Abstract:

Decays of b hadrons into final states containing a D⁰ meson and a muon are used to measure the bb̄ production cross-section in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC. In the pseudorapidity interval 2<η<6 and integrated over all transverse momenta we find that the average cross-section to produce b-flavoured or b̄-flavoured hadrons is (75.3±5.4±13.0) μb. © 2010 CERN.

Abstract:

This paper reports the first measurement of the effective B →J/ψK lifetime and an updated measurement of its time-integrated branching fraction. Both measurements are performed with a data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb of pp collisions, recorded by the LHCb experiment in 2011 at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The results are: τ = 1.75±0.12 (stat)±0.07 (syst) ps and B(B →J/ψK ) = (1.97 ± 0.23) × 10. For the latter measurement, the uncertainty includes both statistical and systematic sources. © 2013 CERN.
