Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of quarks and gluons, whose interactions can be
described by a local SU (3) gauge symmetry with charges called “color quantum numbers” …

We examine the theoretical motivations for long-lived particle (LLP) signals at the LHC in a
comprehensive survey of standard model (SM) extensions. LLPs are a common prediction of …

High energy collisions at the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (LHC) produce a large
number of particles along the beam collision axis, outside of the acceptance of existing LHC …

The ratio of the B s 0 and B 0 fragmentation fractions, fs/fd, in proton-proton collisions at the
LHC, is obtained as a function of B-meson transverse momentum and collision center-of …

A bstract The p T-differential production cross sections of prompt and non-prompt (produced
in beauty-hadron decays) D mesons were measured by the ALICE experiment at midrapidity …

The production fractions of B¯ s 0 and Λ b 0 hadrons, normalized to the sum of B-and B¯ 0
fractions, are measured in 13 TeV pp collisions using data collected by the LHCb …

High-energy cosmic rays are observed indirectly by detecting the extensive air showers
initiated in Earth's atmosphere. The interpretation of these observations relies on accurate …

A bstract An angular analysis of the rare decay\({B} _s^ 0\)→ ϕμ+ μ− is presented, using
proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of …

The study of lepton flavor universality violation (LFUV) in semitauonic b-hadron decays has
become increasingly important in light of long-standing anomalies in their measured …

Quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the generally accepted theory for strong interactions,
describes the interactions between quarks and gluons. The strongly interacting particles that …
