Measurements are performed using proton proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at root s = 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 1 fb(-1) and 2 fb(-2) respectively. Within the Standard Model the results constrain the effective electroweak mixing angle to be %K Electroweak interaction %K Forward physics %K Hadron-Hadron Scattering %R 10.1007/JHEP11(2015)190 %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1509.07645 %U https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP11(2015)190 %P 190-19pp
