Here we present a measurement of Delta m(s) using B-s(0) -> D-s(-)pi(+) decays produced in proton-proton collisions collected with the LHCb detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The oscillation frequency is found to be Delta m(s) = 17.7683 +/- 0.0051 +/- 0.0032 ps(-1), where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This measurement improves on the current Delta m(s) precision by a factor of two. We combine this result with previous LHCb measurements to determine Delta m(s) = 17.7656 +/- 0.0057 ps(-1), which is the legacy measurement of the original LHCb detector.", optnote="WOS:000739810100002", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5075), last updated on Mon, 19 Dec 2022 07:57:53 +0000", issn="1745-2473", doi="10.1038/s41567-021-01394-x", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.04421", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1038/s41567-021-01394-x", language="English" }
