New FOCUS results on charm mixing and CP violation | Stefano Bianco
; | Date: |
17 Nov 2000 | Journal: | Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl. 99B (2001) 191-199 | Subject: | hep-ex | Affiliation: | on behalf of the FOCUS Coll., J.M.Link et al. | Abstract: | We present a summary of recent results on CP violation and mixing in the charm quark sector based on a high statistics sample collected by photoproduction experiment FOCUS (E831 at Fermilab). We have measured the difference in lifetimes for the $D^0$ decays: $D^0 o K^-pi^+$ and $D^0 o K^-K^+$. This translates into a measurement of the $y_{CP}$ mixing parameter in the $d0d0$ system, under the assumptions that $K^-K^+$ is an equal mixture of CP odd and CP even eigenstates, and CP violation is negligible in the neutral charm meson system. We verified the latter assumption by searching for a CP violating asymmetry in the Cabibbo suppressed decay modes $D^+ o K^-K^+pi^+$, $D^0 o K^-K^+$ and $D^0 o pi^-pi^+$. We show preliminary results on a measurement of the branching ratio $Gamma(D^{*+} o pi^+ (K^+pi^-))/Gamma(D^{*+} o pi^+ (K^-pi^+))$. | Source: | arXiv, hep-ex/0011055 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
