- Abstract
We study the weak decays of B(s) and Bc into D-wave heavy-light mesons, including J P = 2- (D(s)2, D'(s)2, B(s)2, B'(s)2) and 3- (D∗(s)3, B*(s)3) states. The weak decay hadronic matrix elements are obtained based on the instantaneous Bethe-Salpeter method. The branching ratios for the B decays are B[ B →D²eνe] = 1.1-0.3+0.3 ×10-3, B[ B → D' 2eνe] = 4.1-0.8+0.9 × 10-4, and B[ B → D∗ 3e¯νe] = 1.0-0.2 +0.2 ×10-3, respectively. For the semi-electronic decays of Bs to Ds2, D's2, and D∗ s3, the corresponding branching ratios are 1.7-0.5 +0.5 ×10-3, 5.2-1.5+1.6×10-4, and 1.5-0.4 +0.4 ×10-3, respectively. The branching ratios of the semi-electronic decays of Bc to D-wave D mesons are in the order of 10-5. We also obtained the forward-backward asymmetry, angular spectra, and lepton momentum spectra. In particular the distribution of decay widths for the 2- states D2 and D'² varying along with mixing angle are presented.
