We report on a measurement of the Λ + c to D 0 production ratio in peripheral PbPb collisions at √ s NN = 5.02 TeV with the LHCb detector in the forward rapidity regionand in the centrality range of about 65-90%.The results show no significant dependence on p T , y or the mean number of participating nucleons.They are also consistent with similar measurements obtained by the LHCb collaboration in pPb and Pbp collisions at √ s NN = 5.02 TeV.The data agree well with predictions from PYTHIA in pp collisions at √ s = 5 TeV but are in tension with predictions of the Statistical Hadronization model.
