3pi^+ 2pi^-$ decay to that of the $B_c^+ rightarrow J/psi pi^+$ decay is measured to be $$ frac{Br (B_c^+ rightarrow J/psi 3pi^+2pi^)}{Br (B_c^+ rightarrow J/psi pi^+)} = 1.74pm0.44pm0.24, $$ where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.

In this paper, we calculate the $B_cto J/psi$ helicity form factors (HFFs) up to twist-4 accuracy by using the light-cone sum rules approach. After extrapolating those HFFs to the physically allowable $q^2$ region, we investigate the $B^+_c$-meson tw o-body decays and semi-leptonic decays $B_c^+ to J/psi+(P, V, ell^+ u_ell)$, where $P$ and $V$ stand for a light pseudo-scalar meson and a vector meson, respectively. The branching fractions can be derived by using the CKM matrix element and the $B_c$ lifetime from the Particle Data Group, and we obtain ${cal B}(B_c^+ to J/psi pi^+)=(0.132^{+0.002}_{-0.002})%$, ${cal B}(B_c^+ to J/psi K^+)=(0.010^{+0.000}_{-0.000})%$, ${cal B}(B_c^+ to J/psi rho^+) =(0.755^{+0.030}_{-0.034})%$, ${cal B}(B_c^+ to J/psi K^{ast +})=(0.043^{+0.001}_{-0.001})%$, ${cal B}(B_c^+ to J/psi mu^+ u_mu)=(2.808^{+0.547}_{-0.704})%$ and ${cal B}(B_c^+ to J/psi tau^+ u_tau)=(0.563^{+0.137}_{-0.178})%$. We then obtain ${cal R}_{pi^+/mu^+ u_mu} = 0.047^{+ 0.009}_{-0.012}$ and ${cal R}_{K^+ / pi^+} = 0.075^{+0.005}_{-0.005}$, which agree with the LHCb measured value within $1sigma$-error. We also obtain ${cal R}_{J/psi}=0.200^{+ 0.062}_{-0.081}$, which like other theoretical predictions, are consistent with the LHCb measured value within $2sigma$-error.
