Abstract

The first measurement of decay-time-dependent CP asymmetries in the decay B⁰_s → J/ψK⁰_S and an updated measurement of the ratio of branching fractions ℬ(B⁰_s → J/ψK⁰_S)/ℬ(B⁰ → J/ψK⁰_S) are presented. The results are obtained using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb⁻¹ of proton-proton collisions recorded with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The results on the CP asymmetries are A_∆Γ(B⁰_s → J/ψK⁰_S) = 0.49 ±^0.77 _0.65(stat) ± 0.06(syst), C_dir(B⁰_s → J/ψK⁰_S) = −0.28 ± 0.41(stat) ± 0.08(syst), S_mix(B⁰_s → J/ψK⁰_S) = −0.08 ± 0.40(stat) ± 0.08(syst). The ratio B(B⁰_s → J/ψK⁰_S)/B(B⁰ → J/ψK⁰_S) is measured to be 0.0431 ± 0.0017(stat) ± 0.0012(syst) ± 0.0025(f_s/f_d), where the last uncertainty is due to the knowledge of the B⁰_s and B⁰ production fractions.
