Study of Λ0b and Ξ0b decays to Λ⁢h+⁡h′− and evidence for CP violation in Λ0b →Λ⁢K+⁢K− decays

A study of Λ0𝑏 and Ξ0𝑏 decays to Λ⁢ℎ+⁡ℎ′− (ℎ(′)=𝜋,𝐾) is performed using 𝑝⁢𝑝 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⁡(→Λ⁡𝜋+)⁢𝜋− decay as a control...

Description
Summary:A study of Λ0𝑏 and Ξ0𝑏 decays to Λ⁢ℎ+⁡ℎ′− (ℎ(′)=𝜋,𝐾) is performed using 𝑝⁢𝑝 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⁡(→Λ⁡𝜋+)⁢𝜋− decay as a control channel. The decays Λ0𝑏 →Λ⁢𝜋+⁢𝜋− and Ξ0𝑏 →Λ⁢𝐾−⁢𝜋+ are observed for the first time. For decay modes with sufficient signal yields, 𝐶⁢𝑃 asymmetries are measured in the full and localized regions of the final-state phase space. Evidence is found for 𝐶⁢𝑃 violation in the Λ0𝑏 →Λ⁢𝐾+⁢𝐾− decay, interpreted as originating primarily from an asymmetric Λ0𝑏 →𝑁*+⁢𝐾− decay amplitude. The measured 𝐶⁢𝑃 asymmetries for other decays are compatible with zero.
