Measurement of the B[+ over c] meson lifetime using B[+ over c] → J/ψ μ[superscript +] ν [subscript μ] X decays

The lifetime of the B[+ over c] meson is measured using semileptonic decays having a J/ψ meson and a muon in the final state. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 fb[superscript -1], are collected by the LHCb detector in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The meas...
