Аннотация:The cross-sections of 𝜓(2𝑆) meson production in proton-proton collisions at 𝑠√=13 TeV are measured with a data sample collected by the LHCb detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 275 pb−1. The production cross-sections for prompt 𝜓(2𝑆) mesons and those for 𝜓(2𝑆) mesons from b-hadron decays (𝜓(2𝑆)-from- 𝑏) are determined as functions of the transverse momentum, 𝑝T, and the rapidity, y, of the 𝜓(2𝑆) meson in the kinematic range 2<𝑝T<20 GeV/𝑐 and 2.0<𝑦<4.5
. The production cross-sections integrated over this kinematic region are
𝜎( prompt 𝜓(2𝑆),13 TeV)=1.430±0.005 (stat)±0.099 (syst)μb,𝜎(𝜓(2𝑆)-from- 𝑏,13 TeV)=0.426±0.002 (stat)±0.030 (syst)μb.
A new measurement of 𝜓(2𝑆)
production cross-sections in pp collisions at 𝑠√=7 TeV is also performed using data collected in 2011, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 614 pb−1. The integrated production cross-sections in the kinematic range 3.5<𝑝T<14 GeV/𝑐 and 2.0<𝑦<4.5
are
𝜎( prompt 𝜓(2𝑆),7 TeV)=0.471±0.001 (stat)±0.025 (syst)μb,𝜎(𝜓(2𝑆)-from- 𝑏,7 TeV)=0.126±0.001 (stat)±0.008 (syst)μb.
All results show reasonable agreement with theoretical calculations.
