The calculation of QCD corrections to the width difference Delta Gamma in the B_s meson system is presented. The next-to-leading order corrections reduce the dependence on the renormalization scale significantly and allow for a meaningful…
We compute the QCD corrections to the decay rate difference in the $B_s-\bar B_s$ system, $\Delta\Gamma_{B_s}$, in the next-to-leading logarithmic approximation using the heavy quark expansion approach. Going beyond leading order in QCD is…
We compute next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to the decay width difference of mass eigenstates and the charge-parity (CP) asymmetry $a_{\rm fs}$ in flavour-specific decays of neutral $B$ mesons. We include both current-current and…
The present status of the theoretical estimates of beauty hadron lifetime ratios and of width differences and CP-violation parameters in $B_d$ and $B_s$ systems is reviewed. In the last two years accurate lattice calculations and…
We discuss the calculation of the width difference $\Delta\Gamma_{B_s}$ between the $B_s$ mass eigenstates to next-to-leading order in the heavy quark expansion. $1/m_b$-corrections are estimated to reduce the leading order result by…
The Bs meson is an interesting particle to study because a sizable mixing induced CP violation in the Bs-Bsbar system would be an indication for physics beyond the Standard Model. In this paper we present a measurement of the lifetime…
We study the impact of the Randall-Sundrum setup on the width difference $\Delta\Gamma_s$ and the CP-violating phase $\phi_s$ in the $\bar B_s^0$-$B_s^0$ system. Our calculations are performed in the general framework of an effective…
We compute next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the CP asymmetry a_{fs} = Im(Gamma_{12}/M_{12}) in flavour-specific B_{d,s} decays such as B_d->X l nu or B_s->D^-_s pi^+. The corrections reduce the uncertainties associated with the…
B-B-bar mixing involves three physical parameters: the magnitudes of the off-diagonal elements of the mass and decay matrices and their relative phase. They are related to the mass and width differences between the mass eigenstates and to…
We present a precise measurement of the standard model CP-violation parameter sin(2phi1), the direct CP violation parameter |lambda|, the lifetimes of charged and neutral B mesons and their ratio, and the B0-B0bar mixing parameter Delta m_d…
We propose a new way for determining the CP violation angle $\gamma$ without any hadronic uncertainty. The suggested method is to use the two triangles formed by the decay amplitudes of $B^\pm\to (D^0,\bar D^0,D_{CP}^0)…
We report a new sensitive search for CPT violation, which includes improved measurements of the CPT-violating parameter z and the total decay-width difference normalized to the averaged width DeltaGamma_d/Gamma_d of the two Bd mass…
In this talk we present a calculation of the dacay rate difference in the neutral $B_s-\bar{B}_s$ system, $\Delta \Gamma_{B_s}$, in next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD. We find a sizeable decrease compared to leading-order (LO) estimates: $…
The measurement of CP asymmetries in charged B meson decays might provide the first demonstration of CP violation outside the K system. Among the usual three CP-odd phases $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$, the phase $\gamma$ seems to be the…
A study of indirect CP violation in $D^0$ mesons through the determination of the parameter $A_\Gamma$ is presented using a data sample of $pp$ collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb…
We estimate \Delta Gamma_d/\Gamma_d, including 1/m_b contributions and part of the next-to-leading order QCD corrections, and find it to be around 0.3%. We show the methods to measure \Delta Gamma_d/\Gamma_d by using at least two different…
The CDF collaboration presents an updated measurement of the CP-violating parameter beta_s and of the decay width difference Delta Gamma_s using approximately 6500 Bs to J/Psi Phi decays collected by the dimuon trigger and reconstructed in…
Next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the width difference Delta Gamma in the B_s-meson system are presented. I further discuss how Delta Gamma can be used to detect new physics.
We estimate the decay width difference $\Delta Gamma_d / \Gamma_d$ in the $B_d$ system including $1/m_b$ contributions and next-to-leading order QCD corrections, and find it to be around 0.3%. We explicitly show that the time measurements…
A study of mixing and indirect CP violation in D0 mesons through the determination of the parameters y_CP and A_\Gamma\ is presented. The parameter y_CP is the deviation from unity of the ratio of effective lifetimes measured in D0 decays…
