The CP-violating asymmetry a sl s is studied using semileptonic decays of B s 0 and B¯ s 0
mesons produced in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC, exploiting
a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb− 1. The reconstructed final
states are D s±μ∓, with the D s±particle decaying in the ϕ π±mode. The D s±μ∓ yields are
summed over B¯ s 0 and B s 0 initial states, and integrated with respect to decay time. Data-
driven methods are used to measure efficiency ratios. We obtain a sl s …

We obtain a sl s=(− 0.06±0.50±0.36)%, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.
