Measurement of D0 − antiD0 mixing and CP violation in D0→K+π – decays
Today, at a CERN seminar, the LHCb collaboration reported results of the measurement of D0 − D0 mixing and CP violation in D0→K+π– decays with the full Run 2 data…
Ruhr-Universität Bochum became LHCb’s 100th collaborating Institute
In February 2024, the Ruhr-Universität Bochum became 100th institute to join the LHCb collaboration. We have come a long way since August 1995, when a Letter of Intent was submitted…
Observation of the Bc+→J/ψπ+π0 decay
The LHCb collaboration today submitted for publication a paper reporting the first observation of the Bc+→J/ψπ+π0 decay with overwhelming significance. The π+π0 mass spectrum is consistent with the dominance of…

Today the LHCb collaboration complete the release of data collected throughout the Run I of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The sample made available amounts to approximately 800 terabytes…
LHCb’ s 700th publication reports interesting studies of Quantum Chromodynamics
The LHCb collaboration submitted its 700th publication! The paper reports the integrated and differential cross-section measurements of associated J/ψ and ψ(2S) production in proton-proton collisions at 13TeV, the measurement is…
Heavy Ion collisions ended 2023 data taking period
The 2023 data-taking period ended this morning at 4 am. This year LHCb started taking data on April 14 with proton-proton collisions and ended today with lead-lead heavy ion collisions.…
Second life of the LHCb’s Outer Tracker at GSI
The Outer Tracker (OT) is the largest component of tracking system in the original version of the LHCb detector. It was replaced by the Scintillating Fibre (SciFi) sub-detector in the…
New observation of hypertriton and antihypertriton production in LHC proton-proton collisions
Today, at the European Physical Society Conference on High Energy Physics (EPS-HEP), the LHCb Collaboration reported its first observation of hypertritons and antihypertritons using Run 2 data collected between 2016…
