Abstract

The transverse momentum (p_T) spectra of inclusively produced Λ_c ⁺ baryons are measured via the exclusive decay channel Λ_c ⁺→pK⁻π⁺ using the CMS detector at the LHC. Spectra are measured as a function of transverse momentum in proton-proton (pp) and lead-lead (PbPb) collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV. The measurement is performed within the Λ_c ⁺ rapidity interval |y|<1 in the p_T range of 5–20GeV/c in pp and 10–20GeV/c in PbPb collisions. The observed yields of Λ_c ⁺ for p_T of 10–20GeV/c suggest a suppression in central PbPb collisions compared to pp collisions scaled by the number of nucleon-nucleon (NN) interactions. The Λ_c ⁺/D⁰ production ratio in pp collisions is compared to theoretical models. In PbPb collisions, this ratio is consistent with the result from pp collisions in their common p_T range.
