Talk in Parallel Session at DIS2013 Heavy Flavours WG5: Heavy Flavours

Speaker

Description

The large production cross-sections at LHC energies, combined with an adapted trigger strategy has enabled CMS to collect large data samples to perform detailed studies of Beauty hadron properties. In this talk we will report from our latest results, including Lambda_b production cross-section and lifetime measurements, bbbar cross-section differential in the opening angles deltaPhi and deltaR and on branching ratios of the rarely studied Bc meson. The Lambda_b production cross-section versus pT is also compared to our previously measured pT spectra of B0, B+ and Bc mesons. This talk might also include new results on B hadron production, if approved in time.
