Study of Λ0b and Ξ0b decays to Λh+h′− and evidence for CP violation in Λ0b →ΛK+K− decays
A study of Λ0𝑏 and Ξ0𝑏 decays to Λℎ+ℎ′− (ℎ(′)=𝜋,𝐾) is performed using 𝑝𝑝 collision data collected by the LHCb experiment during LHC Runs 1-2, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1. The branching fractions for these decays are measured using the Λ0𝑏→Λ+𝑐(→Λ𝜋+)𝜋− decay as a control...

| Summary: | A study of Λ0𝑏 and Ξ0𝑏 decays to Λℎ+ℎ′− (ℎ(′)=𝜋,𝐾) is performed using 𝑝𝑝 collision data collected by the LHCb experiment during LHC Runs 1-2, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1. The branching fractions for these decays are measured using the Λ0𝑏→Λ+𝑐(→Λ𝜋+)𝜋− decay as a control channel. The decays Λ0𝑏 →Λ𝜋+𝜋− and Ξ0𝑏 →Λ𝐾−𝜋+ are observed for the first time. For decay modes with sufficient signal yields, 𝐶𝑃 asymmetries are measured in the full and localized regions of the final-state phase space. Evidence is found for 𝐶𝑃 violation in the Λ0𝑏 →Λ𝐾+𝐾− decay, interpreted as originating primarily from an asymmetric Λ0𝑏 →𝑁*+𝐾− decay amplitude. The measured 𝐶𝑃 asymmetries for other decays are compatible with zero. |
