Study of the X±(5568 ) state with semileptonic decays of the Bs0 meson
Abstract
We present a study of the X±(5568 ) using semileptonic decays of the Bs0 meson using the full run II integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb-1 in proton-antiproton collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We report evidence for a narrow structure, X±(5568 ), in the decay sequence X±(5568 )→Bs0π± where Bs0→μ∓Ds±X , Ds±→ϕ π± which is consistent with the previous measurement by the D0 Collaboration in the hadronic decay mode, X±(5568 )→Bs0π± where Bs0→J /ψ ϕ . The mass and width of this state are measured using a combined fit of the hadronic and semileptonic data, yielding m =5566.9-3.1+3.2(stat)-1.2 +0.6(syst ) MeV /c2 , Γ =18.6-6.1+7.9(stat)-3.8 +3.5(syst ) MeV /c2 with a significance of 6.7 σ .
