Measurement of the effective leptonic weak mixing angle / LHCb Collaboration
Using $pp$ collision data at $\sqrt{s}=13$~TeV, recorded by the LHCb experiment between 2016 and 2018 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $5.4$~fb$^{-1}$, the forward-backward asymmetry in the $pp \to Z/\gamma^{*} \to \mu^+\mu^-$ process is measured. The measurement is carried out in ten intervals of the difference between the muon pseudorapidities, within a fiducial region covering dimuon masses between $66$ and $116$ GeV, muon pseudorapidities between $2.0$ and $4.5$ and muon transverse momenta above $20$ GeV.

Measurement of $CP$ violation observables in $D^+\to K^-K^+\pi^+$ decays / LHCb Collaboration
A search for violation of the charge-parity ($CP$) symmetry in the $D^+\rightarrow K^-K^+\pi^+$ decay is presented, with proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fb$^{-1}$, collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the LHCb detector. A novel model-independent technique is used to compare the $D^+$ and $D^-$ phase-space distributions, with instrumental asymmetries subtracted using the $D^+{s}\rightarrow K^-K^+\pi^+$ decay as a control channel.

Study of the rare decay $J\mskip -3mu/\mskip -2mu\psi \to \mu^+\mu^-\mu^+\mu^-$ / LHCb Collaboration
The rare electromagnetic $J\mskip -3mu/\mskip -2mu\psi \to \mu^+\mu^-\mu^+\mu^-$ decay is observed with a significance greatly exceeding the discovery threshold, using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment during 2016--2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $5.4\,\text{fb}^{-1}$. The rate of this decay is measured relative to that of the $J\mskip -3mu/\mskip -2mu\psi \to \mu^+\mu^-$ mode. [...]

Observation of muonic Dalitz decays of $\chi_{b}$ mesons and precise spectroscopy of hidden-beauty states / LHCb Collaboration
The decays of the $\chi_{b1}(1P)$, $\chi_{b2}(1P)$, $\chi_{b1}(2P)$ and $\chi_{b2}(2P)$ mesons into the $\Upsilon(1S)\mu^+\mu^-$ final state are observed with a high significance using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9fb$^{-1}$. The newly observed decays together with the $\Upsilon(2S)\rightarrow \Upsilon(1S)\pi^+\pi^-$ and $\Upsilon(3S)\rightarrow \Upsilon(2S)\pi^+\pi^-$ decay modes are used for precision measurements of the mass and mass splittings for the hidden-beauty states..

Probing the nature of the $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ state using radiative decays / LHCb Collaboration
The radiative decays $\chi_{c1}(3872)\rightarrow \psi(2S)\gamma$ and $\chi_{c1}(3872)\rightarrow J/\psi\gamma$ are used to probe the nature of the $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ state using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9fb$^{-1}$. Using the $B^+ \rightarrow \chi_{c1}(3872)K^+$ decay, the $\chi_{c1}(3872)\rightarrow \psi(2S)\gamma$ process is observed for the~first time and the ratio of its partial width to that of the $\chi_{c1}(3872)\rightarrow J/\psi\gamma$ decay is measured to be $$ \frac{\Gamma_{\chi_{c1}(3872)\rightarrow \psi(2S)\gamma}} {\Gamma_{\chi_{c1}(3872)\rightarrow J\psi\gamma}} = 1.67 \pm 0.21 \pm 0.12 \pm0.04, $$ where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third is due to the uncertainties on the branching fractions of the $\psi(2S)$ and $J/\psi$ mesons.

Precision measurement of the $\Xi_b^-$ baryon lifetime / LHCb Collaboration
A sample of $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.5 fb$^{-1}$ and collected by the LHCb experiment during Run 2, is used to measure the ratio of the lifetime of the $\Xi^-_b$ baryon to that of the $\Lambda^0_b$ baryon, $r_{\tau}\equiv\tau_{\Xi^-_b}/\tau_{\Lambda^0_b}$. The value ${r_{\tau}^{\rm Run\,2}=1.076\pm0.013\pm0.006}$ is obtained, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. [...]
