The B ± mesons are reconstructed exclusively in the B ± → J/ψK ± mode, with J/ψ → μ + μ −. The differential production cross-section is measured as a function of the B ± transverse momentum in the fiducial region 0 < p T < 40 GeV/c and with rapidity 2.0 < y < 4.5. The total cross-section, summing up B + and B −, is measured to be σ(pp → B ± X, 0 < p T < 40 GeV/c, 2.0 < y < 4.5) = 41.4 ± 1.5 (stat.) ± 3.1 (syst.) μb.13 p.application/pdfengcc by (c) LHCb Collaboration, 2012http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/HadronsGravitacióRelativitat (Física)Teoria quànticaTeoria quàntica de campsHadronsGravitationRelativity (Physics)Quantum theoryQuantum field theoryinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6195902014-10-20info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
