Differential branching fraction and angular analysis of Λ {/b 0} → Λμ + μ - decays

The differential branching fraction of the rare decay Λ 0 b → Λµ+µ − is measured as a function of q 2 , the square of the dimuon invariant mass. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb−1 , collected by the LHCb experiment. Evi...
