Abstract

A study of Λ 0 b and Ξ 0 b baryon decays to the final states pK0 S π − and pK0 SK− is performed using pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1 . The decays Λ 0 b → pK0 SK− and Ξ 0 b → pK0 SK− are observed for the first time, with significances reaching eight standard deviations. The branching fractions and integrated CP asymmetries are measured for the Λ 0 b → pK0 S π −, Λ 0 b → pK0 SK−, and Ξ 0 b → pK0 SK− decays. For the decay Λ 0 b → pK0 S π −, the CP asymmetries are measured in different regions of the Dalitz plot. No evidence of CP violation is observed.
