The differential branching fraction with respect to the dimuon invariant mass squared, and the $C!P$ asymmetry of the $B^pmtopi^pmmu^+mu^-$ decay are measured for the first time. The CKM matrix elements $|V_{td}|$ and $|V_{ts}|$, and the ratio $|V_{td}/V_{ts}|$ are determined. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The total branching fraction and $C!P$ asymmetry of $B^pmtopi^pmmu^+mu^-$ decays are measured to be begin{eqnarray} mathcal{B}(B^pmtopi^pmmu^+mu^-) &=& (1.83 pm 0.24 pm 0.05) times 10^{-8},,,mathrm{and} onumber mathcal{A}_{C!P}(B^pmtopi^pmmu^+mu^-) &=& -0.11 pm 0.12 pm 0.01,, onumber end{eqnarray} where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These are the most precise measurements of these observables to date, and they are compatible with the predictions of the Standard Model.

An angular analysis and a measurement of the differential branching fraction of the decay $B^0_stophimu^+mu^-$ are presented, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0, {rm fb^{-1}}$ of $pp$ collisions recorded by the LHCb experiment at $sqrt{s} = 7$ and $8, {rm TeV}$. Measurements are reported as a function of $q^{2}$, the square of the dimuon invariant mass and results of the angular analysis are found to be consistent with the Standard Model. In the range $1<q^2<6, {rm GeV}^{2}/c^{4}$, where precise theoretical calculations are available, the differential branching fraction is found to be more than $3,sigma$ below the Standard Model predictions.
The differential branching fraction of the decay $Lambda_b^0rightarrowLambdamu^+mu^-$ is measured as a function of the square of the dimuon invariant mass, $q^2$. A yield of $78pm12$ $Lambda_b^0rightarrowLambdamu^+mu^-$ decays is observed using data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0,fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 7,TeV. A significant signal is found in the $q^2$ region above the square of the $J/psi$ mass, while at lower-$q^2$ values upper limits are set on the differential branching fraction. Integrating the differential branching fraction over $q^2$, while excluding the $J/psi$ and $psi(2S)$ regions, gives a branching fraction of $BF($Lambda_b^0rightarrowLambdamu^+mu^-$)=(0.96pm 0.16statpm 0.13systpm 0.21 (mathrm{norm}))times 10^{-6}$, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic and due to the normalisation mode, $$Lambda_b^0rightarrow J/psiLambda$, respectively.
The angular distribution and differential branching fraction of the decay $B^{+} rightarrow K^{+}mu^{+}mu^{-}$ are studied with a dataset corresponding to $1.0,mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, collected by the LHCb experiment. The angular distribution is measured in bins of dimuon invariant mass squared and found to be consistent with Standard Model expectations. Integrating the differential branching fraction over the full dimuon invariant mass range yields a total branching fraction of $mathcal{B}(B^{+} rightarrow K^{+}mu^{+}mu^{-}) = (4.36 pm 0.15 pm 0.18)times 10^{-7}$. These measurements are the most precise to date of the $B^{+} rightarrow K^{+}mu^{+}mu^{-}$ decay.
The branching fraction and direct $C!P$ asymmetry of the decay $B^{+}rightarrow J/psi rho^{+}$ are measured using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 3$mbox{fb}^{-1}$. The following results are obtained: begin{align} mathcal{B}(B^{+}rightarrow J/psi rho^{+}) &= (3.81 ^{+0.25}_{-0.24} pm 0.35) times 10^{-5}, onumber mathcal{A}^{C!P} (B^{+}rightarrow J/psi rho^{+}) &= -0.045^{+0.056}_{-0.057} pm 0.008, onumber end{align} where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. Both measurements are the most precise to date.
The angular distribution and differential branching fraction of the decay $B^{0} to K^{*0} mu^{+}mu^{-}$ are studied using a data sample, collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at $sqrt{s}=7,{rm TeV}$, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0,{rm fb}^{-1}$. Several angular observables are measured in bins of the dimuon invariant mass squared, $q^{2}$. A first measurement of the zero-crossing point of the forward-backward asymmetry of the dimuon system is also presented. The zero-crossing point is measured to be $q_{0}^{2} = 4.9 pm 0.9 ,{rm GeV}^{2}/c^{4}$, where the uncertainty is the sum of statistical and systematic uncertainties. The results are consistent with the Standard Model predictions.
