$B_s^0 \to D_s^-a_1^+(D_s^- \to ϕπ^-, D_s^- \to K^{*0}K^-)$ decay channel in the ATLAS $B

2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/47697It is shown, using a track-level simulation, that the use of the $D_s^- \to K^{*0}K^-$ decay channel for $D_s^-$ reconstruction, in additioon with the previously studied $D_s^- \to ϕπ^-$ mode, enables two fold gain in the ATLAS $B_s^0$-mixing signal statistics through $B_s^0 \to D_s^-a_1$ $B_s^0$-decay channel. A new modification of the amplitude fit method is suggested for the $x_s$ determination. Some general aspects of the $B_s^0$-mixing phenomenon is illustrated by pictures of Casimir Malevich, Maurits Cornelis Escher and Salvador Dali.23 pages, LaTex, 7 figures and 4 picturesHigh Energy Physics - Phenomenology$B_s^0 \to D_s^-a_1^+(D_s^- \to ϕπ^-, D_s^- \to K^{*0}K^-)$ decay channel in the ATLAS $B_s^0$-mixing studiestext
