    The objectives of the study were: 1. To describe to what extent the Clinical Enrichment Rotation facilitated the perceived ease of transition from the role of the student to the role of Registered Nurse. 2. To determine to what extent the Clinical Enrichment Rotation affected the graduate\u27s perceived ability to perform selected nursing functions indicative of the role of a Registered Nurse. 3. To determine to what extent students perceived the objectives of the Clinical Enrichment Rotation in an associate degree program were accomplished. The above objectives reflect the order in which each objective will be analyzed

    The first observation of the Bc+→J/ψπ+π0B_c^+ \to J/\psi \pi^+ \pi^0 decay is reported with high significance using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1^{-1}, collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV. The ratio of its branching fraction relative to the Bc+→J/ψπ+B_c^+ \to J/\psi \pi^+ channel is measured to be B(Bc+→J/ψπ+π0)B(Bc+→J/ψπ+)=2.80±0.15±0.11±0.16 , \frac{ {\cal{B}}_{( B_c^+ \to J/\psi \pi^+\pi^0 ) }} { {\cal{B}}_{( B_c^+ \to J/\psi \pi^+ ) }} = 2.80 \pm 0.15 \pm 0.11 \pm 0.16 \,, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third related to imprecise knowledge of the branching fractions for B+→J/ψK∗+B^+ \to J/\psi K^{*+} and B+→J/ψK+B^+ \to J/\psi K^+ decays, which are used to determine the π0\pi^0 detection efficiency.

    International audienceA study of Bc+→χcπ+B_c^+ \rightarrow \chi_c \pi^+ decays is reported using proton-proton collision data, collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9fb−1^{-1}. The decay Bc+→χc2π+B_c^+ \rightarrow \chi_{c2} \pi^+ is observed for the first time, with a significance exceeding seven standard deviations. The relative branching fraction with respect to the Bc+→J/ψπ+B_c^+ \rightarrow J/\psi \pi^+ decay is measured to be BBc+→χc2π+BBc+→J/ψπ+=0.37±0.06±0.02±0.01, \frac{\mathcal{B}_{B_c^+ \rightarrow \chi_{c2} \pi^+}} {\mathcal{B}_{B_c^+ \rightarrow J/\psi \pi^+}} = 0.37 \pm 0.06 \pm 0.02 \pm 0.01 , where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is due to the knowledge of the χc→J/ÏˆÎł\chi_c \rightarrow J/\psi \gamma branching fraction. No significant Bc+→χc1π+B_c^+ \rightarrow \chi_{c1} \pi^+ signal is observed and an upper limit for the relative branching fraction for the Bc+→χc1π+B_c^+ \rightarrow \chi_{c1} \pi^+ and Bc+→χc2π+B_c^+ \rightarrow \chi_{c2} \pi^+ decays of BBc+→χc1π+BBc+→χc2π+<0.49 \frac{\mathcal{B}_{B_c^+ \rightarrow \chi_{c1} \pi^+}} {\mathcal{B}_{B_c^+ \rightarrow \chi_{c2} \pi^+}} < 0.49 is set at the 90% confidence level
