Precision measurement of D meson mass differences
A bstractUsing three- and four-body decays of D mesons produced in semileptonic b-hadron decays, precision measurements of D meson mass differences are made together with a measurement of the D0 mass. The measurements are based on a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 collected in pp collisions at 7 TeV. Using the decay D0 → K+K−K−π+, the D0 mass is measured to be
$ M\left( } \right)={{{1864.75\pm 0.15\left( {\mathrm{stat}} \right)\pm 0.11\left( {\mathrm{syst}} \right)\mathrm{MeV}}} \left/ {{{c^2}}} \right.}. $
 The mass differences
 $ \begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{{{M\left( } \right)-M\left( } \right)=4.76\pm 0.12\left( {\mathrm{stat}} \right)\pm 0.07\left( {\mathrm{syst}} \right)\mathrm{MeV}}} \left/ {{{c^2}}} \right.},} \hfill \\ {{{{M\left( } \right)-M\left( } \right)=98.68\pm 0.03\left( {\mathrm{stat}} \right)\pm 0.04\left( {\mathrm{syst}} \right)\mathrm{MeV}}} \left/ {{{c^2}}} \right.}} \hfill \\ \end{array} $
 are measured using the D0 → K+K−π+π− and $ D_{(s)}^{+}\to {K^{+}}{K^{-}}{\pi^{+}} $ modes.

title: Measurement of CP violation in the phase space of $B^{\pm} \to K^{\pm} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $B^{\pm} \to K^{\pm} K^{+} K^{-}$ decays
abstract: The charmless decays $B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}\pi^+\pi^-$ and $B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}K^+K^-$ are reconstructed using data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by LHCb in 2011. The inclusive charge asymmetries of these modes are measured as $A_{C\!P}(B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}\pi^+\pi^-) = 0.032 \pm 0.008 \stat \pm 0.004 \syst \pm 0.007 (J\psi K^{\pm})$ and $A_{C\!P}(B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}K^+K^-) = -0.043 \pm 0.009 \stat \pm 0.003 \syst \pm 0.007 (J\psi K^{\pm})$, where the third uncertainty is due to the $C\!P$ asymmetry of the $B^{\pm}\to J\psi K^{\pm}$ reference mode. The significance of $A_{C\!P}(B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}K^+K^-)$ exceeds three standard deviations and is the first evidence of an inclusive $C\!P$ asymmetry in charmless three-body $B$ decays. In addition to the inclusive $C\!P$ asymmetries, larger asymmetries are observed in localised regions of phase space.

title: Measurement of the resonant and CP components in $\overline{B}^0\to J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$ decays
abstract: The resonant structure of the reaction $\overline{B}^0\rightarrow J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$ is studied using data from 3 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected by the LHCb experiment, one-third at 7 Tev center-of-mass energy and the remainder at 8 Tev. The invariant mass of the $\pi^+\pi^-$ pair and three decay angular distributions are used to determine the fractions of the resonant and non-resonant components. Six interfering $\pi^+\pi^-$ states: $\rho(770)$, $f_0(500)$, $f_2(1270)$, $\rho(1450)$, $\omega(782)$ and $\rho(1700)$ are required to give a good description of invariant mass spectra and decay angular distributions. The positive and negative CP fractions of each of the resonant final states are determined. The $f_0(980)$ meson is not seen and the upper limit on its presence, compared with the observed $f_0(500)$ rate, is inconsistent with a model of tetraquark substructure for these scalar mesons at the eight standard deviation level. In the $q\overline{q}$ model, the absolute value of the mixing angle between the $f_0(980)$ and the $f_0(500)$ scalar mesons is limited to be less than $17^{\circ}$ at 90% confidence level.

title: Search for CP violation in the decay $D^+ \to \pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$
abstract: A search for CP violation in the phase space of the decay $D^+\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ is reported using $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The Dalitz plot distributions for $3.1\times 10^6$ $D^+$ and $D^-$ candidates are compared with binned and unbinned model-independent techniques. No evidence for CP violation is found.

title: Determination of the X(3872) meson quantum numbers.
abstract: The quantum numbers of the X(3872) meson are determined to be J(PC)=1(++) based on angular correlations in B(+)→X(3872)K(+) decays, where X(3872)→π(+)π(-)J/ψ and J/ψ→μ(+)μ(-). The data correspond to 1.0 fb(-1) of pp collisions collected by the LHCb detector. The only alternative assignment allowed by previous measurements J(PC)=2(-+) is rejected with a confidence level equivalent to more than 8 Gaussian standard deviations using a likelihood-ratio test in the full angular phase space. This result favors exotic explanations of the X(3872) state.

abstract: We have built a polarized proton and deuteron target for experiments using intense high-energy electron beams. This system exploits dynamical nuclear polarization of irradiated ammonia in a 5 T magnetic field at temperatures near 1 K. We describe the various features and the performance of the target.

title: Large Dynamic Range Beam Profile Measurement in a High Background Environment
abstract: Beam profile measurements using a scanning target and loss monitor in the Fermilab Main Ring extraction channel have long proved their usefulness as a diagnostic method in analyzing extraction problems. To extend these measurements to a sensitivity greater than in the present system a different technique has been employed. A simple three element particle telescope viewing the scanning target allows a sensitive measurement of the tail on the edges of the beam profiles as well as the relative particle densities of the extracted beam and the circulating beam in the Main Ring. Both these regions are of significant interest in understanding extraction losses. The details of the profile measurement technique, some results using the telescope and possible methods of improving the measurements are discussed.

title: Eta photoproduction on the proton for photon energies from 0.75 to 1.95 GeV.
abstract: Differential cross sections for gammap-->etap have been measured with tagged real photons for incident photon energies from 0.75 to 1.95 GeV. Mesons were identified by missing mass reconstruction using kinematical information for protons scattered in the production process. The data provide the first extensive angular distribution measurements for the process above W=1.75 GeV. Comparison with preliminary results from a constituent quark model support the suggestion that a third S11 resonance with mass approximately 1.8 GeV couples to the etaN channel.
