Significances of 9.3 sigma and 4.0 sigma, including statistical and systematic uncertainties, are obtained for the B-0 -> p (p) over barp (p) over bar and B-s(0) -> p (p) over barp (p) over bar signals, respectively. The branching fractions are measured relative to the topologically similar normalization decays B-0 -> J/psi(-> p (p) over bar )K*(0)(-> K+ pi(-) ) and B-s(0) -> J/psi(-> p (p) over bar )X phi(-> K+ K- ). The branching fractions are measured to be B(B-0 -> p (p) over barp (p) over bar) = (2.2 +/- 0.4 +/- 0.1 +/- 0.1) x 10(-8) and B(B-s(0) -> p (p) over barp (p) over bar) = (2.3 +/- 1.0 +/- 0.2 +/- 0.1) x 10(-8). In these measurements, the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third one is due to the external branching fraction of the normalization channel.", optnote="WOS:001091049600006", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5809), last updated on Wed, 10 Apr 2024 12:44:45 +0000", issn="0031-9007", doi="10.1103/PhysRevLett.131.091901", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.08847", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.131.091901", language="English" }
