Observation of the Resonant Character of the Z(4430)(-) State
Resonant structures in B-0 -> psi'pi K--(+) decays are analyzed by performing a four-dimensional fit of the decay amplitude, using pp collision data corresponding to 3 fb(-1) collected with the LHCb detector. The data cannot be described with K+pi(-) resonances alone, which is confirmed with a model-independent approach. A highly significant Z(4430)(-) -> psi'pi(-) component is required, thus confirming the existence of this state. The observed evolution of the Z(4430)(-) amplitude with the psi'pi(-) mass establishes the resonant nature of this particle. The mass and width measurements are substantially improved. The spin parity is determined unambiguously to be 1(+)
Measurement of the CKM angle γ using<i> B</i><sup>±</sup> → <i>DK</i><sup>±</sup> with D → K <sub>S</sub> <sup>0</sup> π<sup>+</sup>π<sup>−</sup>, K <sub>S</sub> <sup>0</sup> K<sup>+</sup>K<sup>−</sup> decays
A binned Dalitz plot analysis of decays, with and , is used to perform a
measurement of the CP-violating observables and , which are
sensitive to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle . The analysis is
performed without assuming any decay model, through the use of information
on the strong-phase variation over the Dalitz plot from the CLEO collaboration.
Using a sample of proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb
experiment in 2015 and 2016, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of
2.0, the values of the CP violation parameters are found to
be , , , and . The first
uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is due to
the uncertainty on the strong-phase measurements. These values are used to
obtain \gamma = \left(87\,^{+11}_{-12}\right)^\circ, , and , where is the ratio
between the suppressed and favoured -decay amplitudes and is the
corresponding strong-interaction phase difference. This measurement is combined
with the result obtained using 2011 and 2012 data collected with the \lhcb
experiment, to give \gamma = \left(80\,^{+10}_{\,-9}\right)^\circ, , and .Comment: All figures and tables, along with any supplementary material and

Physics case for an LHCb Upgrade II - Opportunities in flavour physics, and beyond, in the HL-LHC era
The LHCb Upgrade II will fully exploit the flavour-physics opportunities of the HL-LHC, and study additional physics topics that take advantage of the forward acceptance of the LHCb spectrometer. The LHCb Upgrade I will begin operation in 2020. Consolidation will occur, and modest enhancements of the Upgrade I detector will be installed, in Long Shutdown 3 of the LHC (2025) and these are discussed here. The main Upgrade II detector will be installed in long shutdown 4 of the LHC (2030) and will build on the strengths of the current LHCb experiment and the Upgrade I. It will operate at a luminosity up to 2×1034
cm−2s−1, ten times that of the Upgrade I detector. New detector components will improve the intrinsic performance of the experiment in certain key areas. An Expression Of Interest proposing Upgrade II was submitted in February 2017. The physics case for the Upgrade II is presented here in more depth. CP-violating phases will be measured with precisions unattainable at any other envisaged facility. The experiment will probe b → sl+l−and b → dl+l− transitions in both muon and electron decays in modes not accessible at Upgrade I. Minimal flavour violation will be tested with a precision measurement of the ratio of B(B0 → μ+μ−)/B(Bs → μ+μ−). Probing charm CP violation at the 10−5 level may result in its long sought discovery. Major advances in hadron spectroscopy will be possible, which will be powerful probes of low energy QCD. Upgrade II potentially will have the highest sensitivity of all the LHC experiments on the Higgs to charm-quark couplings. Generically, the new physics mass scale probed, for fixed couplings, will almost double compared with the pre-HL-LHC era; this extended reach for flavour physics is similar to that which would be achieved by the HE-LHC proposal for the energy frontier
LHCb upgrade software and computing : technical design report
This document reports the Research and Development activities that are carried out in the software and computing domains in view of the upgrade of the LHCb experiment. The implementation of a full software trigger implies major changes in the core software framework, in the event data model, and in the reconstruction algorithms. The increase of the data volumes for both real and simulated datasets requires a corresponding scaling of the distributed computing infrastructure. An implementation plan in both domains is presented, together with a risk assessment analysis
Asymmetric synthesis of beta(2)-amino acids: 2-substituted-3-aminopropanoic acids from N-acryloyl SuperQuat derivatives
Conjugate addition of lithium dibenzylamide to (S)-N(3)-acryloyl-4-isopropyl-5,5-dimethyloxazolidin-2-one ( derived from L-valine) and alkylation of the resultant lithium beta-amino enolate provides, after deprotection, a range of (S)-2-alkyl-3-aminopropanoic acids in good yield and high ee. Alternatively, via a complementary pathway, conjugate addition of a range of secondary lithium amides to (S)-N(3)-(2'-alkylacryloyl)-4-isopropyl-5,5-dimethyloxazolidin-2-ones, diastereoselective protonation with 2-pyridone, and subsequent deprotection furnishes a range of (R)-2-alkyl- and (R)-2-aryl-3-aminopropanoic acids in good yield and high ee. Additionally, the boron-mediated aldol reaction of beta-amino N-acyl oxazolidinones is a highly diastereoselective method for the synthesis of a range of beta-amino-beta'-hydroxy N-acyl oxazolidinones.</p
