Abstract

An amplitude analysis of flavor-untagged B0s → J=ψpp ̄ decays is performed using a sample of 797 31 decays reconstructed with the LHCb detector. The data, collected in proton-proton collisions between 2011 and 2018, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb−1. Evidence for a new structure in the J=ψp and J=ψp ̄ systems with a mass of 4337þ7 þ2 MeV and a width of 29þ26 þ14 MeV is found, where the first −4 −2 −12 −14 uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic, with a significance in the range of 3.1 to 3.7σ, depending on the assigned JP hypothesis.
