Measurement of forward tt‾, W +bb¯and W + cc¯production in pp Collisions At √s = 8 TeV

The production of tt‾, W+bb‾ and W+cc‾ is studied in the forward region of proton–proton collisions collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.98±0.02 fb⁻¹. The W bosons are reconstructed in the decays W→ℓν, where ℓ denotes mu...
