The Bs oscillation amplitude analysis
G. Boix, D. Abbaneo
Abstract
The properties of the amplitude method for oscillation analyses are studied in detail. The world combination of measured amplitudes is converted into a likelihood profile as a function of oscillation frequency. A procedure is proposed to estimate the probability that the minimum observed is due to a statistical fluctuation. This method, applied to the data available at the time of 1999 Winter Conferences, gives 1 - CL ≈ 0.03 .
