Abstract:

A blind analysis searching for the decay Bs 0→μ+μ- has been performed using proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. With an integrated luminosity of 2.4 fb-1 no excess of events over the background expectation is found and an upper limit is set on the branching fraction BR(Bs 0→μ+μ-)<2.2(1.9)×10-8 at 95% (90%) confidence level. © 2012 CERN.

Abstract:

We report a set of measurements of inclusive invariant p T differential cross sections of Λ0, Λ ̄0, Ξ ±, and Ω ± hyperons reconstructed in the central region with pseudorapidity |η|<1 and p T up to 10GeV/c. Events are collected with a minimum-bias trigger in pp̄ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV using the CDF II detector at the Tevatron Collider. As p T increases, the slopes of the differential cross sections of the three particles are similar, which could indicate a universality of the particle production in p T. The invariant differential cross sections are also presented for different charged-particle multiplicity intervals. © 2012 American Physical Society.
