Analysis of experimental data from 𝑝𝑝 collisions for observation of the decays 𝛬$^0_𝑏$ β†’ 𝐷$^+$π‘πœ‹$^βˆ’$πœ‹$^βˆ’$ and 𝛬$^0_𝑏$ β†’ 𝐷$*^+$π‘πœ‹$^βˆ’$πœ‹$^βˆ’$ and measurement of their brancing fractions normalized to the one of the 𝛬𝛬$^0_𝑏$ β†’ 𝛬$^+$ 𝑐 πœ‹$^+$πœ‹$^βˆ’$πœ‹$^βˆ’$ decay is discussed. Contributions to the invariant 𝐷+π‘πœ‹$^βˆ’$πœ‹$6βˆ’$ mass spectrum near the 𝛬$^0_𝑏$ mass are described. A signal model is suggested for each of them. Shapes of contributions of the decays with extra neutral particles production are calculated. Systematic uncertainties associated with the suggested methods are studied.
