Importance of the B 0s →μ+μ- branching fractionbranching fraction

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1971-1996)

Summary

We discuss the B 0s →μ+μ- decay channel, which is sensitive to deviations from the standard model. We also consider the B 0s mixing information that could be obtained from these decays in the framework of the standard model. Finally, we comment on the experimental difficulties of observing the B 0s →μ+μ- channel.
