Determination of the mixing-induced $C\!P$-violating phase $\phi_{s}$ and decay width difference $\Delta\Gamma_{s}$ in $\bar{b}\to\bar{c}c\bar{s}$ decays is one of the main goals of the LHCb experiment. Thanks to the precise prediction of…

The $B_c^{\pm}$ meson is observed through the decay $B_c^{\pm} \to J/\psi \pi^{\pm}$, in data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.4 fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. A signal of $108\pm15$…
New physics contributions to B_s-\bar{B}_s mixing can be parametrized by the size (r_s^2) and the phase (2\theta_s) of the total mixing amplitude relative to the Standard Model amplitude. The phase has so far been unconstrained. We first…
Measurement of the $B^0_s$ oscillation frequency via $B^0_s$ mixing analysis provides a powerful constraint on CKM matrix elements. This note briefly reviews the motivation behind these analyses and describes the various steps that go into…
