Abstract
A search for baryon-number violating oscillations is performed with a sample of collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of . The baryon number at the moment of production is identified by requiring that the come from the decay of a resonance or , and the baryon number at the moment of decay is identified from the final state using the decays . No evidence of baryon-number violation is found, and an upper limit at the 95% confidence level is set on the oscillation rate of , where is the associated angular frequency.
