18:00:    Theory: Angular analysis of Bs -> J/ and related decays, Amol Dighe (CERN), (30 min.+10 min. discussion)

Friday, February 25th, 10:30-11:40 h: Bs width difference (ctd.)

10:30:   BTeV: Measuring Bs via mixing, Robert Kutschke (Fermilab), (30 min.+10 min. discussion)
11:10:   D0: Measurement of MBs using Bs -> J/K*, William D. Shephard (Notre Dame), (20 min.+10 min. discussion)

Notice: We have shifted the lunch break earlier and return 30 minutes earlier than the other working groups for the afternoon session. Hence we bypass the long waiting line in the canteen.
 

Friday, February 25th, 13:30-15:30 h: General discussion and report outline

We want to prepare the outline of our chapter in the working group report. The goal is to set up the section titles and to assign responsibilities to get these sections written. This is a chance to point out further interesting topics and to discuss the remaining physics questions.
 

Saturday, February 26th, 9:00-12:30 h: Overflow session

We can use this session to continue drafting the report chapter.
