Angular moments of the decay [lambda] 0b→[lambda] [mu] + [mu] − at low hadronic recoil
An analysis of the angular distribution of the decay Λ b 0 → Λμ+μ− is presented, using data collected with the LHCb detector between 2011 and 2016 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 5 fb−1. Angular observables are determined using a moment analysis of the angular distribu...

| Summary: | An analysis of the angular distribution of the decay Λ b 0 → Λμ+μ− is presented, using data collected with the LHCb detector between 2011 and 2016 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 5 fb−1. Angular observables are determined using a moment analysis of the angular distribution at low hadronic recoil, corresponding to the dimuon invariant mass squared range 15 < q2 < 20 GeV2/c4. The full basis of observables is measured for the first time. The lepton-side, hadron-side and combined forward-backward asymmetries of the decay are determined to be AℓFB=−0.39±0.04(stat)±0.01(syst),AhFB=−0.30±0.05(stat)±0.02(syst),AℓhFB=+0.25±0.04(stat)±0.01(syst).AFBℓ=−0.39±0.04(stat)±0.01(syst),AFBh=−0.30±0.05(stat)±0.02(syst),AFBℓh=+0.25±0.04(stat)±0.01(syst). \begin{array}{l}{A}_{\mathrm{FB}}^{\ell }=-0.39\pm 0.04\left(\mathrm{stat}\right)\pm 0.01\left(\mathrm{syst}\right),\hfill \\ {}{A}_{\mathrm{FB}}^h=-0.30\pm 0.05\left(\mathrm{stat}\right)\pm 0.02\left(\mathrm{syst}\right),\hfill \\ {}{A}_{\mathrm{FB}}^{\ell h}=+0.25\pm 0.04\left(\mathrm{stat}\right)\pm 0.01\left(\mathrm{syst}\right).\hfill \end{array} The measurements are consistent with Standard Model predictions.
