Résumé

We observe evidence for D0-D̄0 mixing by measuring the difference in the apparent lifetime when a D0 meson decays to the CP eigenstates K+K- and π+π- and when it decays to the final state K-π+. We find the relative difference of the lifetimes yCP to be [1.31±0.32(stat)±0.25(syst)] %, 3.2 standard deviations from zero. We also search for a CP asymmetry between D0 and D̄0 decays; no evidence for CP violation is found. These results are based on 540fb-1 of data recorded by the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider. © 2007 The American Physical Society.

Time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in b→sq q transitions

Tagir Aushev, Aurelio Bay, Sun Hee Kim, Sanjeev Kumar, Jing Li, Olivier Schneider, Mingkui Wang, Lei Zhang

We present new measurements of CP-violation parameters in B0→K0, K+K-KS0, f0(980)KS0, η′KS0, ωKS0, and KS0π0 decays based on a sample of 275×106 BB̄ pairs collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB energy-asymmetric e+e- collider. One neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in one of the specified decay channels, and the flavor of the accompanying B meson is identified from its decay products. CP-violation parameters for each of the decay modes are obtained from the asymmetries in the distributions of the proper-time intervals between the two B decays. The combined result for the B0→K0, K+K-KS0, f0(980)KS0, η′KS0, ωKS0, KS0π0, and previously reported KS0KS0KS0 decays differs from the SM expectation by 2.4 standard deviations. © 2005 The American Physical Society.

Study of B± → D*CPK ± and DCPK± decays

Tagir Aushev, Sun Hee Kim

We report a study of the modes B± → DK ± and B± → DK± where D() decays to CP eigenstates. The data sample used contains 275 × 106 BB̄ events at the Y(4S) resonance collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB energy-asymmetric e+e- collider. The CP asymmetries obtained for DCPK are: script A sign1 = 0.06 ± 0.14(stat) ± 0.05(sys), script A sign2 = -0.12 ± 0.14(stat) ± 0.05(sys) and for DCPK: script A sign1 = -0.20 ± 0.22(stat) ± 0.04(sys), script A sign*2 = 0.13 ± 0.30(stat) ± 0.08(sys). © 2006 The American Physical Society.

Measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry in BO→KSOπOγ decays

Tagir Aushev, Aurelio Bay, Stewart Cole, Sun Hee Kim, Sanjeev Kumar, Jing Li

We present a new measurement of CP-violation parameters in B0→KS0π0γ decay based on a sample of 275×106 BB̄ pairs collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB energy-asymmetric e+e- collider. One of the B mesons is fully reconstructed in the B0→KS0π0γ decay. The flavor of the accompanying B meson is identified from its decay products. CP-violation parameters are obtained from the asymmetry in the distribution of the proper time intervals between the two B decays. We obtain SKS0π0γ=-0.58-0.38+0.46(stat)±0.11(syst) and AKS0π0γ=+0.03±0.34(stat)±0.11(syst), for the KS0π0 invariant mass covering the full range up to 1.8GeV/c2. We also measure the CP-violation parameters for the case B0→K0(→KS0π0)γ and obtain SK0γ=-0.79-0.50+0.63(stat)±0.10(syst) for AK*0γ fixed at 0. © 2005 The American Physical Society.
