Production of $Z_{cs}$ in $B$ and $B_s$ decay

Abstract

In the present work, we investigate the production of $Z_{cs}^+$ in $B^+$ and $B_s^0$ decay, where $Z_{cs}^+$ is assigned as a $D_s^{+} \bar{D}^{\ast0} + D_s^{\ast +}\bar{D}^0$ molecular state. By using an effective Lagrangian approach, we evaluate the branching ratio of $B^0_s\rightarrow K^- Z^+_{cs}$ and $B^+\rightarrow \phi Z^{+}_{cs}$ via the triangle loop mechanism. The estimated branching fractions of $B^0_s\rightarrow K^- Z^+_{cs}$ and $B^+\rightarrow \phi Z^{+}_{cs}$ are an order of $10^{-4} $ and $10^{-5}$, respectively. The ratio of these two branching fraction is estimated to be about 5, which indicate that the $B_s^0 \to K^\pm Z^\mp_{cs} \to K^+ K^- J/\psi$ may be a better process of searching $Z_{cs}$ and accessible for further experimental measurement of the Belle II and LHCb collaborations.
