{"arxiv_id":"1207.1769","title":"Measurement of the semileptonic charge asymmetry using Bs^0 -> D_s mu X decays","abstract":"We present a measurement of the time-integrated flavor-specific semileptonic charge asymmetry in the decays of Bs mesons that have undergone flavor mixing, a^s_ls, using B_s^0 (barB_s^0) -> D_s^-/+ mu^+/- X decays, with D_s^-/+ -> phi pi^-/+ and phi K^+ K^-, using 10.4 fb^-1 of proton-antiproton collisions collected by the D0 detector during Run II at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. A fit to the difference between the time-integrated D_s^-$ and D_s^+ mass distributions of the B_s^0 and barB^0_s candidates yields the flavor-specific asymmetry a^s_ls = [-1.12 pm 0.74 (stat) +/-0.17 (syst)]% which is the most precise measurement and in agreement with the standard model prediction.","primary_cat":"hep-ex","cross_cats":[],"submitted_at":"2012-07-07T07:12:52+00:00","latest_version":3,"source":"arxiv","source_label":"arXiv","source_url":null,"has_pdf":true,"has_source":false,"verdict":null,"confidence":null,"one_line_summary":null,"novelty_score":null,"correctness_risk":null,"formal_verification":null,"upvotes":0,"downvotes":0,"pith_score":0,"inbound_count":10,"_links":{"html":"https://pith.science/paper/1207.1769","verdict":"/api/v1/verdicts/1207.1769"}}
