Using Martin’s potential, independently of b- and c-quark flavours, we calculate the mass spectrum of [Formula: see text]-mesons and widths of electromagnetic transition between them. We obtain the estimates of the production cross-section at e+e− colliders, in hadronic and neutrino interactions. A real possibility of observing Bc-mesons at LEP (up to 500 Bc per 106 Z0) and at hadron colliders [Formula: see text] has been pointed out. The importance of observing the annihilation decay channels of Bc-mesons—Bc→τντ( Br (Bc→τντ)=1.5–2%) and Bc→ϕDs, DK, etc.—has been emphasized.

How do elephants achieve their enormous vocal flexibility when communicating, imitating or creating idiosyncratic sounds? The mechanisms that underpin this trait combine motoric abilities with vocal learning processes. We demonstrate the unusual production techniques used by five African savanna elephants to create idiosyncratic sounds, which they learn to produce on cue by positive reinforcement training. The elephants generate these sounds by applying nasal tissue vibration via an ingressive airflow at the trunk tip, or by contracting defined superficial muscles at the trunk base. While the production mechanisms of the individuals performing the same sound categories are similar, they do vary in fine-tuning, revealing that each individual has its own specific sound-producing strategy. This plasticity reflects the creative and cognitive abilities associated with ‘vocal’ learning processes. The fact that these sounds were reinforced and cue-stimulated suggests that social feedback and positive reinforcement can facilitate vocal creativity and vocal learning behavior in elephants. Revealing the mechanism and the capacity for vocal learning and sound creativity is fundamental to understanding the eloquence within the elephants’ communication system. This also helps to understand the evolution of human language and of open-ended vocal systems, which build upon similar cognitive processes.
