Abstract
The SLD experiment at the SLAC Linear Collider has updated three searches for the time dependence of Bs0 oscillations. One search uses events with a reconstructed Ds meson; a second search uses events with a lepton and a topologically identified charmed meson; and the third uses events in which both a secondary and tertiary vertex are distinguished. The combined analyses are sensitive to values of Δms, the oscillation frequency, up to 13.0 ps−1. A preliminary maximum likelihood analysis excludes Δms<7.6 ps−1 and 11.8<Δms<14.8 ps−1 at 95% CL. Including this data, the combined world data now imply Δms>15.0 ps−1 at 95% CL, and are not incompatible with a signal near the expected value, Δms∼15 ps−1.
