Abstract

In 451 000 hadronic Z0 decays, recorded with the ALEPH detector at LEP, the yields of Λℓ- and Λℓ+ combinations are measured. Semileptonic decays of b baryons result in a signal of 122± 18 (stat.)-23 +22 (syst.) Λℓ- combinations. From a fit to the impact parameter distributions of the leptons in the Λℓ- sample, the lifetime of b baryons is measured to be 1.12-0.29 +0.32 (stat.) ±0.16 (syst.) ps.
