Measurement of the ratio of B+c branching fractions to J/ψπ+ and J/ψμ+νμ final states
(American Physical Society, 2014-08-27)
The first measurement that relates semileptonic and hadronic decay rates of the B+c meson is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to 1.0 fb−1 of integrated luminosity collected ...
Observation of charmonium pairs produced exclusively in pp collisions
(IOPscience, 2014-09)
A search is performed for the central exclusive production of pairs of charmonia produced in proton-proton collisions. Using data corresponding to an
integrated luminosity of 3 fb−1 collected at ...
Measurement of ϒ production in pp collisions at √ s = 2.76 TeV
(Springer, 2014-04-29)
The production of Υ(1S), Υ(2S) and Υ(3S) mesons decaying into the dimuon final state is studied with the LHCb detector using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.3pb−1 collected ...
Study of B− → DK−π+π− and B− → Dπ−π+π− decays and determination of the CKM angle γ
(American Physical Society, 2015-12-17)
We report a study of the suppressed B−→DK−π+π− and favored B−→Dπ−π+π− decays, where the neutral D meson is detected through its decays to the K∓π± and CP -even K+K− and π+π− final states. The measurement ...
First observation of B0 → D∗+ Xμ−ν decays
(Elsevier, 2011)
Using data collected with the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, the semileptonic decays Bs -> Ds+ X mu nu and Bs -> D0 K+ X mu nu are detected. Two structures ...
Evidence for the Strangeness-Changing Weak Decay Ξ−b→Λ0bπ−
(American Physical Society, 2015-12-11)
Using a pp collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb−1, collected by the LHCb detector, we present the first search for the strangeness-changing weak decay Ξ−b→Λ0bπ−. ...
First Observation of Top Quark Production in the Forward Region
(American Physical Society, 2015-09-08)
Top quark production in the forward region in proton-proton collisions is observed for the first time. The W+b final state with W→μν is reconstructed using muons with a transverse momentum, pT, larger ...
Measurement of the cross-section ratio σ(χc2)/σ(χc1) for prompt χc production at √s=7TeV
(Elsevier, 2012-08-14)
The prompt production of the charmonium $\chi_{c1}$ and $\chi_{c2}$ mesons has been studied in proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=7$ TeV. The ...
Measurement of D0–¯¯¯D0 Mixing Parameters and Search for CP Violation Using D0→K+π− Decays
(American Physical Society, 2013-12-18)
Measurements of charm mixing parameters from the decay-time-dependent ratio of D0→K+π− to D0→K−π+ rates and the charge-conjugate ratio are reported. The analysis uses data, corresponding to 3 fb−1 of ...
Study of B0s → J/ψπ+π−K+K− decays
(Springer, 2021-02)
The decays B0s → J/ψπ+π−K+K− are studied using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1, collected with the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of ...
