    Measurement of prompt D+D^+ and Ds+D^+_{s} production in pPbp\mathrm{Pb} collisions at sNN=5.02 \sqrt {s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=5.02\,TeV

    No full text
    International audienceThe production of prompt D+D^+ and Ds+D^+_{s} mesons is studied in proton-lead collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sNN=5.02 \sqrt {s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=5.02\,TeV. The data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of (1.58±0.02)nb−1(1.58\pm0.02)\mathrm{nb}^{-1} is collected by the LHCb experiment at the LHC. The differential production cross-sections are measured using D+D^+ and Ds+D^+_{s} candidates with transverse momentum in the range of 0<pT<14 GeV/c0<p_{\mathrm{T}} <14\,\mathrm{GeV}/c and rapidities in the ranges of 1.5<y∗<4.01.5<y^*<4.0 and −5.0<y∗<−2.5-5.0<y^*<-2.5 in the nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass system. For both particles, the nuclear modification factor and the forward-backward production ratio are determined. These results are compared with theoretical models that include initial-state nuclear effects. In addition, measurements of the cross-section ratios between D+D^+, Ds+D^+_{s} and D0D^0 mesons are presented, providing a baseline for studying the charm hadronization in lead-lead collisions at LHC energies

    Precision measurement of CP\it{CP} violation in the penguin-mediated decay Bs0→ϕϕB_s^{0}\rightarrow\phi\phi

    No full text
    International audienceA flavor-tagged time-dependent angular analysis of the decay Bs0→ϕϕB_s^{0}\rightarrow\phi\phi is performed using pppp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at s=13\sqrt{s}=13 TeV, the center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6 fb^{-1}. The CP\it{CP}-violating phase and direct CP\it{CP}-violation parameter are measured to be ϕssˉs=−0.042±0.075±0.009\phi_{s\bar{s}s} = -0.042 \pm 0.075 \pm 0.009 rad and ∣λ∣=1.004±0.030±0.009|\lambda|=1.004\pm 0.030 \pm 0.009 , respectively, assuming the same values for all polarization states of the ϕϕ\phi\phi system. In these results, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. These parameters are also determined separately for each polarization state, showing no evidence for polarization dependence. The results are combined with previous LHCb measurements using pppp collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, yielding ϕssˉs=−0.074±0.069\phi_{s\bar{s}s} = -0.074 \pm 0.069 rad and ∣λ∣=1.009±0.030|\lambda|=1.009 \pm 0.030. This is the most precise study of time-dependent CP\it{CP} violation in a penguin-dominated BB meson decay. The results are consistent with CP\it{CP} symmetry and with the Standard Model predictions

    Search for CPCP violation in the phase space of D0→π−π+π0D^0 \to \pi^-\pi^+\pi^0 decays with the energy test

    No full text
    International audienceA search for CPCP violation in D0→π−π+π0D^0 \to \pi^-\pi^+\pi^0 decays is reported, using pppp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment from 2015 to 2018 corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6fb−1fb^{-1}. An unbinned model-independent approach provides sensitivity to local CPCP violation within the two-dimensional phase space of the decay. The method is validated using the Cabibbo-favoured channel \D^0 \to \K^-\pi^+\pi^0 and background regions of the signal mode. The results are consistent with CPCP symmetry in this decay

    Observation of new baryons in the Ξb−π+π−\Xi_b^-\pi^+\pi^- and Ξb0π+π−\Xi_b^0\pi^+\pi^- systems

    International audienceThe first observation and study of two new baryonic structures in the final state Ξb0π+π−\Xi_b^0\pi^+\pi^- and the confirmation of the Ξb(6100)−\Xi_b(6100)^- state in the Ξb−π+π−\Xi_b^-\pi^+\pi^- decay mode are reported using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9fb−1\mathrm{fb}^{-1}. In addition, the properties of the known Ξb∗0\Xi_b^{*0}, Ξbâ€Č−\Xi_b^{'-} and Ξb∗−\Xi_b^{*-} resonances are measured with improved precision. The new decay mode of the Ξb0\Xi_b^0 baryon to the Ξc+π−π+π−\Xi_c^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^- final state is observed and exploited for the first time in these measurements

    Study of the Bose-Einstein correlations of same-sign pions in proton-lead collisions

    No full text
    International audienceCorrelations of same-sign charged particles are analysed using proton-lead collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.06 nb-1. Bose-Einstein correlations are observed in the form of an enhancement of pair production for same-sign charged pions with a small four-momentum difference squared. The dependence of the correlation radius and the intercept parameter on the reconstructed charged-particle multiplicity is investigated. The measured correlation radii scale linearly with the cube root of the reconstructed charged-particle multiplicity, being compatible with predictions of hydrodynamic models on the collision system evolution
