The first observation of the decay $B_s^0 rightarrow phi bar{K}^{*0}$ is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $sqrt{s} = 7 TeV$, collected with the LHCb detector. A yield of $30 pm 6$ $B_s^0 rightarrow (K^+K^-)(K^-pi^+)$ decays is found in the mass windows $1012.5 < M(K^+K^-) < 1026.5 MeV/c^2$ and $746 < M(K^-pi^+)< 1046 MeV/c^2$. The signal yield is found to be dominated by $B_s^0 rightarrow phi bar{K}^{*0}$ decays, and the corresponding branching fraction is measured to be ${cal B}(B_s^0 rightarrow phi bar{K}^{*0}) = (1.10 pm 0.24 (stat) pm 0.14 (syst) pm 0.08 (f_d/f_s)) times 10^{-6}$, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic and from the ratio of fragmentation fractions $f_d/f_s$ which accounts for the different production rate of $B^0$ and $B_s^0$ mesons. The significance of $B_s^0 rightarrow phi bar{K}^{*0}$ signal is 6.1 standard deviations. The fraction of longitudinal polarization in $B_s^0 rightarrow phi bar{K}^{*0}$ decays is found to be $f_0 = 0.51 pm 0.15 (stat) pm 0.07 (syst)$.

The first observation of the decay $kstarkstar$ is reported using 35invpb of data collected by LHCb in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. A total of $49.8 pm 7.5$ $B^0_s rightarrow (K^+pi^-)(K^-pi^+)$ events are {observed w ithin $pm 50 mevcc$ of the Bs mass and $746 mevcc < m_{Kpi}< 1046 mevcc$, mostly coming from a resonant $kstarkstar$ signal.} The branching fraction and the CP-averaged Kstarz longitudinal polarization fraction are measured to be {$BR(kstarkstar) = (2.81 pm 0.46 ({rm stat.}) pm 0.45 ({rm syst.}) pm 0.34, (f_s/f_d))times10^{-5}$} and $f_L = 0.31 pm 0.12 ({rm stat.}) pm 0.04 ({rm syst.})$.
The $B_s^0 rightarrow J/psi phi phi$ decay is observed in $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 TeV and 8 TeV. This is the first observation of this decay channel, with a statistical significance of 15 standard deviations. The mass of the $B_s^0$ meson is measured to be $5367.08,pm ,0.38,pm, 0.15$ MeV/c$^2$. The branching fraction ratio $mathcal{B}(B_s^0 rightarrow J/psi phi phi)/mathcal{B}(B_s^0 rightarrow J/psi phi)$ is measured to be $0.0115,pm, 0.0012, ^{+0.0005}_{-0.0009}$. In both cases, the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. No evidence for non-resonant $B_s^0 rightarrow J/psi phi K^+ K^-$ or $B_s^0 rightarrow J/psi K^+ K^- K^+ K^-$ decays is found.
The first observation of the decay $B^0 rightarrow D^0 overline{D}{}^0 K^+ pi^-$ is reported using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 $mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment in 2011, 2012 and 2016 . The measurement is performed in the full kinematically allowed range of the decay outside of the $D^{*-}$ region. The ratio of the branching fraction relative to that of the control channel $B^0 rightarrow D^{*-} D^0 K^+$ is measured to be $mathcal{R} = (14.2 pm 1.1 pm 1.0)%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The absolute branching fraction of $B^0 rightarrow D^0 overline{D}{}^0 K^+ pi^-$ decays is thus determined to be $mathcal{B}(B^0 rightarrow D^0 overline{D}{}^0 K^+ pi^-) = (3.50 pm 0.27 pm 0.26 pm 0.30) times 10^{-4}$, where the third uncertainty is due to the branching fraction of the control channel. This decay mode is expected to provide insights to spectroscopy and the charm-loop contributions in rare semileptonic decays.
The first observation of the $B_s^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-$ decay is reported, together with the most precise branching fraction measurement of the mode $B^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-$. The results are obtained from an analysis of $pp$ collision dat a corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0~textrm{fb}^{-1}$. The data were collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of $7$ and $8$ TeV. The branching fraction of the $B^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-$ decay is measured relative to that of the decay $B^0 to overline{D}^0 pi^+ pi^-$ to be $$frac{mathcal{B}(B^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-)}{mathcal{B}(B^0 to overline{D}^0 pi^+ pi^-)} = (6.9 pm 0.4 pm 0.3)%,$$ where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The measured branching fraction of the $B_s^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-$ decay mode relative to that of the corresponding $B^0$ decay is $$frac{mathcal{B}(B_s^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-)}{mathcal{B}(B^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-)} = (93.0 pm 8.9 pm 6.9)%.$$ Using the known branching fraction of ${B^0 to overline{D}^0 pi^+ pi^-}$, the values of ${{mathcal B}(B^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^- )=(6.1 pm 0.4 pm 0.3 pm 0.3) times 10^{-5}}$, and ${{cal B}(B_s^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-)=}$ $(5.7 pm 0.5 pm 0.4 pm 0.5) times 10^{-5}$ are obtained, where the third uncertainties arise from the branching fraction of the decay modes ${B^0 to overline{D}^0 pi^+ pi^-}$ and $B^0 to overline{D}^0 K^+ K^-$, respectively.
The resonant substructure of $B_s^0 rightarrow bar{D}^0 K^- pi^+$ decays is studied with the Dalitz plot analysis technique. The study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0,{rm fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data re corded by LHCb. A structure at $m(bar{D}^0 K^-) approx 2.86 {rm GeV}/c^2$ is found to be an admixture of spin-1 and spin-3 resonances. The masses and widths of these states and of the $D^*_{s2}(2573)^-$ meson are measured, as are the complex amplitudes and fit fractions for all the $bar{D}^0 K^-$ and $K^-pi^+$ components included in the amplitude model. In addition, the $D^*_{s2}(2573)^-$ resonance is confirmed to be spin-2.
