N2  - An observation of the View the Λ\(^0_b\)→ψ(2S)Λ\(^0\) decay and a comparison of its branching fraction with that of the Λ\(^0_b\)→J/ψΛ\(^0\) decay has been made with the ATLAS detector in proton–proton collisions at \(\sqrt {s}\)=8 TeV at the LHC using an integrated luminosity of 20.6 fb\(^{-1}\). The J/ψJ/ψ and ψ(2S) mesons are reconstructed in their decays to a muon pair, while the Λ\(^0\)→pπ\(^-\) decay is exploited for the Λ\(^0\) baryon reconstruction. The Λ\(^0_b\) baryons are reconstructed with transverse momentum p\(_T\)>10 GeV pT>10 GeV and pseudorapidity |η|<2.1. The measured branching ratio of the Λ\(^0_b\)→ψ(2S)Λ\(^0\) and Λ\(^0_b\)→J/ψΛ\(^0\) decays is Γ(Λ\(^0_b\)→ψ(2S)Λ\(^0\))/Γ(Λ\(^0_b\)→J/ψΛ\(^0\))=0.501±0.033(stat)±0.019(syst), lower than the expectation from the covariant quark model.
