Measurement of CP asymmetry in $B^0_s \rightarrow D^{\mp}_s K^{\pm}$ decays (1407.6127v2)
Abstract: We report on measurements of the time-dependent CP violating observables in $B0_s\rightarrow D{\mp}_s K{\pm}$ decays using a dataset corresponding to 1.0 fb${-1}$ of pp collisions recorded with the LHCb detector. We find the CP violating observables $C_f=0.53\pm0.25\pm0.04$, $A{\Delta\Gamma}_f=0.37\pm0.42\pm0.20$, $A{\Delta\Gamma}_{\bar{f}}=0.20\pm0.41\pm0.20$, $S_f=-1.09\pm0.33\pm0.08$, $S_{\bar{f}}=-0.36\pm0.34\pm0.08$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. Using these observables together with a recent measurement of the $B0_s$ mixing phase $-2\beta_s$ leads to the first extraction of the CKM angle $\gamma$ from $B0_s \rightarrow D{\mp}_s K{\pm}$ decays, finding $\gamma$ = (115$_{-43}{+28}$)$\circ$ modulo 180$\circ$ at 68% CL, where the error contains both statistical and systematic uncertainties.
