27 Conclusions The obtained preliminary relative branching fraction is: B(Λ b Λ 0 ψ(2s)) = 0.66 ± 0.11 (stat) ± 0.07(syst) ± 0.07(PDG) B(Λ b Λ 0 ψ(1s)) where: ψ(2s) µ + µ -, Λ 0 pπ -, J/ψ µ + µ -. This measurement is statistically dominated and can be improve by adding more data: One way is including the analysis of another ψ(2s) decay mode as ψ(2s) J/ψ π + π - (In progress). Another way is analyzing more data. The group already started working with dataset from MuOnia 2012 with ~20/fb of luminosity, collected by the CMS experiment in pp collisions at centre of mass energy of 8 TeV. The contaminations from B 0 K 0 sψ(2s), B 0 K 0 s J/ψ and K 0 s are negligible. 27
