Abstract

Latest LHCb measurements of CPCP violation in the interference between mixing and decay are presented based on pppp collision data collected during LHC Run I, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0fb13.0\, {\rm fb}^{-1}. Approximately 2700027\, 000 Bs0J/ψπ+πB_s^0\to J/\psi \pi^+\pi^- signal events are used to make what is at the moment the most precise single measurement of the CPCP-violating phase in bccˉsb\to c\bar{c}s transitions, ϕsccˉs=0.070±0.068(stat.)±0.008(syst.)\phi_s^{c\bar{c}s}=0.070\pm0.068{\rm (stat.)}\pm0.008{\rm (syst.)} rad. The most accurate measurement of the CPCP-violating phase in bssˉsb\to s\bar{s}s transitions, ϕsssˉs\phi_s^{s\bar{s}s}, is found from approximately 40004\, 000 Bs0ϕϕB_s^0\to \phi\phi signal events to be ϕsssˉs=0.17±(stat.)0.15±0.03(syst.)\phi_s^{s\bar{s}s}=-0.17\pm{\rm (stat.)}0.15\pm0.03{\rm (syst.)} rad.
