Results on $B \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ decays with the CMS experiment are reported, using 61 fb$^{-1}$ of data recorded during LHC Run 1 and 2016. With an improved muon identification algorithm and refined unbinned maximum likelihood fitting…

We report the first direct observation of the strange b baryon Xi_b^{-}. We reconstruct the decay Xi_b^{-} to J/psi Xi^{-}, with J/psi to dimuons and Xi^{-} to Lambda pion, in ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV. Using 1.3 fb^{-1} of…

We report the first observation of the decay \bar{B0} -> D_s^+ Lambda \bar{p} with a statistical significance of 6.6 sigma. We measure Br(\bar{B0} -> Ds+ Lambda \bar{p}) = (2.9 \pm 0.7\pm 0.5 \pm 0.4)* 10^{-5}, where the first error is…

We consider the $B^0_s \to \mu^{+} \mu^{-} \gamma$ effective lifetime, and the related CP-phase sensitive quantity $A_{\Delta\Gamma_s}^{\mu \mu \gamma}$, as a way to obtain qualitatively new insights on the current $B$-decay discrepancies.…

I discuss the heavy quark expansion for the inclusive widths of heavy-light hadrons, which predicts quite well the experimental ratios of B_q meson lifetimes. As for $\Lambda_b$, current determinations of ${\cal O}(m_b^{-3})$ contribution…

We report on mass and mean life measurements of several ground state $b-$baryons, using 9.6 $\textrm{fb}^{-1}$ of data from $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV, and recorded with the Collider Detector at Fermilab. Data collected…

The normalised decay rate of $B^+ \to J/\psi(\to \mu^+\mu^-) K^+$ is measured as a function of the lepton helicity angle using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.1 \text{fb}^{-1}$ collected during October 2024…

We discuss the problem of the large discrepancy between the observed lifetime ratio of $\Lambda_b$ to $B_d$ and the theoretical prediction obtained by the heavy quark effective theory. A new possibility of solving this problem is proposed…

We present preliminary measurements of branching fractions for the semileptonic decays B --> D tau nubar and B --> D* tau nubar, which are potentially sensitive to non--Standard Model amplitudes. The data sample comprises 232x10^6…

Lifetime differences of heavy hadrons can be consistently computed in heavy-quark expansion. The leading effects appear through spectator interactions at order 1/m_b^3. We compute a well-defined subset of 1/m_b^4 corrections to the lifetime…

The decay $B_c^+ \to \psi(2S)\pi^+$ with $\psi(2S) \to \mu^+\mu^-$ is observed with a significance of $5.2\,\sigma$ using $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0\,\invfb$ collected by the LHCb experiment. The…

We have performed a search for CPT violation in neutral charm meson oscillations using data from the FOCUS Experiment. While flavor mixing in the charm sector is predicted to be small by the Standard Model, it is still possible to…

The decays $ \Lambda_b^0 \to \psi(2S)pK^-$ and $ \Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi \pi^+ \pi^- pK^-$ are observed in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3fb$^{-1}$, collected in proton-proton collisions at 7 and 8TeV…

Measurements are presented of the B$^0_\mathrm{S}$ $\to$ $\mu^+\mu^-$ branching fraction and effective lifetime, as well as results of a search for the B$^0$ $\to$ $\mu^+\mu^-$ decay in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV at the…

We report a measurement of the average $B$-hadron lifetime using data collected with the SLD detector at the SLC in 1993. An inclusive analysis selected three-dimensional vertices with $B$-hadron lifetime information in a sample of 50k…

The Cabibbo-suppressed decay $\Lambda^0_b\rightarrow\psi(2S)p\pi^-$ is observed for the first time using a data sample collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions corresponding to 1.0, 2.0 and 1.9fb$^{-1}$ of integrated…

The form factor of Lambda_b^0 baryons is estimated using 3.46 10^6 hadronic Z decays collected by the DELPHI experiment between 1992 and 1995. Charmed Lambda_c^+ baryons fully reconstructed in the pK-pi+, pK0_S, and Lambda pi+pi+pi- modes,…

Differential rates in the decay B^0_s --> Jpsi phi, with phi --> K^+K^- and Jpsi --> mu^+ mu^- are sensitive to the CP-violation phase beta_s, predicted to be very small in the standard model. The analysis of B^0_s --> Jpsi phi decays is…

A measurement of the K_S lifetime is presented using data recorded by the NA48 experiment at the CERN-SPS during 1998 and 1999. The K_S lifetime is derived from the ratio of decay time distributions in simultaneous, collinear K_S and K_L…
