## TL;DR

This paper discusses the current observations and future prospects of excited $B_c$ meson states at LHC experiments, including potential detection of various higher wave states.

## Contribution

It provides an analysis of observed $2S$ $B_c$ states and estimates the observability of multiple higher excited states at LHC.

## Key findings

- Observation of $2S$ $B_c$ states by ATLAS, CMS, LHCb
- Estimated detection prospects for $B_c^*$, $2P$, $3P$, and $D$ wave states
- Discussion of experimental challenges and opportunities

## Abstract

The $2S$ $B_c$ states observed by ATLAS, CMS and LHCb Collaborations are discussed. The observation perspectives of $B_c^*$, $2P$ wave, $3P$ wave and $D$ wave states of $B_c$ at LHC experiments are estimated.
