Flavour oscillations and CP asymmetry in semileptonic B<sub>s</sub><sup>0</sup> decays
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The B0 s meson spontaneously transforms into its antiparticle ($\bar{B}$ 0 s ). These ‘flavour oscillations’ occur periodically with a frequency that may be measured. The oscillation frequency is related to the fundamental parameters of the electroweak interaction. Measuring the frequency provides a constraint on the electroweak quark coupling parameter Vts and improves the constraint on Vtd. Furthermore, the amplitude of the oscillation process may be slightly different in B0 s and $\bar{B}$ 0 s mesons due to CP violating nature of the weak interaction. This ‘asymmetry’ is expected to be small (aSM,s fs = (2.06 ± 0.57) x 10 5), but may be enhanced (as fs ≅ O(1%)) by new sources of CP violation. This thesis describes a search for B0 s flavour oscillations and charge asymmetry in the B0 s → D- s μ+vμ X (D- s → K* 0K- ) decay mode using 5.0 fb -1 of D0 data. A lower limit is placed on the oscillation frequency, Δms > 9.9 ps -1 with an expected sensitivity to oscillations below 14.8 ps -1. The charge asymmetry is measured to be as fs 0.018 ± 0.025(stat) ± 0.002(syst). A combination of these measurements with other decay modes is also presented.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
