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 ...
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 ...
Observation of the B0s→η′η′ Decay
(American Physical Society, 2015-07-28)
The first observation of the B0s→η′η′ decay is reported. The study is based on a sample of proton-proton collisions corresponding to 3.0 fb−1 of integrated luminosity collected with the LHCb detector. ...
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 ...
Measurement of CP Violation in B0→J/ψK0S Decays
(American Physical Society, 2015-07-14)
Measurements are presented of the CP violation observables S and C in the decays of B0 and ¯B0 mesons to the J/ψK0S final state. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb−1 ...
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 ...
