Luminosity measurement with the LHCb RICH detectors in Run 3

The LHCb Ring-Imaging Cherenkov detectors are built to provide charged hadron identification over a large range of momentum. The upgraded detectors are also capable of providing an independent measurement of the luminosity for the LHCb experiment during LHC Run 3. The modelling of the opto-electronics chain, the application of the powering strategy during operations, the calibration procedures and the proof of principle of a novel technique for luminosity determination are presented. In addition, the preliminary precision achieved during the 2023 data-taking year for real-time and offline luminosity measurements is reported.

(Semi-)leptonic decays of D Mesons at BESIII

Leptonic and semi-leptonic $D$ decays at BESIII contribute the most precise experimental measurement of $|V_{cs(d)}|$ and form factor $f_{D_{(s)}}$ in the world based on 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ and 3.19 fb$^{-1}$ data taken at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s} = 3.773$ and 4.180~GeV, respectively. The largest samples at the mass threshold of the charmed hardons $D_{(s)}$ also provide chances to extract form factors of some semi-electronic decays for the first time and together with the semi-muonic decays we could understand lepton flavour universality better.
