Measurement of the B+c meson lifetime using B+c→J/ψμ+νμX decays. Eur. Phys. J. C 74, 2839 (2014). https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-014-2839-x1434-6044http://hdl.handle.net/10347/21640The lifetime of the B+c meson is measured using semileptonic decays having a J/ψ meson and a muon in the final state. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 fb −1, are collected by the LHCb detector in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The measured lifetime is τ=509±8±12 fs, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.eng© CERN for the benefit of the LHCb collaboration 2014.
