Observation of D0 D0 Oscillations
- R. Aaij et al.*
(LHCb Collaboration)
(Received 6 November 2012; published 5 March 2013) We report a measurement of the time-dependent ratio of D0 ! Kþ to D0 ! Kþ decay rates in Dþ-tagged events using 1:0 fb1 of integrated luminosity recorded by the LHCb experiment. We measure the mixing parameters x02 ¼ ð0:9 1:3Þ 104, y0 ¼ ð7:2 2:4Þ 103, and the ratio of doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed to Cabibbo-favored decay rates RD ¼ ð3:52 0:15Þ 103, where the uncertainties include statistical and systematic sources. The result excludes the no-mixing hypothesis with a probability corresponding to 9.1 standard deviations and represents the first observation of D0 D0
- scillations from a single measurement.

Measurements of prompt charm production cross-sections in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV
The LHCb collaboration†
Abstract Production cross-sections of prompt charm mesons are measured with the first data from pp collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.98 ± 0.19 pb−1 collected by the LHCb
- experiment. The production cross-sections of D0, D+, D+
s , and D∗+ mesons are
measured in bins of charm meson transverse momentum, pT, and rapidity, y, and cover the range 0 < pT < 15 GeV /c and 2.0 < y < 4.5. The ratios of the integrated
cross-sections between charm mesons agree with previously measured fragmentation
- fractions. The inclusive cc cross-section within the range of 0 < pT < 8 GeV
/c is found to be σ(pp → ccX) = 2940 ± 3 ± 180 ± 160 µb, where the uncertainties are due to statistical, systematic and fragmentation fraction uncertainties, respectively.

At these energies, the dominant background to the astrophysical signal is the flux of ‘prompt’ neutrinos, arising from the decay of charmed mesons produced by cosmic ray collisions in the atmosphere. In this work we provide predictions for the prompt atmospheric neutrino flux in the framework of perturbative QCD, using state-of-the-art Monte Carlo event generators. Our calculation includes the constraints set by charm production measurements from the LHCb experiment at 7 TeV, recently validated with the corresponding 13 TeV data. Our result for the prompt flux is a factor of about 2 below the previous benchmark calculation, in general agreement with
- ther recent estimates, but with an improved estimate of the uncertainty. This alleviates
the existing tension between the theoretical prediction and IceCube limits, and suggests that a direct direction of the prompt flux is imminent.

Abstract: The production of J/ψ mesons in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 13 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector. Cross-section measurements are performed as a function of the transverse momentum pT and the rapidity y of the J/ψ meson in the region pT < 14 GeV/c and 2.0 < y < 4.5, for both prompt J/ψ mesons and J/ψ mesons from b-hadron decays. The production cross-sections integrated over the kinematic coverage are 15.30 ± 0.03 ± 0.86 µb for prompt J/ψ and 2.34 ± 0.01 ± 0.13 µb for J/ψ from b-hadron decays, assuming zero polarization of the J/ψ meson. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The cross-section reported for J/ψ mesons from b-hadron decays is used to extrapolate to a total b¯ b cross-section. The ratios

- Uses a dedicated “Bonzai”
Boosted Decision Tree [JINST 8 (2013) P02013 ] with
- PT, IP𝝍2, FD𝝍2, minv, mcorr
- Capable of filling its allotted

- Same principle as Run 1 :
preselect displaced tracks with ∑ PT, followed by BBDT
- Timing: <0.1 ms (*)
- At 25-50 kHz output rate, large
efficiency gains over Run 1
- red: run 1 efficiency
- green: 2x run 1 efficiency

- VELO tracks, either matched to
muon hits, or with large IP are extended through the magnet
- PT dependent search windows:
