Accuracy on |Vtd| is limited to ~15 % due to theoretical uncertainties.
Can determine |Vts|/|Vtd| with ~5 % theoretical uncertainty.

Due to the size of the CKM matrix elements: ms >> md

How to know if an oscillation
occurred?
10
Ideal oscillation
11
Oscillation in an experiment
ms = 14 ps–1
resolution of t is very important
12
Oscillation?
ms = 24 ps–1

d = ct , = p/m
proper time resolution

Extracting information on ms from data
How to extract the oscillation frequency ms from the measurements Max. Likelihood method (for parameter estimation)
was found to have several disadvantages– needs lots of MC
– sensitivity of analysis not easy to define or estimate
– combination of several analyses is difficult ln L w.r.t. minimum or infinity? (different results)
Amplitude method invented by H.G. Moser from ALEPH
1 + 1cos (mst) 1 + Acos (mst)

A limit may be placed in regions of ms where amplitudes of unityare excluded (at 95% C.L.).
21
md – measurement: CDF@Tevatron
At each value of ms in the interesting rangean amplitude is measured, where an amplitude of unity indicates a successful observation of oscillation with that frequency.

Conclusions
Clean measurement of ms serves as input to fit Bs
0 J/ determination of s (among other parameters)
Already with 10 fb–1 Atlas is capable to achieve the sensitivity that is obtained by the SM-fit to all available data today
The analysis is also sensitive in the SUSY regime
