Abstract

Recently we derived a nonlinear U-spin amplitude relation for D0P+PD^0\to P^+P^-, P=π,KP=\pi, K, predicted to hold up to fourth order U-spin breaking terms of order 10310^{-3}. Here we study a similar relation for D0V+P,V=ρ,K(892),P=π,KD^0\to V^+P^-, V =\rho, K^*(892), P = \pi, K, expected to hold at an even higher accuracy of order 10410^{-4}. We confirm this prediction in spite of a large experimental error of about 20% in the amplitude of D0K+πD^0\to K^{*+}\pi^-. We also comment briefly on U-spin breaking in D0P+VD^0\to P^+V^-.
