Today, at the CERN seminar, the LHCb Collaboration reported the observation of a strange pentaquark, a doubly charged tetraquark and its neutral partner. These results will also be presented at…
Measurement of the CKM angle γ
The largest CP violation ever observed. This week, at the 10th Annual Large Hadron Collider Physics Conference, LHCP2022, LHCb presented results of the determination of the Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa (CKM) angle γ…
LHCb measurements help to understand possible signatures of dark matter presence in the Universe
Today, at the Quark Matter conference at Kraków, Poland, the LHCb Collaboration presented results of an analysis which may have significant consequences for the search for “dark matter” in the…
