Search for Violation of CPT and Lorentz invariance in Bs0 meson oscillations

Abstract

We present the first search for CPT-violating effects in the mixing of Bs0 mesons using the full Run II data set with an integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb-1 of proton-antiproton collisions collected using the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We measure the CPT-violating asymmetry in the decay Bs0 μ Ds as a function of celestial direction and sidereal phase. We find no evidence for CPT-violating effects and place limits on the direction and magnitude of flavor-dependent CPT- and Lorentz-invariance violating coupling coefficients. We find 95\% confidence intervals of a < 1.2 × 10-12 GeV and (-0.8 < aT - 0.396 aZ < 3.9) × 10-13 GeV.
