Abstract: (Elsevier)
First observation of the decay Bs0→D¯0ϕ is reported using pp collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb −1 , collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV . The significance of the signal is 6.5 standard deviations. The branching fraction is measured relative to that of the decay Bs0→D¯0K¯⁎0 to be B(Bs0→D¯0ϕ)B(Bs0→D¯0K¯⁎0)=0.069±0.013 (stat)±0.007 (syst). The first measurement of the ratio of branching fractions for the decays Bs0→D¯0K¯⁎0 and B0→D¯0K⁎0 is found to be B(Bs0→D¯0K¯⁎0)B(B0→D¯0K⁎0)=7.8±0.7 (stat)±0.3 (syst)±0.6 (fs/fd), where the last uncertainty is due to the ratio of the Bs0 and B0 fragmentation fractions.
