Determination of the sign of the decay width difference in the bs0 system

The interference between the K +K - S-wave and P-wave amplitudes in Bs0→J/ψK +K - decays with the K +K - pairs in the region around the (1020) resonance is used to determine the variation of the difference of the strong phase between these amplitudes as a function of K +K - invariant mass. Combined with the results from our CP asymmetry measurement in Bs0→J/ψ decays, we conclude that the Bs0 mass eigenstate that is almost CP=+1 is lighter and decays faster than the mass eigenstate that is almost CP=-1. This determines the sign of the decay width difference ΔΓ sΓ L-Γ H to be positive. Our result also resolves the ambiguity in the past measurements of the CP violating phase s to be close to zero rather than π. These conclusions are in agreement with the standard model expectations.

Two-point Green functions of free Dirac fermions in single-layer graphene ribbons with zigzag and armchair edges

Green function technique is a very efficient theoretical tool for the study of dynamical quantum processes in many-body systems. For the study of dynamical quantum processes in graphene ribbons it is necessary to know two-point Green functions of free Dirac fermions in these materials. The purpose of present work is to establish explicit expressions of two-point Green functions of free Dirac fermions in single-layer graphene ribbons with zigzag and armchair edges. By exactly solving the system of Dirac equations with appropriate boundary conditions on the edges of graphene ribbons we derive formulae determining wave functions of free Dirac fermions in above-mentioned materials. Then the quantum fields of free Dirac fermions are introduced, and explicit expressions of two-point Green functions of free Dirac fermions in single-layer graphene ribbons with zigzag and armchair edges are established.

Production of J/ψ and υ mesons in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV

The production of J/ψ and υ mesons in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector. The J/ψ and υ mesons are reconstructed in the μ + μ - decay mode and the signal yields are determined with a fit to the μ + μ - invariant mass distributions. The analysis is performed in the rapidity range 2. 0 < y < 4. 5 and transverse momentum range 0 < p T < 14 (15) GeV/c of the J/ψ (υ) mesons. The J/ψ and υ production cross-sections and the fraction of J/ψ mesons from b-hadron decays are measured as a function of the meson p T and y Title: Production of J/ψ and υ mesons in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV Authors:  R., Aaij B., Aveda M., Adinolfi Keywords:  Flavor physics Heavy quark production Hadron-Hadron Scattering Particle and resonance production Issue Date:  2013 Publisher:  Elsevier Abstract:  The production of J/ψ and υ mesons in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector.
