Description

By using proton-proton collision data of the LHC Run I, LHCb measured the forward-backward charge asymmetry for the process \bar q q —> Z/γ* —> mu+mu- . We will present these results, which, within the Standard Model, provide the best constrain of the effective electroweak mixing angle at hadron colliders. Additionally, the measurement of the top production cross section, also performed with LHCb Run I data, will be presented.
