Study of the kinematic dependences of Λ 0b production in pp collisions and a measurement of the Λ 0b → Λ +c π − branching fraction

The kinematic dependences of the relative production rates, fΛ0b/fd, of Λ 0b baryons and B 0 mesons are measured using Λ 0b → Λ +c π − and B¯¯¯¯0 →D+π− decays. The measurements use proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1 fb−1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV,...

description The kinematic dependences of the relative production rates, fΛ0b/fd, of Λ 0b baryons and B 0 mesons are measured using Λ 0b → Λ +c π − and B¯¯¯¯0 →D+π− decays. The measurements use proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1 fb−1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, recorded in the forward region with the LHCb experiment. The relative production rates are observed to depend on the transverse momentum, p T, and pseudorapidity, η, of the beauty hadron, in the studied kinematic region 1.5 < p T < 40 GeV/c and 2 < η < 5. Using a previous LHCb measurement of fΛ0b/fd in semileptonic decays, the branching fraction ℬ(Λ 0b → Λ +c π −) = (4.30 ± 0.03 + 0.12− 0.11 ± 0.26 ± 0.21) × 10− 3 is obtained, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, the third is from the previous LHCb measurement of fΛ0b/fd and the fourth is due to the b B¯¯¯¯0 →D+π− branching fraction. This is the most precise measurement of a Λ 0b branching fraction to date.
