Measurement of CP violating phase ${\varphi }_s$ and control of penguin pollution at LHCb

Abstract

The study of CP violation in \Bs\, oscillations is a key measurement at the LHCb experiment. In this document, we discuss the latest LHCb results on the CP-violating phase, called ${\varphi }_s$, using \BsJKK\, and \BsJpipi\, channels. To conclude on the presence of New Physics in ${\varphi }_s$, the estimation of the sub-dominant contributions from the Standard Model becomes crucial now. We outline a method to estimate the contribution of penguin diagrams in ${\varphi }_s$. Branching fractions and upper limits of \BdKshh\,($h^{{(}^{\prime })}=K,\pi )$\, modes are presented.
