 Precision measurement of the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ mass / LHCb Collaboration A measurement of the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ mass is performed using data collected by the LHCb experiment between 2016 and 2018 in $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.6 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. The $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ candidates are reconstructed via the decay modes $\Xi_{cc}^{++}\to\Lambda_c^+K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ and $\Xi_{cc}^{++}\to\Xi_c^+\pi^+$.

 Determination of quantum numbers for several excited charmed mesons observed in $B^- \to D^{*+} \pi^- \pi^-$ decays / LHCb Collaboration A four-body amplitude analysis of the $B^- \to D^{*+} \pi^- \pi^-$ decay is performed, where fractions and relative phases of the various resonances contributing to the decay are measured. Several quasi-model-independent analyses are performed aimed at searching for the presence of new states and establishing the quantum numbers of previously observed charmed meson resonances.

 Updated measurement of decay-time-dependent CP asymmetries in $D^0 \to K^+K^-$ and $D^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-$ decays / LHCb Collaboration A search for decay-time-dependent charge-parity ($CP$) asymmetry in $D^0 \to K^+K^-$ and $D^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-$ decays is performed at the LHCb experiment using proton-proton collision data recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4fb$^{-1}$. The $D^0$ mesons are required to originate from semileptonic decays of $b$ hadrons, such that the charge of the muon identifies the flavor of the neutral $D$ meson at production.

 Search for $A' \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ decays / LHCb Collaboration Searches are performed for both prompt-like and long-lived dark photons, $A'$, produced in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. These searches look for $A'\!\to\!\mu^+\mu^-$ decays using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.5fb$^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb detector.

 More than preservation: Creating motivational designs and tailored incentives in research data repositories / Feger, Sebastian Stefan (CERN) Preserving and sharing are core reproducible practices that require substantial efforts in preparing and documenting research data analyses. Dedicated tools and services are developed to support researchers in this process. [...] CERN-OPEN-2019-007.- Geneva : CERN, 2019 - 5 p.

 Search for the doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{+}$ / LHCb Collaboration A search for the doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{+}$ is performed through its decay to the $\Lambda_c^+ K^- \pi^+$ final state, using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13$\mathrm{\,Te\kern -0.1em V}$.

 Amplitude analysis of the $B^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ decay / LHCb Collaboration The results of an amplitude analysis of the charmless three-body decay $B^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$, in which $CP$-violation effects are taken into account, are reported. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3 \; {\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions recorded with the LHCb detector.

 Observation of several sources of $CP$ violation in $B^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ decays / LHCb Collaboration Observations are reported of different sources of $CP$ violation from an amplitude analysis of $B^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ decays, based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3 \; {\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions recorded with the LHCb detector. A large $CP$ asymmetry is observed in the decay amplitude involving the tensor $f_2(1270)$ resonance, and in addition significant $CP$ violation is found in the $\pi^+ \pi^-$ S-wave at low invariant mass.

 Measurement of CP violation in the $B_s^0\rightarrow\phi\phi$ decay and search for the $B^0\rightarrow\phi\phi$ decay / LHCb Collaboration A measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry in $B_s^0\rightarrow\phi\phi$ decays is presented.

 Precision measurement of the $\Lambda_c^+$, $\Xi_c^+$ and $\Xi_c^0$ baryon lifetimes / LHCb Collaboration We report measurements of the lifetimes of the $\Lambda_c^+$, $\Xi_c^+$ and $\Xi_c^0$ charm baryons using proton-proton collision data at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment. The charm baryons are reconstructed through the decays $\Lambda_c^+\to pK^-\pi^+$, $\Xi_c^+\to pK^-\pi^+$ and $\Xi_c^0\to pK^-K^-\pi^+$, and originate from semimuonic decays of beauty baryons.
