 +====== TTP06-33 B_d and B_s mixing: mass and width differences and CP violation ====== 
 +  
 +  
 +   <hidden TTP06-33  B_d and B_s mixing: mass and width differences and CP violation > B-B-bar mixing involves three physical parameters: the magnitudes of the 
 + off-diagonal elements of the mass and decay matrices and their relative 
 + phase.  They are related to the mass and width differences between the 
 + mass eigenstates and to the CP asymmetry in flavour-specific decays, 
 + a_fs. Introducing a new operator basis I present new, more precise 
 + theory predictions for the width differences in the B_s and B_d systems: 
 + in the Standard Model one finds Delta Gamma_s = 0.088 +/- 0.017 ps^{-1} 
 + and Delta Gamma_d = (26.7 +5.8/-6.5) * 10^{-4} ps^{-1}.  Updates 
 + of the mass differences Delta M_d and Delta M_s and of a_{fs}^d and 
 + a_{fs}^s are also presented.  Then I discuss how various present and 
 + future measurements can be combined to constrain new physics. The 
 + extraction of a new CP phase phi_s^Delta from data on a_{fs}^s also 
 + profits from our new operator basis.  Confronting our new formulae with 
 + D0 data we find that sin phi_s^Delta deviates from zero by 2 sigma.
