The cross-section for prompt production of.c(1S) mesons relative to that of the J/. meson is measured using the p p decay mode and is found to be s.c(1S)/sJ/. = 1.69 +/- 0.15 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.18. The quoted uncertainties are, in order, statistical, systematic and due to uncertainties on the branching fractions of the J/.. p p and.c. p p decays. The prompt.c(1S) production cross-section is determined to be s.c( 1S) = 1.26 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.08 +/- 0.14 $\mu$b, where the last uncertainty includes that on the J/. meson cross-section. The ratio of the branching fractions of b-hadron decays to the.c(1S) and J/. states is measured to be Bb..c X /Bb. J/. X = 0.48 +/- 0.03 +/- 0.03 +/- 0.05, where the last uncertainty is due to those on the branching fractions of the J/.. p p and.c. p p decays. The difference between the J/. and.c(1S) masses is also determined to be 113.0 +/- 0.7 +/- 0.1MeV, which is the most precise single measurement of this quantity to date.", optnote="WOS:000528546600004", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4398), last updated on Thu, 28 May 2020 08:17:43 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-020-7733-0", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.03326", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-020-7733-0", language="English" }
