Using a data sample of root s = 13 TeV protonproton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2017 and 2018 with an integrated luminosity of 103 fb(-1), the B-s(0) -> psi(2S)K-S(0) and B-0 -> psi(2S)K-S(0) pi(+) pi(-) decays are observed with significances exceeding 5 standard deviations. The resulting branching fraction ratios, measured for the first time, correspond to B(B-s(0) -> psi(2S)K-S(0))/B(B-0 Zeta -> psi(2S)K-S(0)) = (3.33 +/- 0.69(stat) +/- 0.11 (syst) +/- 0.34 (f(s)/f(d))) x 10(-2) and B(B-0 -> psi(2S)K-S(0) pi(+) pi(-))/B(B-0 -> psi(2S)K-S(0)) = 0.480 +/- 0.013 (stat) +/- 0.032 (syst), where the last uncertainty in the first ratio is related to the uncertainty in the ratio of production cross sections of B-s(0) and B-0 mesons, f(s)/f(d).

Abstract
Using a data sample of root s = 13 TeV protonproton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2017 and 2018 with an integrated luminosity of 103 fb(-1), the B-s(0) -> psi(2S)K-S(0) and B-0 -> psi(2S)K-S(0) pi(+) pi(-) decays are observed with significances exceeding 5 standard deviations. The resulting branching fraction ratios, measured for the first time, correspond to B(B-s(0) -> psi(2S)K-S(0))/B(B-0 Zeta -> psi(2S)K-S(0)) = (3.33 +/- 0.69(stat) +/- 0.11 (syst) +/- 0.34 (f(s)/f(d))) x 10(-2) and B(B-0 -> psi(2S)K-S(0) pi(+) pi(-))/B(B-0 -> psi(2S)K-S(0)) = 0.480 +/- 0.013 (stat) +/- 0.032 (syst), where the last uncertainty in the first ratio is related to the uncertainty in the ratio of production cross sections of B-s(0) and B-0 mesons, f(s)/f(d).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
