Observation of the Λ0b → Λφ decay

Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics Elsevier 759 (2016) 282-292

Abstract:

The Λ0b → Λφ decay is observed using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb^-1 recorded by the LHCb experiment. The decay proceeds at leading order via a b → sss loop transition and is therefore sensitive to the possible presence of particles beyond the Standard Model. A first observation is reported with a significance of 5.9 standard deviations. The value of the branching fraction is measured to be (5.18 ± 1.04 ± 0.35^+0.67-0.62) X 10^-6, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is related to external inputs. Triple-product asymmetries are measured to be consistent with zero.

Search for violations of Lorentz invariance and CPT symmetry in Bs^0 mixing.

Physical Review Letters American Physical Society 116:24 (2016) 241601

Abstract:

Violations of CPT symmetry and Lorentz invariance are searched for by studying interference effects in B^0 mixing and in Bs^0 mixing. Samples of B^0 → J/ψKS^0 and Bs^0 → J/ψK^+K^- decays are recorded by the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb^-1. No periodic variations of the particle-antiparticle mass differences are found, consistent with Lorentz invariance and CPT symmetry. Results are expressed in terms of the standard model extension parameter Δaμ with precisions of O(10^-15) and O(10^-14)  GeV for the B^0 and Bs^0 systems, respectively. With no assumption on Lorentz (non)invariance, the CPT-violating parameter z in the Bs^0 system is measured for the first time and found to be Re(z) = -0.022 ± 0.033 ± 0.005 and Im(z) = 0.004 ± 0.011 ± 0.002, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.

Observation of B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{0}K_{S}^{0} and Evidence for B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{*}^{0}K_{S}^{0} Decays.

Physical Review Letters American Physical Society 116:16 (2016) 161802

Authors:

S-F Cheung, T Evans, P Gandini, R Gauld, E Greening, T Hadavizadeh, N Harnew, D Hill, N Hussain, J Jalocha, M John, O Lupton, S Malde, A Nandi, E Smith, S Stevenson, C Thomas, S Topp-Joergensen, N Torr, G Wilkinson

Abstract:

The first observation of the B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{0}K_{S}^{0} decay mode and evidence for the B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{*0}K_{S}^{0} decay mode are reported. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0  fb^{-1} collected in pp collisions by LHCb at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The branching fractions are measured to be B(B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{0}K[over ¯]^{0})=[4.3±0.5(stat)±0.3(syst)±0.3(frag)±0.6(norm)]×10^{-4},B(B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{*0}K[over ¯]^{0})=[2.8±1.0(stat)±0.3(syst)±0.2(frag)±0.4(norm)]×10^{-4},where the uncertainties are due to contributions coming from statistical precision, systematic effects, and the precision of two external inputs, the ratio f_{s}/f_{d} and the branching fraction of B^{0}→D[over ¯]^{0}K_{S}^{0}, which is used as a calibration channel.

Improved determination of the D → K−π+π+π− coherence factor and associated hadronic parameters from a combination of e+e-→ψ(3770)→cc̄ and pp→cc̄X data

Physics Letters B Elsevier 757 (2016) 520-527

Authors:

T Evans, ST Harnew, J Libby, Sneha Malde, J Rademacker, G Wilkinson

Abstract:

Measurements of the coherence factor RK3π, the average strong-phase difference δDK3π and mean amplitude ratio rDK3π for the decay D→K-π+π+π- are presented. These parameters are important inputs to the determination of the unitarity triangle angle γ in B-→DK- decays, where D designates a superposition of D0 and D-0 mesons decaying to a common final state. The results are based on a combined fit to observables obtained from a re-analysis of the CLEO-c ψ(3770) data set and those measured in a D0D-0 mixing study performed by the LHCb Collaboration.
