The LHCb upgrade I

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, A. S. W. Abdelmotteleb +1305

The LHCb upgrade represents a major change of the experiment. The detectors have been almost completely renewed to allow running at an instantaneous luminosity five times larger th…

Test of lepton universality using $B^{+} \to K^{+} ℓ^{+} ℓ^{-}$ decays

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, B. Adeva +697

A measurement of the ratio of the branching fractions of the $B^{+} \to K^{+} μ^{+} μ^{-}$ and $B^{+} \to K^{+} e^{+} e^{-}$ decays is presented using proton-proton colli…

First measurement of the charge asymmetry in beauty-quark pair production at a hadron collider

R. Aaij, B. Adeva, M. Adinolfi +700

The difference in the angular distributions between beauty quarks and antiquarks, referred to as the charge asymmetry, is measured for the first time in $b b ˉ$ pair production…

Measurement of the $Ξ_{b}^{-}$ and $Ω_{b}^{-}$ baryon lifetimes

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, B. Adeva +691

Using a data sample of pp collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3 f b^{- 1}$ , the $Ξ_{b}^{-}$ and $Ω_{b}^{-}$ baryons are reconstructed in the $Ξ_b^- \rightarrow J/ψΞ…

Measurement of the ratio of branching fractions BR(B0 -> K0 gamma)/BR(Bs0 -> phi gamma) and the direct CP asymmetry in B0 -> K0 gamma

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, C. Abellan Beteta +621

The ratio of branching fractions of the radiative B decays B0 -> K*0 gamma and Bs0 phi gamma has been measured using an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb-1 of pp collision data colle…

Measurement of the CP-violating phase ϕs in Bs->J/ψπ+π- decays

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, C. Abellan Beteta +592

Measurement of the mixing-induced CP-violating phase phi_s in Bs decays is of prime importance in probing new physics. Here 7421 +/- 105 signal events from the dominantly CP-odd fi…
