Testing CPT with the Neutral-D System

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

We investigate the issue of testing CPT invariance in the neutral-DD system, using DD events obtained either from fixed-target experiments or from a tau-charm factory. For both types of experiments we show that the expected suppression of mixing in the DD system, normally viewed as a disadvantage for CP tests, allows unsuppressed measurement of certain parameters describing CPT violation. Asymmetries are presented that permit the extraction of parameters for direct CPT violation in the DD system and for indirect CPT violation in the KK system. We also show that experiments on the neutral-DD system provide an alternative means for measuring conventional indirect TT violation in the kaon system.
