Study of the psi(2)(3823) and chi(c1)(3872) states in B+->(J/psi pi(+)pi(-))K(+)decays

The decays B+-> J/psi pi(+)pi(-)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 between 2011 and 2018. Precise measurements of the ratios of branching fractions with the intermediate psi(2)(3823), chi(c1)(3872) and psi(2S) states are reported. The values areBB+->psi 2(">3823K+xB psi 2(">3823 -> J/psi pi+pi-BB+->chi c1>3872K+xB chi c1>3872 -> J/psi pi+pi-=>3.56 +/- 0.67 +/- 0.11x10-2,BB+->psi 2>3823K+xB psi 2>3823 -> J/psi pi+pi-BB+->psi>2SK+xB psi>2S -> J/psi pi+pi-=>1.31 +/- 0.25 +/- 0.04x10-3,BB+->chi c1>3872K+xB chi c1>3872 -> J/psi pi+pi-BB+->psi>2SK+xB psi>2S -> J/psi pi+pi-= where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The decay of B+->psi(2)(3823)K(+)with psi(2)(3823)-> J/psi pi(+)pi(-)is observed for the first time with a significance of 5.1 standard deviations. The mass differences between the psi(2)(3823), chi(c1)(3872) and psi(2S) states are measured to be m chi c1>3872-m psi 2>3823=47. 50 +/- 0.53 +/- 0.13MeV/c2,m psi 2 2S=185.49 +/- 0.06 +/- 0.03MeV/c2, resulting in the most precise determination of the chi(c1)(3872) mass. The width of the psi(2)(3823) state is found to be below 5.2 MeV at 90% confidence level. The Breit-Wigner width of the chi(c1)(3872) state is measured to be Gamma chi c13872BW=0.96-0.18+0.19 +/- 0.21MeV={0.96}_{-0.18}{+0.19}\pm 0.21;\mathrm{MeV} which is inconsistent with zero by 5.5 standard deviations.

The decays B-c(+) -> J/ psi D-s(+) and B-c(+) -> J/ psi D-s*(+) are observed for the first time using a dataset, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb(-1), collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of root s = 7 and 8 TeV. The statistical significance for both signals is in excess of 9 standard deviations. The following ratios of branching fractions are measured to be 'B(B-c(+) -> J/ psi D-s(+))/B(B-c(+) -> J/ psi pi(+)) = 2.90 +/- 0.57 +/- 0.24, B(B-c(+) -> J/psi D-s*(+))/B(B-c(+) -> J/ psi D-s(+)) = 2.37 +/- 0.56 +/- 0.10, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The mass of the B-c(+) meson is measured to be m(Bc+) = 6276.28 +/- 1.44(stat) +/- 0.36(syst) MeV/c(2), using the B-c(+) -> J/ psi D-s(+) decay mode.

Measurement of the B-s(0) -> mu(+)mu(-) Branching Fraction and Search for B-0 -> mu(+)mu(-) Decays at the LHCb Experiment

A search for the rare decays B-s(0) -> mu(+)mu(-) and B-0 -> mu(+)mu(-) is performed at the LHCb experiment. The data analyzed correspond to an integrated luminosity of 1 fb(-1) of pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV and 2 fb(-1) at 8 TeV. An excess of B-s(0) -> mu(+)mu(-) signal candidates with respect to the background expectation is seen with a significance of 4.0 standard deviations. A time-integrated branching fraction of B(B-s(0) -> mu(+)mu(-)) = (2.9(-1.0)(+1.1)) x 10(-9) is obtained and an upper limit of B(B-0 -> mu(+)mu(-)) < 7.4 x 10(-10) at 95% confidence level is set. These results are consistent with the standard model expectations.

The first observation of the (B) over bar (0) -> J/psi K+K- decay is presented with a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb(-1) of pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV collected with the LHCb detector. The branching fraction is measured to be B((B) over bar (0) -> J/psi K+K-) = (2.53 +/- 0.31 +/- 0.19) x 10(-6), where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. An amplitude analysis of the final state in the (B) over bar (0) -> J/psi K+K- decay is performed to separate resonant and nonresonant contributions in the K+K- spectrum. Evidence of the a(0)(980) resonance is reported with statistical significance of 3.9 standard deviations. The corresponding product branching fraction is measured to be B((B) over bar (0) -> J/psi a(0)(980), a(0)(980) -> K+K-) = (4.70 +/- 3.31 +/- 0.72) x 10(-7), yielding an upper limit of B((B) over bar (0) -> J/psi a(0)(980), a(0)(980) -> K+K-) < 9.0 x 10(-7) at 90% confidence level. No evidence of the resonant decay (0) J/psi phi is found, and an upper limit on its branching fraction is set to be B((B) over bar (0) -> J/psi phi)
