Measurement of beta_s at CDF

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

The latest results for the measurement of the CP violating phase beta_s in B0s -> J/psi phi decays, from 5.2 fb-1 integrated luminosity of CDF data are presented. For the first time, this measurement includes the contribution of B0s -> J/psi K+K- or B0s -> J/psi f0 events to the signal sample, where the f0 and non-resonant K+K- are S-wave states. Additional improvements to the analysis include more than doubling the signal sample, improved selection and particle ID, and fully calibrated flavour tagging for the full dataset. Additionally, the world's most precise single measurements of the B0s lifetime, tau_s, and width difference, DeltaGamma_s are given.
