Abstract

We report results from a search for the decay Bs0→μ+μ- using 1.3fb-1 of pp̄ collisions at s=1.96TeV collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We find two candidate events, consistent with the expected background of 1.24±0.99, and set an upper limit on the branching fraction of B(Bs0→μ+μ-)<1.2×10-7 at the 95% C.L. © 2007 The American Physical Society.
