Constraints on the unitarity triangle angle $γ$ from Dalitz plot analysis of $B^{0} \to D K^{+} π^{-}$ decays

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, C. Abellán Beteta +731

The first study is presented of CP violation with an amplitude analysis of the Dalitz plot of $B^{0} \to D K^{+} π^{-}$ decays, with $D \to K^{+} π^{-}$ , $K^{+} K^{-}$ and $π^{+} π^{-}$ . The analysi…

A model-independent confirmation of the $Z (4430)^{-}$ state

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, B. Adeva +723

The decay $B^{0} \to ψ (2 S) K^{+} π^{-}$ is analyzed using $3 f b^{- 1}$ of $pp$ collision data collected with the LHCb detector. A model-independent description of the $ψ (2 S) π$ mass spe…

First observation of a baryonic $B_{c}^{+}$ decay

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, B. Adeva +699

A baryonic decay of the $B_{c}^{+}$ meson, $B_{c}^{+} \to J / ψ p p π^{+}$ , is observed for the first time, with a significance of $7.3$ standard deviations, in $pp$ collision data coll…

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…

Observation of the resonant character of the $Z (4430)^{-}$ state

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

Resonant structures in $B^{0} \to ψ^{'} π^{-} K^{+}$ decays are analyzed by performing a four-dimensional fit of the decay amplitude, using $pp$ collision data corresponding to $3f b^{- 1}$ …

Search for Majorana neutrinos in $B^{-} \to π^{+} μ^{-} μ^{-}$ decays

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, B. Adeva +674

A search for heavy Majorana neutrinos produced in the $B^{-} \to π^{+} μ^{-} μ^{-}$ decay mode is performed using 3 fb $^{- 1}$ of integrated luminosity collected with the LHCb detector in $pp…
