TLDR
In this article, an angular analysis and a measurement of the differential branching fraction of the decay B0s→ϕμ+μ− are presented, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0fb−1 of pp collisions recorded by the LHCb experiment at s√=7 and 8TeV.
Abstract
An angular analysis and a measurement of the differential branching fraction of the decay B0s→ϕμ+μ− are presented, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0fb−1 of pp collisions recorded by the LHCb experiment at s√=7 and 8TeV. Measurements are reported as a function of q2, the square of the dimuon invariant mass and results of the angular analysis are found to be consistent with the Standard Model. In the range 1<q2<6GeV2/c4, where precise theoretical calculations are available, the differential branching fraction is found to be 3.5σ below the Standard Model predictions.
