Measurement of ψ (2S) polarisation in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
The polarisation of prompt ψ (2S) mesons is measured by performing an angular analysis of ψ (2S)→μ+μ− decays using proton-proton collision data, corre-sponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1, collected by the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The polarisation is measured in...

| Summary: | The polarisation of prompt ψ (2S) mesons is measured by performing an angular analysis of ψ (2S)→μ+μ− decays using proton-proton collision data, corre-sponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1, collected by the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The polarisation is measured in bins of transverse momentum pT and rapidity y in the kinematic region 3.5<pT<15 GeV/c and 2.0<y<4.5, and is compared to theoretical models. No significant polarisation is observed. |
