The results are obtained from an analysis of pp collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb−1. The data were collected with the LHCb detector at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The branching fraction of the B0 → D¯ 0KþK− decay is measured relative to that of the decay B0 → D¯ 0πþπ− to be BðB0→D¯ 0KþK−Þ BðB0→D¯ 0πþπ−Þ ¼ ð6.9 0.4 0.3Þ%, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The measured branching fraction of the B0 s → D¯ 0KþK− decay mode relative to that of the corresponding B0 decay is BðB0 s→D¯ 0KþK−Þ BðB0→D¯ 0KþK−Þ ¼ ð93.0 8.9 6.9Þ%. Using the known branching fraction of B0 → D¯ 0πþπ−, the values of BðB0 →D¯ 0KþK−Þ¼ð6.10.40.30.3Þ×10−5 and BðB0 s →D¯ 0KþK−Þ¼ð5.70.50.40.5Þ×10−5 are obtained, where the third uncertainties arise from the branching fraction of the decay modes B0 → D¯ 0πþπ− and B0 → D¯ 0KþK−, respectively19 p.application/pdfengcc by (c) Alfonso Albero, Alejandro et al., 2018http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/Física de partículesExperimentsGran Col·lisionador d'HadronsParticle physicsExperimentsLarge Hadron Collider (France and Switzerland)info:eu-repo/semantics/article6842192023-04-19info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
