Measurement of the CP violating phase ϕs in B¯s0→J/ψf0(980)

The decay Bs -> J/\psi K+ K- is investigated using 0.16/fb of data collected with the LHCb detector using 7 TeV pp collisions. Although the J/\psi \phi\ channel is well known, final states at higher K+K- masses have not previously been studied. In the K+K- mass spectrum we observe a significant signal in the f'2(1525) region as well as a non-resonant component. After subtracting the non-resonant component, we find B(Bs->J/\psi f'_2(1525))/B(Bs->J/\psi \phi)=(26.4 +/- 2.7 +/- 2.4)%.
