  5. Physics Aims of LHCb “dedicated to heavy flavour physics at the LHC” • New PhysicsCP violation: precision measurements of CKM anglesrare decay of beauty and charm hadrons • Heavy Flavour PhysicsB productionBc , b-baryon physicscharm decays (e.g. D-mixing)tau lepton flavour violation......

  6. bb production at LHC • bb pair production correlated • σbb ~ 300-500 µb (@7-14 TeV) • 15<<300 mrad, unique acceptance • Luminosity limits to ~21032 cm-2s-1 • Maximize probability of a single interaction per crossing • 2fb-1 per nominal year(107s), ~1012bb pairs pear year 

  7. LHCbDetector μ+ beam 2 beam 1 μ- b hadron Muon System (M1-M5) μ-id: e(mm) ~94(97) %, mis-id: e (pm) ~ 3(2) % Silicon strip detector σx/y ~ 10(15.5) μm σz ~ 60(91) μm σIP ~ 21(25) μm @2GeV/c Tracking System (TT,T1-T3) Efficiency ~ 95(94.3)% Ghost ~ 5(7.7)% Δp/p~ 0.5(0.55)%(long tracks) *long tracks: tracks passing trough VELO,TT,T1-T3

  8. LHCb Data Taking to be updated to be updated • Stable data taking with high efficiency in all systems, • globallyincreasing with time.

  9. Detectors’ Efficiency • Extremely high efficiency for all subdetectors

  10. Physics Interests on Charm 1) J/ cross-section (and polarization) • Production mechanism still not well understood, theoretical interests on direct J/ • Three main sources of J/1) Direct J/2) Decay from heavier charmonium3) Decay from b-hadrons • fractions of heavier charmonia are helpful 2) Essentially related to many investigations of CP violation and rare decay 3) Understanding of charm is fundamental for later analysis Prompt J/ J/from b

  11. Measurement of J/ cross section • Cross section(both prompt J/ and J/ from b) • Separate “prompt J/” from “J/ from b” by fitting pseudo-proper time tz • σ( incl. J/) • σ( J/ from b)

  12. Measurement of J/ cross section • good approximation of average b lifetime • well described by exponential distribution

  13. Event Selection of J/ Data Sample • (14.15 ± 1.42) nb-1 (low pile-up conditions) Event selection • 2 muons • with fully reconstructed tracks (VELO + Tracker) • identified bymuon system • good vertex reconstructed • pT > 700 MeV/c • Mass window for signal definition: (MJ/ψ± 390) MeV/c2 • Trigger L0 • single muon, pT > 480 MeV/c • HLT: • single muon, pT > 1.3 GeV/c .OR. muon pair with Mμμ > 2700 MeV/c2

  14. Mass fit Signal: Crystal Ball function Background: 1st order polynomial Fit results (2.5<y<4, pT<10 GeV/c): Signal = 2872 ± 73 S/B = 1.3 μ= (3088 ± 0.4) MeV/c2 σ = (15.0 ± 0.4) MeV/c2

  15. tz Fit Result χ2/ndof=1.6 1)Background from invariant mass sidebands 2)Crosscheck with a binned fit gives consistent results

  16. Efficiencies: ε = εacc x εrec x εtrig • 0<PT<10 GeV/c divided into 10 bins • integrate over 2.5<y<4 due to low statistics • plenty of cross check with data

  17. Total Efficiency and Polarization Effect • ε depends strongly on polarization • treated as systematic errors for first data With more statistics, a direct measurement of polarization with full angular analysis, in different reference frames and bins of y and pT, is foreseen.

  18. Preliminary Results Systematic errors mainly come from data/MC discrepancy. Dominant contributions from trigger and tracking efficiencies. Extrapolations with PYTHIA 6.4 (LEP hadronization fractions assumed)

  19. More Data • Much more data since ICHEP several 100k events/pb-1 • Will measure also polarization • Region of measurement (y, pT) will be extended with more data, some overlap to CMS/ATLAS

  20. Heavier Charmonia (2s)μ+μ- • ccJ/y(mm) g 1)Also seen hints of X(3872). 2)With more statistics, we will measure (c1+c2)/(J/) separately for prompt c and c from b, and measure cross section of (2S). DM = M (J/yg) - M(J/y) (2s)J/

  26. Open charm cross section • First measurement at √s=7 TeV. • Measure cross section vs y, pT in ~2 nb-1, with open trigger. • Good agreement with expectations! • Extrapolating to all pT and 4p can also • confirm the expectation on ratio at √s=7TeV • s(pp→ccX) ≈ 20 x s(pp→bbX) •  Good news for LHCb charm program

  27. Measurement of (D+)/(Ds+) Consistent with PDG: 3.080.70

  28. Summary and Perspectives • LHCb producing physics quality measurements • Cross sections of prompt J/ and J/ from b measured separately • Cross sections of D0,D*,D+,Ds are measured, good agreement with theor. expectations • Heavier charmoniawell reconstructed and waiting for more statistics • (bb) determined in forward region @ 7 TeV

  31. Measurement of σ(pp → bbX) Idea: using B→D0Xμν measure right-sign D0 μ- pairs using tracks not pointing at primary vertex, but which form a common vertex Example: only mode used • From PDG • b in B±/B0/Bs/b-baryon admixture →D0 l νX :BR = 6.82% ±0.35% • Br(D0 → K π) = (3.91 ± 0.01)% production fractions taken from Heavy Flavor Averaging Group (LEP) D0 mesons produced are not only produced in B-decays - but also “prompt”

  33. Measurement of σ(pp → bbX) σ( pp → Hb X, 2 < η(Hb) < 6) = 75.3 ± 5.4 ± 13 μb Extrapolation: total bb production cross section at √s = 7 TeV σ( pp → bbX) = 284 ± 20 ± 49 μb (assuming LEP frag. fractions)
