Bottom baryons decaying to a J/psi meson and a hyperon are reconstructed using 1.0 fb^{-1} of data collected in 2011 with the LHCb detector. Significant Lambda_b^0 rightarrow J/psi Lambda, Xi_b^-rightarrow J/psi Xi^- and Omega_b^- rightarrow J/psi Omega^- signals are observed and the corresponding masses are measured to be M(Lambda_b^0) = 5619.53 pm 0.13 (stat) pm 0.45 (syst) MeV/c^2, M(Xi_b^-) = 5795.8 pm 0.9 (stat) pm 0.4 (syst) MeV/c^2, M(Omega_b^-) = 6046.0 pm 2.2 (stat) pm 0.5 (syst) MeV/c^2, while the differences with respect to the Lambda_b^0 mass are M(Xi_b^-)-M(Lambda_b^0) = 176.2 pm 0.9 (stat) pm 0.1 (syst) MeV/c^2, M(Omega_b^-)-M(Lambda_b^0) = 426.4 pm 2.2 (stat) pm 0.4 (syst) MeV/c^2. These are the most precise mass measurements of the Lambda_b^0, Xi_b^- and Omega_b^- baryons to date. Averaging the above Lambda_b^0 mass measurement with that published by LHCb using 35 pb^{-1} of data collected in 2010 yields M(Lambda_b^0) = 5619.44 pm 0.13 (stat) pm 0.38 (syst) MeV/c^2.

Using a data sample of pp collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3~ rm fb^{-1}$, the $Xi_b^-$ and $Omega_b^-$ baryons are reconstructed in the $Xi_b^- rightarrow J/psi Xi^-$ and $Omega_b^- rightarrow J/psi Omega^-$ decay modes and t
heir lifetimes measured to be $tau (Xi_b^-) = 1.55, ^{+0.10}_{-0.09}~{rm(stat)} pm 0.03,{rm(syst)}$ ps, $tau (Omega_b^-) = 1.54, ^{+0.26}_{-0.21}~{rm(stat)} pm 0.05,{rm(syst)}$ ps. These are the most precise determinations to date. Both measurements are in good agreement with previous experimental results and with theoretical predictions.
We perform a search for near-threshold $Xi_b^0$ resonances decaying to $Xi_b^- pi^+$ in a sample of proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment. We observe one resonant state,
with the following properties: begin{eqnarray*} m(Xi_b^{*0}) - m(Xi_b^-) - m(pi^+) &=& 15.727 pm 0.068 , (mathrm{stat}) pm 0.023 , (mathrm{syst}) , mathrm{MeV}/c^2, Gamma(Xi_b^{*0}) &=& 0.90 pm 0.16 , (mathrm{stat}) pm 0.08 , (mathrm{syst}) , mathrm{MeV} . end{eqnarray*} This confirms the previous observation by the CMS collaboration. The state is consistent with the $J^P=3/2^+$ $Xi_b^{*0}$ resonance expected in the quark model. This is the most precise determination of the mass and the first measurement of the natural width of this state. We have also measured the ratio begin{align*} frac{sigma(pp to Xi_b^{*0} X){cal{B}}(Xi_b^{*0} to Xi_b^- pi^+)}{sigma(pp to Xi_b^- X)} = 0.28 pm 0.03 , (mathrm{stat}) pm 0.01 , (mathrm{syst}) . end{align*}
A search for charmless four-body decays of $Lambda_{b}^{0}$ and $Xi_{b}^{0}$ baryons with a proton and three charged mesons (either kaons or pions) in the final state is performed. The data sample used was recorded in 2011 and 2012 with the LHCb expe
riment and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$. Six decay modes are observed, among which $Lambda_{b}^{0} to pK^{-}pi^{+}pi^{-}$, $Lambda_{b}^{0} to pK^{-}K^{+}K^{-}$, $Xi_{b}^{0} to pK^{-}pi^{+}pi^{-}$ and $Xi_{b}^{0} to pK^{-} pi^{+}K^{-}$ are established for the first time. Their branching fractions (including the ratio of hadronisation fractions in the case of the $Xi_{b}^{0}$ baryon) are determined relative to the $Lambda_{b}^{0} to Lambda_{c}^{+}pi^{-}$ decay.
Using a proton-proton collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$ collected by LHCb at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, about 3800 $Xi_b^0toXi_c^+pi^-$, $Xi_c^+to pK^-pi^+$ signal decays are reconstructed. Fr
om this sample, the first measurement of the $Xi_b^0$ baryon lifetime is made, relative to that of the $Lambda_b^0$ baryon. The mass differences $M(Xi_b^0)-M(Lambda_b^0)$ and $M(Xi_c^+)-M(Lambda_c^+)$ are also measured with precision more than four times better than the current world averages. The resulting values are $frac{tau_{Xi_b^0}}{tau_{Lambda_b^0}} = 1.006pm0.018pm0.010$, $M(Xi_b^0) - M(Lambda_b^0) = 172.44pm0.39pm0.17 MeV/c^2$, $M(Xi_c^+) - M(Lambda_c^+) = 181.51pm0.14pm0.10 MeV/c^2$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The relative rate of $Xi_b^0$ to $Lambda_b^0$ baryon production is measured to be $frac{f_{Xi_b^0}}{f_{Lambda_b^0}}frac{{cal{B}}(Xi_b^0toXi_c^+pi^-)}{{cal{B}}(Lambda_b^0toLambda_c^+pi^-)}frac{{cal{B}}(Xi_c^+to pK^-pi^+)}{{cal{B}}(Lambda_c^+to pK^-pi^+)} = (1.88pm0.04pm0.03)times10^{-2}$, where the first factor is the ratio of fragmentation fractions, $btoXi_b^0$ relative to $btoLambda_b^0$. Relative production rates as functions of transverse momentum and pseudorapidity are also presented.
The decays $ Lambda_b^0 to psi(2S)pK^-$ and $ Lambda_b^0 to J/psi pi^+ pi^- pK^-$ are observed in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3fb$^{-1}$, collected in proton-proton collisions at 7 and 8TeV centre-of-mass energies by th
e LHCb detector. The $psi(2S)$ mesons are reconstructed through the decay modes $psi(2S)tomu^+mu^-$ and $psi(2S)to J/psipi^+pi^-$. The branching fractions relative to that of $ Lambda_b^0 to J/psi pK^-$ are measured to be begin{eqnarray*} frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to psi(2S) pK^-)} {mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to J/psi pK^-)} & = & (20.70pm 0.76pm 0.46pm 0.37)times10^{-2} ,, frac{mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to J/psi pi^+ pi^- pK^-)} {mathcal{B}(Lambda_b^0 to J/psi pK^-)} & = & (20.86pm 0.96pm 1.34)times10^{-2} ,, end{eqnarray*} where the first uncertainties are statistical, the second are systematic and the third is related to the knowledge of $J/psi$ and $psi(2S)$ branching fractions. The mass of the $Lambda_b^0$ baryon is measured to be $$ M(Lambda_b^0) = 5619.65 pm 0.17 pm 0.17mathrm{MeV}/c^2,$$ where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic.
