Measurement of the CP-violating phase $phi_s$ in $bar{B}^{0}_{s}to D_{s}^{+}D_{s}^{-}$ decays


Abstract in English

We present a measurement of the $CP$-violating weak mixing phase $phi_s$ using the decay $bar{B}^{0}_{s}to D_{s}^{+}D_{s}^{-}$ in a data sample corresponding to $3.0$ fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected with the LHCb detector in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. An analysis of the time evolution of the system, which does not constrain $|lambda|=1$ to allow for the presence of $CP$ violation in decay, yields $phi_s = 0.02 pm 0.17$ (stat) $pm 0.02$ (syst) rad, $|lambda| = 0.91^{+0.18}_{-0.15}$ (stat) $pm0.02$ (syst). This result is consistent with the Standard Model expectation.
