Measurement of forward W and Z boson production in association with jets in proton-proton collisions at √s=8 TeV
(Springer, 2016)
The production of W and Z bosons in association with jets is studied in the forward region of proton-proton collisions collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated ...
Measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry in Z/γ∗ → μ + μ − decays and determination of the effective weak mixing angle
(Springer, 2015)
The forward-backward charge asymmetry for the process qq→Z/γ∗→μ+μ− is measured as a function of the invariant mass of the dimuon system. Measurements are performed using proton proton collision data collected with the LHCb ...
Measurement of D ±s production asymmetry in pp collisions at √s=7 and 8 TeV
(Springer, 2018)
The inclusive D ±s production asymmetry is measured in pp collisions collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of √s=7 and 8 TeV. Promptly produced D ±s mesons are used, which decay as D ±s → ϕπ±, with ...
Central exclusive production of J/ψ and ψ(2S) mesons in pp collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Springer, 2018)
Measurements are reported of the central exclusive production of J/ψ and ψ(2S) mesons in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Backgrounds are significantly reduced compared to previous measurements made at ...
Measurement of forward Z → e+e− production s√s=8 TeV
(Springer, 2015)
A measurement of the cross-section for Z-boson production in the forward region of pp collisions at 8 TeV centre-of-mass energy is presented. The measurement is based on a sample of Z → e+e− decays reconstructed using the ...
Measurement of the forward W boson cross-section in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV
(Springer, 2014)
A measurement of the inclusive W → μν production cross-section using data from pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s=7 TeV is presented. The analysis is based on an integrated luminosity of about 1.0 fb−1 recorded ...
Measurement of the exclusive Υ production cross-section in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV and 8 TeV
(Springer, 2015)
A study is presented of central exclusive production of Υ(nS) states, where the Υ(nS) resonances decay to the μ + μ − final state, using pp collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment. The cross-section is measured in ...
Measurements of prompt charm production cross-sections in pp collisions at √s=5 TeV
(Springer, 2017)
Production cross-sections of prompt charm mesons are measured using data from pp collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 5 TeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 8.60 ± 0.33 pb−1 collected ...
Measurement of the forward Z boson production cross-section in pp collisions at √s =7 TeV
(Springer, 2015)
A measurement of the production cross-section for Z bosons that decay to muons is presented. The data were recorded by the LHCb detector during pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, and correspond to an ...
Study of bb¯correlations in high energy proton-proton collisions
(Springer, 2017)
Kinematic correlations for pairs of beauty hadrons, produced in high energy proton-proton collisions, are studied. The data sample used was collected with the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV and ...
