| contents | We investigate the decays $B_c^- \rightarrow D_{s}^{(*)-}\ell^+\ell^-$ and $B_c^- \rightarrow D_{s}^{(*)-}ν\barν$ within the Standard Model (SM), employing perturbative QCD form factors that are sensitive to the wave functions of $B_c$ and $D_{s}^{(*)}$ mesons. We determine the shape parameters of these mesons and the $B_c \to D_s^{(*)}$ form factors at $q^2 = 0$ from available lattice QCD inputs for $B_s \to D_s^{(*)}$ and $B_c \to D_s$ transitions. To obtain the $q^2$ dependence of the $B_c \to D_s^*$ form factors, we employ heavy-quark spin symmetry and an appropriate parametrisation scheme over the allowed $q^2$ region. Based on these inputs, we present predictions for branching ratios and lepton-flavour-sensitive observables. Furthermore, we perform a detailed angular analysis of the cascade decay $B_c^- \to D_s^{*-}(\to D_s^- π^0)\,\ell^+\ell^-$, providing Standard Model predictions for several angular observables. |
