Abstract:
The $\bar{\Lambda} / \Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda} / K^0_\mathrm{S}$ production
ratios are measured by the LHCb detector from $0.3\,\mathrm{nb}^{-1}$ of $pp$
collisions delivered by the LHC at $\sqrt{s} = 0.9$\,TeV and
$1.8\,\mathrm{nb}^{-1}$ at $\sqrt{s} = 7$\,TeV. Both ratios are presented as a
function of transverse momentum, $p_\mathrm{T}$, and rapidity, $y$, in the
ranges {$0.15 < p_\mathrm{T} < 2.50\,\mathrm{GeV}/c$} and {$2.0
Measurements of the properties of Λc(2595), Λc(2625), Σc(2455), and Σc(2520) baryons

Abstract:
We report measurements of the resonance properties of Λc(2595)+ and Λc(2625)+ baryons in their decays to Λc+π+π- as well as Σc(2455)++,0 and Σc(2520)++,0 baryons in their decays to Λc+π± final states. These measurements are performed using data corresponding to 5.2 fb-1 of integrated luminosity from pp¯ collisions at s=1.96 TeV, collected with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. Exploiting the largest available charmed baryon sample, we measure masses and decay widths with uncertainties comparable to the world averages for Σc states, and significantly smaller uncertainties than the world averages for excited Λc+ states.
Measurement of b hadron lifetimes in exclusive decays containing a J/ψ in pp collisions at √s=1.96 TeV.

Abstract:
We report on a measurement of b-hadron lifetimes in the fully reconstructed decay modes B(+)→J/ψK(+), B⁰→J/ψK*(892)⁰, B⁰→J/ψK(s)⁰, and Λ(b)⁰→J/ψΛ⁰ using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.3 fb⁻¹, collected by the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The measured lifetimes are τ(B(+))=[1.639±0.009(stat)±0.009(syst)] ps, τ(B⁰)=[1.507±0.010(stat)±0.008(syst)] ps, and τ(Λ(b)⁰)=[1.537±0.045(stat)±0.014(syst)] ps. The lifetime ratios are τ(B(+))/τ(B⁰)=[1.088±0.009(stat)±0.004(syst)] and τ(Λ(b)⁰)/τ(B⁰)=[1.020±0.030(stat)±0.008(syst)]. These are the most precise determinations of these quantities from a single experiment.

Abstract:
We report on a measurement of b-hadron lifetimes in the fully reconstructed decay modes B+→J/ψK+, B0→J/ ψK*(892)0, B0→J/ψKs0, and Λb0→J/ψΛ0 using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.3fb-1, collected by the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The measured lifetimes are τ(B+)=[1.639±0.009(stat)±0.009(syst)] ps, τ(B0)=[1.507±0.010(stat)±0.008(syst)]ps, and τ(Λb0)=[1.537±0.045(stat)±0.014(syst)]ps. The lifetime ratios are τ(B+)/τ(B0)=[1.088±0.009(stat)±0. 004(syst)] and τ(Λb0)/τ(B0)=[1.020±0.030(stat)±0. 008(syst)].
