The production of ttâ¾, W+bbâ¾ and W+ccâ¾ is studied in the forward region of protonâproton collisions collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.98�0.02 fbâ1. The W bosons are reconstructed in the decays Wââν, where â denotes muon or electron, while the b and c quarks are reconstructed as jets. All measured cross-sections are in agreement with next-to-leading-order Standard Model predictions.

Abstract
The production of ttâ¾, W+bbâ¾ and W+ccâ¾ is studied in the forward region of protonâproton collisions collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.98�0.02 fbâ1. The W bosons are reconstructed in the decays Wââν, where â denotes muon or electron, while the b and c quarks are reconstructed as jets. All measured cross-sections are in agreement with next-to-leading-order Standard Model predictions.File in questo prodotto:
