摘要
The neutral B mesons, B-0 and B-s(0) can oscillate between their particle and antiparticle states owing to flavor-changing weak interactions. In recent years, techniques to detect these oscillations as a function of the meson's decay time have been developed. This article reviews the physics of flavor oscillations and summarizes theoretical predictions. The many observations that demonstrate the time dependence of B-0 - (B-0) over bar oscillations are presented along with a combined measurement of its frequency, Deltam(d) = 0.484 +/- 0.015ps(-1). The attempts to measure the B-s(0) oscillation frequency, both directly and indirectly, are then summarized, currently resulting in a limit of Deltam(s) > 14.6 ps(-1) (95% CL). Finally, values for the CKM elements \V-td\ = (3.6 +/- 0.4) X 10(-3) and \V-ts/V-td\ > 4.7 (95% CL) are extracted.
