Mixing and Searches for CP Violation: HFAG Combination of all Data
نویسنده
چکیده
We present world average values for D-D mixing parameters x and y, CP violation parameters |q/p| and Arg(q/p), and strong phase differences δ and δKππ . These values are calculated by the Heavy Flavor Averaging Group (HFAG) by performing a global fit to relevant experimental measurements. The results for x and y differ significantly from zero and are inconsistent with no mixing at the level of 6.7σ. The results for |q/p| and Arg(q/p) are consistent with no CP violation. The strong phase difference δ is less than 45 at 95% C.L.

Heavy Flavor Averaging Group (hfag)
This article reports world averages for measurements on b-hadron properties obtained by the Heavy Flavor Averaging Group (HFAG) using the available results as of summer 2004 conferences. In the averaging, the input parameters used in the various analyses are adjusted (rescaled) to common values, and all known correlations are taken into account. The averages include b-hadron lifetimes, B-oscill...
متن کاملHFAG Charm Mixing Averages
Almost since the discovery of charm mesons, mixing of D −D 0 mesons have been sought in analogy to the well-known K−K 0 mixing. Due to very effective GIM suppression, the expected mixing rate in the charm system is much smaller than for kaons. Only very recently, the BaBar [1] and Belle [2] collaborations have reported the first evidence of charm mixing. These results have renewed the interest ...
متن کاملMixing and CP-violation in charm
The motivation most often cited in searches for D − D mixing and CP-violation in charm system lies with the possibility of observing a signal from new physics which dominates that from the Standard Model. We review recent theoretical predictions and experimental constraints on D − D mixing parameters. We also discuss the current status of searches for CP-violation in charmed meson transitions, ...
متن کاملMixing: Finding the (small) Crack in the Standard Model
We review results from searches for mixing and CP violation in the D 0-D 0 system. No evidence for mixing or CP violation is found, and limits are set for the mixing parameters x, y, x ′ , y ′ , and several CP-violating parameters.
متن کاملCp Violation, Mixing and Rare Decays at the Tevatron Now and in Run Ii I Introduction
We review the status of current B mixing and CP violation measurements from the Fermilab Tevatron. With the existing data sample, the CDF collaboration has made competitive measurements of B 0 d mixing; set limits on B 0 s mixing; and has begun a direct search for CP violation in the B system through the decay B 0 =B 0 ! J==K 0 s. The prospects for future b measurements at the Tevatron, includi...
