Direct CP violation in charm at Belle

Abstract

Using the full data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+ee^+e^- collider, we have searched for CP violation of charmed mesons in D+KS0π+D^+\rightarrow K^0_S\pi^+ and D0h+hD^0\rightarrow h^+h^- decays, where hh denotes KK and π\pi. We observe evidence for CP violation in D+KS0π+D^+\rightarrow K^0_S\pi^+ decay with 3.2 standard deviations away from zero, (0.363±0.094±0.067)(-0.363\pm0.094\pm0.067)%, while the asymmetry is consistent with the expected CP violation due to the neutral kaon in the final state. No evidence for CP violation in D0h+hD^0\rightarrow h^+h^- is observed with ACPKK=(0.32±0.21±0.09)A^{KK}_{CP}=(-0.32\pm0.21\pm0.09)% and ACPππ=(+0.55±0.36±0.09)A^{\pi\pi}_{CP}=(+0.55\pm0.36\pm0.09)%. The CP asymmetry difference between D0K+KD^0\rightarrow K^+K^- and D0π+πD^0\rightarrow\pi^+\pi^- decays is also measured with ΔACPhh=(0.87±0.41±0.06)\Delta A^{hh}_{CP}=(-0.87\pm0.41\pm0.06)%, which is 2.1 standard deviations away from zero and supports recent LHCb and CDF measurements.
