Escape rooms have gained significant popularity in recent years, offering a blend of puzzle-solving and treasure hunt-like challenges, making them an enjoyable activity for the participants team-building experience. More importantly, they provide unique engaging way to introduce new topics, which can be effectively leveraged science outreach. In 2021, team from INFN developed HEPScape, escape room centered on high-energy physics. Participants are immersed simulation Large Hadron Collider at...
It is well known that in b-hadron decays with a single unreconstructible final state particle, the decay kinematics can be solved up to quadratic ambiguity, without any knowledge of momentum. We present method infer momenta b-hadrons produced hadron collider experiments using information from their reconstructed flight vectors. Our strictly agnostic itself, which implies it validated control samples topologically similar fully reconstructible states. A multivariate regression algorithm based...
The performance of the ring-imaging Cherenkov detectors at LHCb experiment is determined during LHC Run 2 period between 2015 and 2018. stability angle resolution number detected photons with time running conditions measured. particle identification evaluated data found to satisfy requirements physics programme.
The LHCb experiment at CERN is undergoing an upgrade in preparation for the Run 3 data taking period of LHC. As part this trigger moving to a fully software implementation operating LHC bunch crossing rate. We present evaluation CPU-based and GPU-based first stage High Level Trigger. After detailed comparison both options are found be viable. This document summarizes performance details these options, outcome which has led choice as baseline.
This is a summary of the latest results in 𝐵 meson mixing and mixing-related CP violation presented at CKM 2021. We place these context both recent experimental measurements, theoretical developments future prospects field.
Lepton Flavour Universality (LFU) is enforced in the Standard Model by construction.Any violation of LFU would be a clear sign new physics.Existing hints non universality are already present.The semitauonic decays particular, sensitive to contributions from non-Standard-Model particles that preferentially couple third generation fermions, such as Higgs-like charged scalars.The LHCb experiment has measured branching fraction ratio R(D * ) ≡ B( B0 → D + τ -ντ )/B( µ -νµ using sample...
In the Standard Model electroweak coupling of gauge bosons to leptons is independent lepton flavour. Semileptonic and rare decays b quarks provide an ideal laboratory test this property. Any violation Lepton Flavour Universality would be a clear sign physics beyond Model. work review tests performed using data collected by LHCb experiment in 2011 2012 at centre mass energy 7 8 TeV presented.
Semileptonic b-hadron decays proceed via charged-current interactions and provide powerful probes for testing the Standard Model of particle physics searching New Physics effects. The advantages performing studies semileptonic include reliable predictions strong large branching fractions. In this contribution, most recent LHCb results, obtained by exploiting decays, are presented.
The long standing discrepancy between determinations of the CKM matrix element $V_{ub}$ obtained from exclusive and inclusive semileptonic B decays are at level 3 standard deviations. This continues to challenge our understanding on both theoretical experimental sides. Exclusive $B_s$ in principle under good control provide complementary information with respect B-factories this sector. article reports observation decay $B^0_s\to K^- \mu^+ \nu_{\mu}$ using 2fb$^{-1}$ data recorded 2012 by...
This summary reviews contributions to the CKM 2021 workshop in Working Group 4. In particular, theoretical and experimental progress determining $B$ meson mixing properties are discussed.
Rare $b$-hadron decays are sensitive probes of New Physics through the study branching fractions, angular observables and CP asymmetries among others. Moreover, LHCb experiment has opportunity to rare heavy b-quark hadrons such as $\Lambda_b$ baryons, which cannot be explored at B factories. Recent results from presented their interpretation is discussed.
