Abstract
A measurement of the B[0 over s] → J/ψϕ decay parameters, updated to include flavor tagging is reported using 4.9 fb[superscript −1] of integrated luminosity collected by the ATLAS detector from √s = 7 TeV pp collisions recorded in 2011 at the LHC. The values measured for the physical parameters are
ϕ[subscript s] 0.12 ± 0.25(stat) ± 0.05(syst) rad ΔΓ[subscript s] 0.053 ± 0.021(stat) ± 0.010(syst) ps[superscript −1] Γ[subscript s] 0.677 ± 0.007(stat) ± 0.004(syst) ps[superscript −1] |A[subscript ∥](0)|[superscript 2] 0.220 ± 0.008(stat) ± 0.009(syst) |A[subscript 0](0)|[superscript 2] 0.529 ± 0.006(stat) ± 0.012(syst) δ[subscript ⊥] = 3.89 ± 0.47(stat) ± 0.11(syst) rad
where the parameter ΔΓ[subscript s] is constrained to be positive. The S-wave contribution was measured and found to be compatible with zero. Results for ϕ[subscript s] and ΔΓ[subscript s] are also presented as 68% and 95% likelihood contours, which show agreement with the Standard Model expectations.
