Measurement of the CP-violating phase $\phi_s$ in $\overline{B}^0_s\rightarrow J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$ decays

The mixing-induced CP-violating phase $\phi_s$ in ${B}^0_s$ and $\overline{B}^0_s$ decays is measured using the $J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$ final state in data, taken from 3 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, collected with the LHCb detector in 7 and 8 TeV centre-of-mass $pp$ collisions at the LHC. A time-dependent flavour-tagged amplitude analysis, allowing for direct CP violation, yields a value for the phase $\phi_s=70\pm 68\pm 8$ mrad. This result is consistent with the Standard Model expectation and previous measurements
