Experimental and numerical investigation of the unbalance behavior of rigid rotors supported by spiral-grooved gas journal bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Elia Iseli

The forced response of rigid rotors, supported by herringbone-grooved gas journal bearings are investigated numerically and experimentally. The rotor configurations are varied by using end cylinders, attached at both sides of the shaft. Three rotors with d ...

Observation of New Resonances Decaying to J=Psi K plus and J=Psi phi

Lesya Shchutska, Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Yiming Li, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Michel De Cian, Elena Graverini

The first observation of exotic states with a new quark content ccus decaying to the J/Psi K+ final state is reported with high significance from an amplitude analysis of the B+-> J/ Psi phi K+ decay. The analysis is carried out using proton-proton collisi ...

Evidence of a J/psi Lambda structure and observation of excited Xi(-) states in the Xi(-)(b) -> J/psi Lambda K- decay

Lesya Shchutska, Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Yiming Li, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Tatsuya Nakada, Christoph Frei, Michel De Cian, Elena Graverini

First evidence of a structure in the J/psi Lambda invariant mass distribution is obtained from an amplitude analysis of Xi(-)(b) -> J/psi Lambda K- decays. The observed structure is consistent with being due to a charmonium pentaquark with strangeness with ...

First Observation of Excited Omega(-)(b) States

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Yiming Li, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Michel De Cian, Luca Pescatore, Elena Graverini

We report four narrow peaks in the Xi K-0(b)- mass spectrum obtained using pp collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 9 fb(-1) recorded by the LHCb experiment. Referring to these states b ...

Observation of the Radiative Decays of Upsilon(1S) to chi(c1)

Olivier Schneider, Yiming Li, Mingkui Wang, Chao Wang, Tagir Aushev, Sun Hee Kim, Donghyun Kim, Xiao Wang

We report the first observation of the radiative decay of the Upsilon(1S) into a charmonium state. The significance of the observed signal of Upsilon(1S) -> gamma chi(c1) is 6.3 standard deviations including systematics. The branching fraction is calculate ...
