Observation of the decay Λb0 → χc1pπ−
The Cabibbo-suppressed decay Λ 0 b → χc1pπ − is observed for the first time using data from proton-proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6 fb−1 , collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Evidence for the Λ 0 b → χc2pπ − decay is also found. Usin...

| Sumario: | The Cabibbo-suppressed decay Λ 0 b → χc1pπ − is observed for the first time using data from proton-proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6 fb−1 , collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Evidence for the Λ 0 b → χc2pπ − decay is also found. Using the Λ 0 b → χc1pK− decay as normalisation channel, the ratios of branching fractions are measured to be B Λ 0 b → χc1pπ − B Λ0 b → χc1pK− = (6.59 ± 1.01 ± 0.22) × 10−2 , B Λ 0 b → χc2pπ − B Λ0 b → χc1pπ− = 0.95 ± 0.30 ± 0.04 ± 0.04 , B Λ 0 b → χc2pK− B Λ0 b → χc1pK− = 1.06 ± 0.05 ± 0.04 ± 0.04 , where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic and the third is due to the uncertainties in the branching fractions of χc1,2 → J/ψγ decays.
