Mass distributions marginalized over per-event errors
read the original abstract
We present generalizations of the Crystal-Ball function to describe mass peaks in which the per-event mass resolution is unknown and marginalized over. The presented probability density functions are tested using a series of toy-MC samples generated with Pythia and smeared with different amounts of multiple scattering and for different detector resolutions.

Observation of the charmless purely baryonic decay $\mathinner{\mathit{\Lambda}^0_b\!\to \mathit{\Lambda} p \overline{p}}$
First observation of Λ_b^0 → Λ p p-bar with 5.1σ significance and relative branching fraction (5.1 ± 1.3(stat) ± 0.3(syst)) × 10^{-2} to the reference mode Λ_b^0 → Λ K^+ K^-.

Study of the $B^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{\Lambda}_c^- K_S^0$ decay
Relative branching fraction B(B0 → Λc+ Λc- KS0)/B(B+ → Λc+ Λc- K+) measured as 0.53 ± 0.05 ± 0.05 with 3.9σ evidence for Ξc(2923)+ and Ξc(2939)+ resonances consistent with isospin partners.

Measurement of the branching fractions and longitudinal polarisations of $B^0_{(s)} \to K^{*0} \kern 0.18em \overline{\kern -0.18em K}{}^{*0}$ decays
LHCb measures f_L^d = 0.600 and f_L^s = 0.159 for B to K* Kbar* decays and reports a ratio L of 4.92 that confirms 4.4 sigma discrepancy with theory.
