Abstract
A search for fully reconstructed Λb0 beauty baryons is performed using about 3 million Z decays collected with the DELPHI detector at LEP. The analysis relies on the combined use of the accurate tracking and of the hadron identification capabilities of DELPHI. A total of four events has been found, three in the Λc+π− channel and one in the Λc+a1− channel over a small background. The Λb0 beauty baryon mass is measured to be (5668 ± 16 (stat.) ± 8 (syst.)) MeV/c2.
