A search for the decays of the $B_c^+$ meson to $pbar ppi^+$ is performed for the first time using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of $7$ and $8$ TeV. No signal is found and an upper limit, at 95% confidence level, is set, $frac{f_c}{f_u}timesmathcal{B}(B_c^+to pbar ppi^+)<3.6times10^{-8}$ in the kinematic region $m(pbar p)<2.85mathrm{,Gekern -0.1em V!/}c^2$, $p_{rm T}(B)<20mathrm{,Gekern -0.1em V!/}c$ and $2.0<y(B)<4.5$, where $mathcal{B}$ is the branching fraction and $f_c$ ($f_u$) is the fragmentation fraction of the $b$ quark into a $B_c^+$ ($B^+$) meson.

A study of $B_c^+to K^+K^-pi^+$ decays is performed for the first time using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of $7$ and $8$ TeV. Ev idence for the decay $B_c^+tochi_{c0}(to K^+K^-)pi^+$ is reported with a significance of 4.0 standard deviations, resulting in the measurement of $frac{sigma(B_c^+)}{sigma(B^+)}timesmathcal{B}(B_c^+tochi_{c0}pi^+)$ to be $(9.8^{+3.4}_{-3.0}(mathrm{stat})pm 0.8(mathrm{syst}))times 10^{-6}$. Here $mathcal{B}$ denotes a branching fraction while $sigma(B_c^+)$ and $sigma(B^+)$ are the production cross-sections for $B_c^+$ and $B^+$ mesons. An indication of $bar b c$ weak annihilation is found for the region $m(K^-pi^+)<1.834mathrm{,Gekern -0.1em V!/}c^2$, with a significance of 2.4 standard deviations.
A search for decays of $B_c^+$ mesons to two charm mesons is performed for the first time using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The decays considered are $B_c^+to D^{(*)+}_{(s)} overline{D}^{(*)0}$ and $B_c^+to D^{(*)+}_{(s)} D^{(*)0}$, which are normalised to high-yield $B^+to D^+_{(s)} overline{D}^0$ decays. No evidence for a signal is found and limits are set on twelve $B_c^+$ decay modes.
A data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9 text{fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment has been analysed to search for $B_c^+ to D^{(*)+}_{(s)} overset{scriptstyle (-)}{D}{}^{(*)0}$ decays. The decays a re fully or partially reconstructed, where one or two missing neutral pions or photons from the decay of an excited charm meson are allowed. Upper limits for the branching fractions, normalised to $B^+$ decays to final states with similar topologies, are obtained for fourteen $B_c^+$ decay modes. For the decay $B_c^+ to D_s^+ {overline{D}}^0$, an excess with a significance of 3.4 standard deviations is found.
We report a search for $B$ decays to selected final states with the $eta_c$ meson: $B^{pm}to K^{pm}eta_cpi^+pi^-$, $B^{pm}to K^{pm}eta_comega$, $B^{pm}to K^{pm}eta_ceta$ and $B^{pm}to K^{pm}eta_cpi^0$. The analysis is based on $772times 10^6$ $Bbar{B }$ pairs collected at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. We set 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions of the studied $B$ decay modes, independent of intermediate resonances, in the range $(0.6-5.3)times 10^{-4}$. We also search for molecular-state candidates in the $D^0bar{D}^{*0}-bar{D}^0D^{*0}$, $D^0bar{D}^0+bar{D}^0D^0$ and $D^{*0}bar{D}^{*0}+bar{D}^{*0}D^{*0}$ combinations, neutral partners of the $Z(3900)^{pm}$ and $Z(4020)^{pm}$, and a poorly understood state $X(3915)$ as possible intermediate states in the decay chain, and set 90% confidence level upper limits on the product of branching fractions to the mentioned intermediate states and decay branching fractions of these states in the range $(0.6-6.9)times 10^{-5}$.
Using a sample of $1.06times10^{8}~psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, the decays $eta_{c}(2S)to pbar{p}$ and $h_{c}to pbar{p}$ are searched for, where $eta_c(2S)$ and $h_c$ are reconstructed in the decay chains $psi(3686) togammaeta_{c}(2S)$, $eta_{c}(2S)to pbar{p}$ and $psi(3686)topi^{0}h_{c}$, $h_{c}to pbar{p}$, respectively. No significant signals are observed. The upper limits of the product branching fractions are determined to be $mathcal{B}(psi(3686)togammaeta_c(2S))timesmathcal{B}(eta_{c}(2S)to pbar{p})<1.4times10^{-6}$ and $mathcal{B}(psi(3686)topi^0h_c)timesmathcal{B}(h_{c}to pbar{p})<1.3times10^{-7}$ at the 90% C.L.. The branching fractions for $chi_{cJ}to pbar{p}$ $(J=0,~1,~2)$ are also measured to be $(24.5pm0.8pm1.3,~8.6pm0.5pm0.5,~8.4pm0.5pm0.5)times10^{-5}$, which are the worlds most precise measurements.
