We present the results of a search for the flavor changing neutral current decay B⁰_susing 6.1 fb^-1 of pp⁻ collisions at collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The observed number of B⁰_scandidates is consistent with background expectations. The resulting upper limit on the branching fraction is B (B⁰_s → μ⁺μ⁻) < 5.1 x 10^-8 at the 95% C.L. This limit is a factor of 2.4 better than that of the previous D0 analysis and the best limit to date.
