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 ...
Determination of the quark coupling strength |Vub| using baryonic decays
(Nature, 2015-07)
In the Standard Model of particle physics, the strength of the couplings of the b quark to the u and c quarks, |Vub| and |Vcb|, are governed by the coupling of the quarks to the Higgs boson. Using data ...
Search for the Λ 0b → Λη ′ and Λ 0b → Λη decays with the LHCb detector
(Springer, 2015-09-01)
A search is performed for the as yet unobserved baryonic Λ 0b → Λη ′ and Λ 0b → Λη decays with 3 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment. The B0 → K 0s η ′ decay is used ...
Measurement of the Z+b-jet cross-section in pp collisions at s√ = 7 TeV in the forward region
(Springer, 2015-01-13)
The associated production of a Z boson or an off-shell photon γ * with a bottom quark in the forward region is studied using proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The Z bosons ...
