\title{\boldmath{ $B^+_c$}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ $***$}
\maketitle
The $B^+_c$ is the lightest meson containing a bottom and a charm quark. It has been observed and the mass and lifetime measured but only one decay mode and no branching ratios are known. The mass and lifetime are taken from \cite{Yao:2006px}. The branching ratios for the exclusive modes are taken from \cite{Kiselev:2003mp} , as in EvtGen. The remaining partonic modes have been add to ensure the branching ratios sum to one and roughly give the totals for the exclusive modes taken from \cite{Kiselev:2003mp} .
The $B^+_c$ has mass $6286$~MeV and is unstable. The $B^+_c$ has spin $0$, charge $1$ and is colour neutral.
 The $B^+_c$ is a meson and is from the $1^1S_0$ multiplet.The properties of the particle and its antiparticle are taken to be charge-conjugate to each other.
 The decay length is $0.000138$~m. The PDG code is 541.
