Measurement of the effective B0s→K+K− lifetime Garrido Beltrán, Lluís Graciani Díaz, Ricardo Graugés Pous, Eugeni LHCb Collaboration Física de partícules Mesons (Física nuclear) Experiments Gran Col·lisionador d'Hadrons Particle physics Mesons (Nuclear physics) Experiments Large Hadron Collider (France and Switzerland) A precise determination of the effective B0 s → K + K − lifetime can be used to constrain contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model in the B0 s meson system. Conventional approaches select B meson decay products that are significantly displaced from the B meson production vertex. As a consequence, B mesons with low decay times are suppressed, introducing a bias to the decay time spectrum which must be corrected. This analysis uses a technique that explicitly avoids a lifetime bias by using a neural network based trigger and event selection. Using 1.0 fb−1 of data recorded by the LHCb experiment, the effective B0 s → K + K − lifetime is measured as 1.455 ± 0.046 (stat.) ± 0.006 (syst.) ps. © 2012 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V.
