The statistical significance for both signals is in excess of 9 standard deviations. The following ratios of branching fractions are measured to be {\textquoteright}B(B-c(+) -> J/ psi D-s(+))/B(B-c(+) -> J/ psi pi(+)) = 2.90 +/- 0.57 +/- 0.24, B(B-c(+) -> J/psi D-s*(+))/B(B-c(+) -> J/ psi D-s(+)) = 2.37 +/- 0.56 +/- 0.10, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The mass of the B-c(+) meson is measured to be m(Bc+) = 6276.28 +/- 1.44(stat) +/- 0.36(syst) MeV/c(2), using the B-c(+) -> J/ psi D-s(+) decay mode.", optnote="WOS:000321070100001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1483), last updated on Thu, 01 Aug 2013 14:08:38 +0000", issn="1550-7998", doi="10.1103/PhysRevD.87.112012", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/arXiv:1304.4530", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.87.112012", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="arXiv:1304.4530", language="English" }
