Precision measurement of D meson mass differences
No full textUsing three- and four-body decays of D mesons produced in semileptonic b-hadron decays, precision measurements of D meson mass differences are made together with a measurement of the D 0 mass. The measurements are based on a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 collected in pp collisions at 7 TeV. Using the decay D 0 → K + K − K − π +, the D 0 mass is measured to be M(D0)=1864.75±0.15(stat)±0.11(syst)MeV/c2.
The mass differences
M(D+)−M(D0)=4.76±0.12(stat)±0.07(syst)MeV/c2,M(Ds)−M(D+)=98.68±0.03(stat)±0.04(syst)MeV/c2
are measured using the D 0 → K + K − π + π − and D+(s)→K+K−π+ mode
Study of DsJ decays to D+KS0 and D0K+ final states in pp collisions
No full textA study of D+K0S and D0K+ final states is performed in a sample of 1.0 fb−1 of pp collision data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of s√=7 TeV with the LHCb detector. We confirm the existence of the D∗s1(2700)+ and D∗sJ(2860)+ excited states and measure their masses and widths to be
m(D∗s1(2700)+) = 2709.2±1.9(stat)±4.5(syst) MeV/c2, Γ(D∗s1(2700)+) = 115.8±7.3(stat)±12.1(syst) MeV/c2, m(D∗sJ(2860)+) = 2866.1±1.0(stat)±6.3(syst) MeV/c2, Γ(D∗sJ(2860)+) = 69.9±3.2(stat)±6.6(syst) MeV/c2
Search for the decay Bs0→D*∓π±
No full textA search for the decay Bs0→D*∓π± is presented using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb-1 of pp collisions collected by LHCb. This decay is expected to be mediated by a W-exchange diagram, with little contribution from rescattering processes, and therefore a measurement of the branching fraction will help us to understand the mechanism behind related decays such as Bs0→π+π- and Bs0→DD̅ . Systematic uncertainties are minimized by using B0→D*∓π± as a normalization channel. We find no evidence for a signal, and set an upper limit on the branching fraction of B(Bs0→D*∓π±)<6.1(7.8)×10-6 at 90% (95%) confidence level

Measurements of the branching fractions of the decays B0s→D∓sK± and B0s→D−sπ+
No full textThe decay mode B0s→D∓sK± allows for one of the theoretically cleanest measurements of the CKM angle γ through the study of time-dependent CP violation. This paper reports a measurement of its branching fraction relative to the Cabibbo-favoured mode B0s→D−sπ+ based on a data sample corresponding to 0.37 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at s√=7TeV collected in 2011 with the LHCb detector. In addition, the ratio of B meson production fractions f s /f d , determined from semileptonic decays, together with the known branching fraction of the control channel B 0 → D −π+, is used to perform an absolute measurement of the branching fractions: B(B0s→D−sπ+)=(2.95±0.05±0.17+0.18−0.22)×10−3,\hfillB(B0s→D∓sK±)=(1.90±0.12±0.13+0.12−0.14)×10−4,\hfill where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second the experimental systematic uncertainty, and the third the uncertainty due to f s /f d

Evidence for the decay B0→J/ψω and measurement of the relative branching fractions of meson decays to J/ψη and J/ψη′
No full textFirst evidence of the B 0 → J / ψ ω decay is found and the B s 0 → J / ψ η and B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ decays are studied using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb -1 collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The branching fractions of these decays are measured relative to that of the B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0 decay:frac(B (B 0 → J / ψ ω), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 0.89 ± 0.19 (stat) - 0.13 + 0.07 (syst),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 14.0 ± 1.2 (stat) - 1.5 + 1.1 (syst) - 1.0 + 1.1 (frac(f d, f s)),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 12.7 ± 1.1 (stat) - 1.3 + 0.5 (syst) - 0.9 + 1.0 (frac(f d, f s)), where the last uncertainty is due to the knowledge of f d / f s, the ratio of b-quark hadronization factors that accounts for the different production rate of B 0 and B s 0 mesons. The ratio of the branching fractions of B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ and B s 0 → J / ψ η decays is measured to befrac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B s 0 → J / ψ η)) = 0.90 ± 0.09 (stat) - 0.02 + 0.06 (syst)
