Abstract

We report results on the decay B- → DCPK - and its charge conjugate using a data sample of 85.4 × 106 BB̄ pairs recorded at the γ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric e+e- storage ring. Ratios of branching fractions of Cabibbo-suppressed to Cabibbo-favored processes are determined to be Β(B- → D0K -)/Β(B- → D0 π-) = 0.077±0.005(stat)±0.006(syst), Β(B- → D 1K-)/Β(B- → D1π - = 0.093 ±0.018(stat)±0.008(syst) and Β(B - → D2K-)/Β(B- → D2 π-) = 0-108±0.019(stat)±0.007(syst) where the indices 1 and 2 represent the CP= + 1 and CP= - 1 eigenstates of the D0-D̄0 system, respectively. We find the partial-rate charge asymmetries for B- → DCPK- to be A1 =0.06±0.19(stat)±0.04(syst) and A2 = -0.19±0.17(stat)±0.05(syst). © 2003 The American Physical Society.

Belle experiment

The Belle experiment was a particle physics experiment conducted by the Belle Collaboration, an international collaboration of more than 400 physicists and engineers, at the High Energy Accelerator Research Organisation (KEK) in Tsukuba, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan. The experiment ran from 1999 to 2010. The Belle detector was located at the collision point of the asymmetric-energy electron–positron collider, KEKB.

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.

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.
