Measurement of B_s mixing phase at CDF

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2019-08-13 v1

Abstract

We present improved bounds on the CP-violating phase \beta_s^{\Jpsi\phi} and on the decay-width difference \Delta\Gamma of the neutral B_s^0 meson system obtained by the CDF experiment at the Tevatron collider . We use 6500 B_s^0 --> J/psi phi decays collected by the dimuon trigger and reconstructed in a sample corresponding to integrated luminosity of 5.2 fb-1. Besides exploiting a two-fold increase in statistics with respect to the previous measurement, several improvements have been introduced in the analysis including a fully data-driven flavour-tagging calibration and proper treatment of possible S-wave contributions.
