Measurement of the [lambda]0b → J/[psi][lambda] angular distribution and the [lambda]0b polarisation in pp collisions

This paper presents an analysis of the $ {\Lambda}_b^0 $→ J/ψΛ angular distribution and the transverse production polarisation of $ {\Lambda}_b^0 $ baryons in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV. The measurements are performed using data corresponding to an integra...

Description
Summary:This paper presents an analysis of the $ {\Lambda}_b^0 $→ J/ψΛ angular distribution and the transverse production polarisation of $ {\Lambda}_b^0 $ baryons in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV. The measurements are performed using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.9 fb$^{−1}$, collected with the LHCb experiment. The polarisation is determined in a fiducial region of $ {\Lambda}_b^0 $ transverse momentum and pseudorapidity of 1 < p$_{T}$< 20 GeV/c and 2 < η < 5, respectively. The data are consistent with $ {\Lambda}_b^0 $ baryons being produced unpolarised in this region. The parity-violating asymmetry parameter of the Λ → pπ$^{−}$ decay is also determined from the data and its value is found to be consistent with a recent measurement by the BES III collaboration.[graphic not available: see fulltext] This paper presents an analysis of the $\Lambda^0_b\rightarrow J/\psi\Lambda$ angular distribution and the transverse production polarisation of $\Lambda^0_b$ baryons in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV.
