B c excitations at LHC: first observations and further research prospects

Status of the B c meson excitatons search is presented in our work. We discuss the 2S B c states first discovered by ATLAS and newly confirmed by CMS and LHCb collaborations. We review the observation prospects for the rest predicted states ( B ∗ c , 2 P wave, 3 P wave and D wave) at LHC experiments...

Summary:Status of the B c meson excitatons search is presented in our work. We discuss the 2S B c states first discovered by ATLAS and newly confirmed by CMS and LHCb collaborations. We review the observation prospects for the rest predicted states ( B ∗ c , 2 P wave, 3 P wave and D wave) at LHC experiments. Cascade decays to the ground state as well as direct decays to the lepton pair are regarded for these states.
