Prospects for Measuring Bs->mu mu with the CMS Detector
Abstract
The flavor-changing neutral current decay Bs->mu mu is highly suppressed in the standard model, but its branching fraction of 3.4*10-9 could be significantly enhanced through contributions from new physics. At the LHC, this rare decay could be observed for the first time. In this contribution, the prospects for measuring Bs->mu mu with the CMS detector are presented. In particular, some aspects of the experimental setup, the first and high level trigger selections, and the offline analysis are discussed.
