Resumen
The first observation of the decay B s 0→K *0K̄ *0 is reported using 35 pb -1 of data collected by LHCb in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. A total of 49.8±7.5 Bs0→(K +π -)(K -π +) events are observed within ±50 MeV/c 2 of the B s 0 mass and 746 MeV/c 2<m Kπ<1046 MeV/c 2, mostly coming from a resonant B s 0→K *0K̄ *0 signal. The branching fraction and the CP-averaged K *0 longitudinal polarization fraction are measured to be B(B s 0→K *0K̄ *0)=(2.81±0.46(stat.)±0.45(syst.)±0.34(f s/f d))×10 -5 and f L=0.31±0.12(stat.)±0.04(syst.).
