Semileptonic and nonleptonic B decays to three charm quarks: B->J/psi (eta_c) D l nu and J/psi (eta_c) D pi

We evaluate the form factors describing the semileptonic decays $\bar{B^0}\to J/\psi (\eta_c) D^+ \ell^- \bar \nu_\ell$, within the framework of a QCD relativistic potential model. This decay is complementary to $\bar{B^0}\to J/\psi (\eta_c) D^+ \pi^-$ in a phase space region where a pion factors out.We estimate the branching ratio for these semileptonic and nonleptonic channels, finding $\mathcal{BR}(\bar{B^0} \to J/\psi (\eta_c) D^+ \ell \nu_\ell) \simeq 10^{-13}$, $\mathcal{BR}(\bar{B^0} \to J/\psi D^+ \pi^-) = 3.1 \times 10^{-8}$ and $\mathcal{BR}(\bar{B^0} \to \eta_c D^+ \pi^-) = 3.5 \times 10^{-8}$.
