Abstract

We perform a study of the Standard Model (SM) fit to the mixing quantities ∆MB_s, and ∆TB_s/∆MB_s in order to bound contributions of New Physics to B_s mixing. We then use this to explore the branching fraction of B_s → μ+μ− in certain models of New Physics (NP). In most cases, this constrains NP amplitudes for B_s → μ+μ− to lie below the SM component.
