  ## Abstract
  A search for the rare two-body decays b  D and b  D is performed with proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1/(6 fb), collected by the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The decay b  D is seen with a statistical significance of 5.5 standard deviations, and constitutes the discovery for this decay.

  The branching fraction, measured using the b  Dp decay for normalization, is 
  (b  D) = (9.9  2.3  1.6  1.1) x 1e-6, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and external, respectively.
  An excess of b  D candidates w.r.t. the background is observed with a statistical significance of 1.8 standard deviations and is used to estimate the upper limit f(b) / f(b) x B(b  D) / f(b  D) < 0.5 (CL = 95%), where f(b) / f(b) is the ratio of the fragmentation fractions of b-quarks into b and b baryons.
