Abstract

Measurements of the effective lifetimes in the Bs0→K+K-,B0K +π- and Bs0→π+K- decays are presented using 1.0 fb -1 of pp collision data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV by the LHCb experiment. The analysis uses a data-driven approach to correct for the decay time acceptance. The measured effective lifetimes areτBs0→K+K-=1.407±0.016(stat)±0.007(syst) ps,τB0→K+π-=1.524±0.011(stat)±0.004(syst) ps,τBs0→π+K-=1.60±0.06(stat)±0.01(syst) ps. This is the most precise determination to date of the effective lifetime in the Bs0→K+K- decay and provides constraints on contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model to the Bs0 mixing phase and the width difference δΓs. © 2014 The Authors.
