The branching fraction ratio $mathcal{R}(D^{*}) equiv mathcal{B}(overline{B}^0 to D^{*+}tau^{-}overline{ u}_{tau})/mathcal{B}(overline{B}^0 to D^{*+}mu^{-}overline{ u}_{mu})$ is measured using a sample of proton-proton collision data corresponding to 3.0invfb of integrated luminosity recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 and 2012. The tau lepton is identified in the decay mode $tau^{-} to mu^{-}overline{ u}_{mu} u_{tau}$. The semitauonic decay is sensitive to contributions from non-Standard-Model particles that preferentially couple to the third generation of fermions, in particular Higgs-like charged scalars. A multidimensional fit to kinematic distributions of the candidate $overline{B}^0$ decays gives $mathcal{R}(D^{*}) = 0.336 pm 0.027(stat) pm 0.030 (syst)$. This result, which is the first measurement of this quantity at a hadron collider, is $2.1$ standard deviations larger than the value expected from lepton universality in the Standard Model.

The decay of the narrow resonance $overline{B}{}_{s2}^{*0}!rightarrow B^- K^+$ can be used to determine the $B^-$ momentum in partially reconstructed decays without any assumptions on the decay products of the $B^-$ meson. This technique is employed
for the first time to distinguish contributions from $D^0$, $D^{*0}$, and higher-mass charmed states ($D^{**0}$) in semileptonic $B^-$ decays by using the missing-mass distribution. The measurement is performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb${}^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb detector in $pp$ collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The resulting branching fractions relative to the inclusive $B^- !rightarrow D^0 X mu^- overline{ u}_mu$ are $f_{D^0} = mathcal{B}( B^- rightarrow D^0mu^-overline{ u}_mu )/mathcal{B}( B^- rightarrow D^0 X mu^- overline{ u}_mu ) = 0.25 pm 0.06$, $f_{D^{**0}} = mathcal{B}( B^- rightarrow ( D^{**0} rightarrow D^0 X)mu^-overline{ u}_mu )/mathcal{B}( B^- rightarrow D^0 X mu^- overline{ u}_mu ) = 0.21 pm 0.07$, with $f_{D^{*0}} = 1 - f_{D^0} - f_{D^{**0}}$ making up the remainder.
The ratio of branching fractions ${cal{R}}(D^{*-})equiv {cal{B}}(B^0 to D^{*-} tau^+ u_{tau})/{cal{B}}(B^0 to D^{*-} mu^+ u_{mu})$ is measured using a data sample of proton-proton collisions collected with the LHCb detector at center-of-mass energie
s of 7 and 8 Tev, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3$~$fb$^{-1}$. For the first time ${cal{R}}(D^{*-})$ is determined using the $tau$ lepton decays with three charged pions in the final state. The $B^0 to D^{*-} tau^+ u_{tau}$ yield is normalized to that of the $B^0to D^{*-} pi^+pi^-pi^+$ mode, providing a measurement of ${cal{B}}(B^0to D^{*-}tau^+ u_{tau})/{cal{B}}(B^0to D^{*-}pi^+pi^-pi^+) = 1.97 pm 0.13 pm 0.18$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The value of ${cal{B}}(B^0 to D^{*-} tau^+ u_{tau}) = (1.42 pm 0.094 pm 0.129 pm 0.054)% $ is obtained, where the third uncertainty is due to the limited knowledge of the branching fraction of the normalization mode. Using the well-measured branching fraction of the $B^0 to D^{*-} mu^+ u_{mu}$ decay, a value of ${cal{R}}(D^{*-}) = 0.291 pm 0.019 pm 0.026 pm 0.013$ is established, where the third uncertainty is due to the limited knowledge of the branching fractions of the normalization and $B^0to D^{*-}mu^+ u_{mu}$ modes. This measurement is in agreement with the Standard Model prediction and with previous results.
The first observation of the $B_s^0 to overline{D}^{*0} phi$ decay is reported, with a significance of more than seven standard deviations, from an analysis of $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$, collected wi
th the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of $7$ and $8$ TeV. The branching fraction is measured relative to that of the topologically similar decay $B^0 to overline{D}^0 pi^+pi^-$ and is found to be $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to overline{D}^{*0} phi) = (3.7 pm 0.5 pm 0.3 pm 0.2) times 10^{-5}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic, and the third from the branching fraction of the $B^0 to overline{D}^0 pi^+pi^-$ decay. The fraction of longitudinal polarisation in this decay is measured to be ${f_{rm L} =(73 pm 15 pm 3)%}$. The most precise determination of the branching fraction for the $B_s^0 to overline{D}^{0} phi$ decay is also obtained, $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to overline{D}^{0} phi) = (3.0 pm 0.3 pm 0.2 pm 0.2) times 10^{-5}$. An upper limit, $mathcal{B}(B^0 to overline{D}^{0} phi) < 2.0 (2.2) times 10^{-6}$ at $90%$ (95%) confidence level is set. A constraint on the $omega-phi$ mixing angle $delta$ is set at $|delta| < 5.2^circ~ (5.5^circ)$ at $90%$ ($95%$) confidence level.
The resonant substructures of $B^0 to overline{D}^0 pi^+pi^-$ decays are studied with the Dalitz plot technique. In this study a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions collected by the LHCb detector
is used. The branching fraction of the $B^0 to overline{D}^0 pi^+pi^-$ decay in the region $m(overline{D}^0pi^{pm})>2.1$ GeV$/c^2$ is measured to be $(8.46 pm 0.14 pm 0.29 pm 0.40) times 10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic and the last arises from the normalisation channel $B^0 to D^*(2010)^-pi^+$. The $pi^+pi^-$ S-wave components are modelled with the Isobar and K-matrix formalisms. Results of the Dalitz plot analyses using both models are presented. A resonant structure at $m(overline{D}^0pi^-) approx 2.8$ GeV$/c^{2}$ is confirmed and its spin-parity is determined for the first time as $J^P = 3^-$. The branching fraction, mass and width of this structure are determined together with those of the $D^*_0(2400)^-$ and $D^*_2(2460)^-$ resonances. The branching fractions of other $B^0 to overline{D}^0 h^0$ decay components with $h^0 to pi^+pi^-$ are also reported. Many of these branching fraction measurements are the most precise to date. The first observation of the decays $B^0 to overline{D}^0 f_0(500)$, $B^0 to overline{D}^0 f_0(980)$, $B^0 to overline{D}^0 rho(1450)$, $B^0 to D_3^*(2760)^- pi^+$ and the first evidence of $B^0 to overline{D}^0 f_0(2020)$ are presented.
The semileptonic $CP$ asymmetry in $B^0-overline{B}{}^0$ mixing, $a_{rm sl}^d$, is measured in proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$, recorded by the LHCb experiment. Semileptonic $B^0$ decays are re
constructed in the inclusive final states $D^-mu^+$ and $D^{*-}mu^+$, where the $D^-$ meson decays into the $K^+pi^-pi^-$ final state, and the $D^{*-}$ meson into the $overline{D}{}^0(rightarrow K^+pi^-)pi^-$ final state. The asymmetry between the numbers of $D^{(*)-}mu^+$ and $D^{(*)+}mu^-$ decays is measured as a function of the decay time of the $B^0$ mesons. The $CP$ asymmetry is measured to be $a_{rm sl}^d = (-0.02 pm 0.19 pm 0.30)%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. This is the most precise measurement of $a_{rm sl}^d$ to date and is consistent with the prediction from the Standard Model.
