Abstract

A study of Λb0 and Ξb0 baryon decays to the final states pKS0π− and pKS0K− is performed using pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb⁻¹. The decays Λb0→pKS0K− and Ξb0→pKS0K− are observed for the first time, with significances reaching eight standard deviations. The branching fractions and integrated CP asymmetries are measured for the Λb0→pKS0π−, Λb0→pKS0K−, and Ξb0→pKS0K− decays. For the decay Λb0→pKS0π−, the CP asymmetries are measured in different regions of the Dalitz plot. No evidence of CP violation is observed.
