Abstract

A search for the decays Bc+ → J/ψ D(*)0 K+ and Bc+ → J/ψ D(*)+ K*0 is performed with data collected at the LHCb experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb^−1. The decays Bc+ → J/ψ D0 K+ and Bc+ → J/ψ D*0 K+ are observed for the first time, while first evidence is reported for the Bc+ → J/ψ D*+ K*0 and Bc+ → J/ψ D+ K*0 decays. The branching fractions of these decays are determined relative to the Bc+ → J/ψ π+ decay. The Bc+ mass is measured, using the J/ψ D0 K+ final state, to be 6274.28 ± 1.40 (stat) ± 0.32 (syst) MeV/c^2. This is the most precise single measurement of the Bc+ mass to date.
