Abstract

The first precise measurement of the oscillation frequency Δms with the CDFII experiment is summarized in this talk. The measurement is performed with 1 fb-1 of data collected at the Fermilab Tevatron hadron collider. We find a signal consistent with flavour oscillations; the probability that such a signal is originated by random fluctuations is 0.2%. We measure [A. Abulencia et al. (CDF Collaboration), Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 062003 (2006)]. After a brief theoretical overview, I will describe the experimental technique and show the results of the CDF analysis and the |Vtd/Vts| value we infer from this measurement.
