Resumo

Following the experimental results from LHCb on the rare decay B-c(+) -> K+K-pi(+), we investigate the possibility where this process is dominated by a double charm rescattering. The B-c decay to double charm channels have a weak topology that is favoredin comparison with the direct production of K-K+pi(+) in the final state, suppressed by quark annihilation. The decay amplitude for B+ c. K-K+ p+ with Bcdecaying first to double charm channels is described by charm hadronic triangle loops, which reach the final state of interest after D (D) over bar -> K (K) over bar or D+ D-s(-)-> pi(+)K(-)transitions. We show that these processes give rise to non-resonant amplitudes with a clear signature in the Dalitz plot. In a near future, the new data from LHCb run II will be able to confirme if the main hypotheses of this work is correct and the dominant mechanism to produce K+K+pi(-) from the decay of B+ cis through charm rescattering.
