Dear all,
We have a short paper to be commented by Nikhef before Tuesday 19/8. Please, give your comments by email. I will collect them latest on Tuesday and upload our comments, after a short check with you, that evening to CDS.
Best regards, Tjeerd

Dear Colleagues,
A paper is available for your comments:
Title : Precision measurement of the mass and lifetime of the $\Xi_b^-$ baryon
Journal : PRL Contact authors : Steve Blusk Reviewers : Giacomo Graziani (chair), Matt Needham EB reviewer : Patrick Koppenburg EB readers : Diego Tonelli, Ronan McNulty Analysis note : ANA-2013-065 Deadline : 19-Aug-2014 e-group : lhcb-paper-2014-048-reviewers Link : https://cds.cern.ch/record/1747836 Authors : LHCb Twiki : https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/LHCbPhysics/XibMinus2XicZeroHDecays
The following institutes are requested to make institutional comments: Faculty of Physics and Applied Computer Science, Cracow, Poland Birmingham, United Kingdom NIKHEF VU, Netherlands Ferrara, Italy KINR, Kyiv, Ukraine Roma Tor Vergata, Roma, Italy
Note that this list differs from what was announced at the time of the approval: the last-minute change was done to free institutes that had just gotten the 113 page luminosity paper from any other assignments.
Although the main body of the draft has been fully reviewed and signed off by the reviewers, a couple of 'technical' items are still missing due the very short available time between approval and the proponent leaving for a trip.
The present draft misses: paper number / author list / PRL justification / word count
Please send any comments via the CDS system. It is the responsibility of the contact authors to provide replies on all comments made. Subsequent modification to the publication are made in consultation with the reviewers and during the EB reading. Following this, there will be a final meeting of the editorial board with contact authors and reviewers present where final decisions are made. As the last step a short presentation is given to the collaboration and the paper is sent for publication.
You can find all paper and conference report drafts open for comments via the EB web-page, by clicking on Current Drafts.

Hi Tjeerd,
A few comments on this short paper:
Line 30: Bracket notation for mass splitting is a bit confusing. As it is it looks a bit liek a multipliciation. Line 31: two times "that" Line 91: What is the systematic on the lifetime related to multiple candidates? In an extreme case one coiuld keep the longest or shortest candidate only and see by how much the lifetimes are affected. Line 153-Line 156: Since the TIS / TOS samples are large I wonder by how much the observables (lifetimes/masses) are affected if splitting the sample in TIS and TOS parts. (Probably more conservative than the sys error described on lines 181 - 183).
Cheers, - Marcel
