Abstract: (Springer)
Angular distributions of the decay B→ K(892)μμ are studied using events collected with the CMS detector in = 8 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.0 fb. The forward-backward asymmetry of the muons and the longitudinal polarization of the K(892) meson are determined as a function of the square of the dimuon invariant mass. These are the first results from this exclusive decay mode and are in agreement with a standard model prediction.[graphic not available: see fulltext]Note:
