The study is done separately for both polarities of the LHCb spectrometer magnet. The results are combined for the final cross-section measurements. The total luminosity used for the analysis is 1.8 nb−1. The production cross-section ismeasured in bins of the V0 phase space. The kinematic variables used are the V0 transverse momentum pT and rapidity y. The selected range for the kinematic variables is 0 <= pT <= 2.4 GeV/c and 2.5 <= y <= 4.5 for the K0s and 0.2 <= pT <= 2.4 GeV/c and 2.5 <= y <= 4.0 for Lambda and anti-Lambda. The measurements are compared with predictions from QCD based models of multi-hadron production at high energies. date: 2018 id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00024518 ppn_swb: 165466720X own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-245182 date_accepted: 2017-12-20 advisor: HASH(0x556120e6e0f0) language: eng bibsort: AQUINESGUTINCLUSIVEV2018 full_text_status: public citation: Aquines Gutiérrez, Osvaldo (2018) Inclusive V0 Production at the LHC.
