Abstract
The first observation of the decay 𝐵+→𝑝 is presented using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment between 2016 and 2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fb−1. The signal significance exceeds seven standard deviations. Using the 𝐵+ →𝐾0 S𝜋+ decay as a normalization channel, the branching fraction is measured and combined with previous LHCb results based on data collected at 7 and 8 TeV in 2011 and 2012, yielding ℬ(𝐵+→𝑝¯Λ)=(1.24±0.17±0.05±0.03)×10−7, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third comes from the uncertainty on the branching fraction of the normalization channel. The 𝐵+→𝑝¯Λweak decay parameter is measured to be 𝛼𝐵=0.87+0.26−0.29±0.09, indicating the presence of comparable S-wave and P-wave decay amplitudes.
