Abstract

A measurement of the shape of the differential decay rate and the associated Isgur-Wise function for the decay Λ0b → Λc+ μ− anti-ν_μ is reported, using data corresponding to 3 fb^−1 collected with the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions. The Λc+ μ− anti-ν_μ (+anything) final states are reconstructed through the detection of a muon and a Λc+ baryon decaying into p K− π+, and the decays Λ0b → Λc+ π+ π− μ− anti-ν_μ are used to determine contributions from Λ0b → Λc*+ μ− anti-ν_μ decays. The measured dependence of the differential decay rate upon the squared four-momentum transfer between the heavy baryons, q^2, is compared with expectations from heavy-quark effective theory and from unquenched lattice QCD predictions.
