Abstract: A study of CP violation in B0s→J/ψϕ(1020) decays is presented, based on the data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The measurement is based on a data sample of roughly 491 000 reconstructed signal events corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 96.5 fb−1, collected in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV in 2017-2018. A time- and flavor-dependent angular analysis of the μ+μ−K+K− final state is performed to extract the values of the CP-violating phase ϕs, the decay width difference (ΔΓs), and absolute mass difference (Δms) between the light and heavy B0s mass eigenstates, their average decay width Γs, and the direct CP violation parameter |λ|. The analysis utilizes a pioneering inclusive flavor tagging framework based on state-of-the-art machine learning techniques, achieving exceptional performance by exploiting both opposite-side and same-side information. The measurement yields ϕs=−73 ± 23 (stat) ± 7 (syst) mrad, ΔΓs= 0.0761 ± 0.0043 (stat) ± 0.0019 (syst) ps−1, Δms= 17.757 ± 0.035 (stat) ± 0.017 (syst) ℏps−1, Γs= 0.6613 ± 0.0015 (stat) ± 0.0028 (syst) ps−1, and |λ|= 1.011 ± 0.014 (stat) ± 0.012 (syst). These results exhibit a level of precision on par with the most precise single measurements to date and agree with the standard model predictions. A combination with the previous CMS results obtained at 8 TeV is also performed, yielding ϕs=−74 ± 23 mrad and ΔΓs= 0.0780 ± 0.0045 ps−1. The weak phase ϕs is found different from zero by 3.2 standard deviations, indicating evidences for CP violation in B0s→J/ψK+K− decays. | ||

Summary |
The CP violating phase ϕs is measured by analyzing a total of 491 270 ± 950 B0s→J/ψϕ(1020)→μ+μ−K+K− signal events, recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at √s= 13 TeV, representing an integrated luminosity of 96.5 fb−1. The study employs an innovative inclusive flavor tagging framework that relies on cutting-edge machine learning methods. This novel framework achieves excellent performance by leveraging information from both opposite-side and same-side techniques, corresponding to a tagging power of ≈5.6%. The CPV phase ϕs is measured to be −73 ± 23 (stat) ± 7 (syst) mrad. In addition, the decay width and absolute mass differences ΔΓs and Δms between the light and heavy B0s mass eigenstates, their average decay width Γs, and the direct CP violation parameter |λ|, have been measured. All measured values are in agreement with their theoretical predictions and world-average values. The results presented in this Note are combined our previous measurement at √s= 8 TeV [11], yielding ϕs=−74 ± 23 mrad, consistent with the SM prediction and indicating evidences for CPV in B0s→J/ψK+K−. The combined results superseed those from the previous CMS measurements and are comparable in precision to the world's most precise single measurements, reported by the LHCb Collaboration [17]. |
