Measurement of the (B)over-bar(s)(0) Effective Lifetime in the J/psi f(0)(980) Final State

Olivier Schneider, Yiming Li, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Michel De Cian

The effective lifetime of the (B) over bar (0)(s) meson in the decay mode (B) over bar (0)(s) -> J / psi f(0)(980) is measured using 1.0 fb(-1) of data collected in p p collisions at root s = 7 TeV with the LHCb detector. The result is 1.700 +/- 0.040 +/- ...

Absolute luminosity measurements with the LHCb detector at the LHC

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Christoph Frei, Frédéric Blanc, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Michel De Cian, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Raluca Anca Muresan

Absolute luminosity measurements are of general interest for colliding-beam experiments at storage rings. These measurements are necessary to determine the absolute cross-sections of reaction processes and are valuable to quantify the performance of the ac ...

Measurements of the branching fractions and CP asymmetries of B-+/- -> J/psi pi(+/-) and B-+/- -> psi(2S)pi(+/-) decays

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Christoph Frei, Frédéric Blanc, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Michel De Cian, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Raluca Anca Muresan

A study of B-+/- -> J/psi pi(+/-) and B-+/- -> psi(2S)pi(+/-) decays is performed with data corresponding to 0.37 fb(-1) of proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV. Their branching fractions are found to be B(B-+/- -> J/psi pi(+/-)) = (3.88 +/- 0.11 +/- ...

Measurement of the D-s(+)-D-s(-) production asymmetry in 7 TeV pp collisions

Olivier Schneider, Yiming Li, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Michel De Cian

Heavy quark production in 7 TeV centre-of-mass energy pp collisions at the LHC is not necessarily flavour symmetric. The production asymmetry, A(P), between D-s(+) and D-s(-) mesons is studied using the phi pi(+/-) decay mode in a data sample of 1.0 fb(-1) ...

Measurement of b hadron production fractions in 7 TeV pp collisions

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Christoph Frei, Frédéric Blanc, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Michel De Cian, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Raluca Anca Muresan

Measurements of b hadron production ratios in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 3 pb(-1) are presented. We study the ratios of strange B meson to light B meson production f(s)/(f(u) + f(d)) and La ...

Measurement of the ratio of branching fractions B(B-0 -> K*(0)gamma)/B(B-s(0) -> phi gamma)

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Christoph Frei, Frédéric Blanc, Tatsuya Nakada, Julien Rouvinet, Michel De Cian, Barinjaka Rakotomiaramanana, Christophe Salzmann

The ratio of branching fractions of the radiative B decays B-0 -> K*(0)gamma and B(0)s -> phi gamma has been measured using 0.37 fb(-1) of pp collisions at a center of mass energy of root s = 7 TeV, collected by the LHCb experiment. The value obtained is B ...

Searches for heavy Majorana neutrinos in B- decays in final states containing hadrons plus a mu(-) mu(-) pair have been performed using 0.41 fb(-1) of data collected with the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. Th ...

Measurements of the branching fractions of the decays B-s(0) -> (DsK +/-)-K--/+ and B-s(0) -> D-s(-)pi(+)

The decay mode B-s(0) -> (DsK +/-)-K--/+ allows for one of the theoretically cleanest measurements of the CKM angle gamma through the study of time-dependent CP violation. This paper reports a measurement of its branching fraction relative to the Cabibbo-f ...

A search for the decays B-s(0) -> mu(+)mu(-) and B-0 -> mu(+)mu(-) is performed with 0.37 fb(-1) of pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV collected by the LHCb experiment in 2011. The upper limits on the branching fractions are B(B-s(0) -> mu(+)mu(-)) < 1.6 x 10 ...

Determination of the Sign of the Decay Width Difference in the B-s(0) System

The interference between the K+K- S-wave and P-wave amplitudes in B-s(0) -> J/psi K+K- decays with the K+K- pairs in the region around the phi(1020) resonance is used to determine the variation of the difference of the strong phase between these amplitudes ...
