Abstract

The CP asymmetry parameters in the decay B0(B̄0) → J/ψπ0, were described. The measurement of the CP asymmetry parameters was based on a 140 fb-1 data sample, which was accumulated at the γ(4S) resonance by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. It was observed that one neutral B meson flavor was identified by its decay products. The results show values of the CP-violating parameters were found to be of the order of S J/ψπ o = -0.72∓0.42(stat)∓0.09(syst) and AJ/ψπ 0 = -0.01∓0.29(stat)∓0. 03(syst).

CP violation

In particle physics, CP violation is a violation of CP-symmetry (or charge conjugation parity symmetry): the combination of C-symmetry (charge symmetry) and P-symmetry (parity symmetry). CP-symmetry states that the laws of physics should be the same if a particle is interchanged with its antiparticle (C-symmetry) while its spatial coordinates are inverted ("mirror" or P-symmetry). The discovery of CP violation in 1964 in the decays of neutral kaons resulted in the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1980 for its discoverers James Cronin and Val Fitch.

Baryon asymmetry

In physical cosmology, the baryon asymmetry problem, also known as the matter asymmetry problem or the matter–antimatter asymmetry problem, is the observed imbalance in baryonic matter (the type of matter experienced in everyday life) and antibaryonic matter in the observable universe. Neither the standard model of particle physics nor the theory of general relativity provides a known explanation for why this should be so, and it is a natural assumption that the universe is neutral with all conserved charges.

Beta decay

In nuclear physics, beta decay (β-decay) is a type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits a beta particle (fast energetic electron or positron), transforming into an isobar of that nuclide. For example, beta decay of a neutron transforms it into a proton by the emission of an electron accompanied by an antineutrino; or, conversely a proton is converted into a neutron by the emission of a positron with a neutrino in so-called positron emission.
