Conclusions Rlaiv bauy conribuion o h havy flavour dcay lcron yild is masurd in pp collisions a 2.76 TV wih h ALICE dcor using an EMCal riggr. Bauy conribuion o havy flavour lcron yild is similar o charm conribuion a around 5 GV/c. Bauy fracion is wll dscribd by FONLL pqcd calculaion and i is comparabl o rsuls a 2 GV from RHIC. Oulook: Masurmn of h B dcay lcron cross scion wih Havy Flavour Elcron spcra. Prform his analysis in Pb-Pb collisions a 2.76 TV. 2
