Study of the ${X^\pm(5568)}$ state with semileptonic decays of the ${B_s^0}$ meson

Published 29 Dec 2017 in hep-ex | (1712.10176v2)

Abstract: We present a study of the $X\pm(5568)$ using semileptonic decays of the $B_s0$ 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, $X\pm(5568)$, in the decay sequence $X\pm(5568) \to B_s0 \pi\pm$ where $B_s0 \rightarrow \mu\mp D_s\pm \, \mathrm{X}$, $D_s\pm \rightarrow \phi \pi{\pm}$ which is consistent with the previous measurement by the D0 collaboration in the hadronic decay mode, $X\pm(5568) \to B0_s \pi\pm$ where $B0_s \to J/\psi\phi$. The mass and width of this state are measured using a combined fit of the hadronic and semileptonic data, yielding $m = 5566.9 {+3.2}_{-3.1} \thinspace {\rm (stat)} {+0.6}_{-1.2} {\rm \thinspace (syst)}$\,MeV/$c2$, $\Gamma = 18.6 {+7.9}_{-6.1} {\rm \thinspace (stat)} {+3.5}_{-3.8} {\rm \thinspace (syst)} $\,MeV/$c2$ with a significance of 6.7$\,\sigma$.
