Measurement of mixing-induced CP violation in B0s decays is of prime importance in probing new physics. So far only the channel B0s to J/ψφ has been used.

Abstract

Measurement of mixing-induced CP violation in B0s decays is of prime importance in probing new physics. So far only the channel B0s to J/ψφ has been used. Here we report on a measurement using an LHCb data sample of 0.41 fb−1, in the CP odd eigenstate J/ψ f0(980), where f0(980) to π+π−. A timedependent fit of the data with the B0s lifetime and the difference in widths of the heavy and light eigenstates constrained to the values obtained from B0s to J/ψφ yields a value of the CP violating phase of −0.44±0.44±0.02 rad, consistent with the Standard Model expectation.
