چکیده

Three-body B+ → ppK+ and B(+) → ppπ(+) decays are studied using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb(-1) collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. Evidence of CP violation in the B(+) → ppK(+) decay is found in regions of the phase space, representing the first measurement of this kind for a final state containing baryons. Measurements of the forward-backward asymmetry of the light meson in the pp rest frame yield A(FB)(ppK(+),m(pp)<2.85 GeV/c(2)) = 0.495 ± 0.012 (stat) ± 0.007 (syst) and A(FB)(ppπ(+),m(pp) <2.85 GeV/c(2)) = -0.409 ± 0.033 (stat) ± 0.006 (syst). In addition, the branching fraction of the decay B(+) → Λ(1520)p is measured to be B(B(+) → Λ(1520)p) = (3.15 ± 0.48 (stat) ± 0.07 (syst) ± 0.26 (BF)) × 10(-7), where BF denotes the uncertainty on secondary branching fractions.

Rare B Decays at Belle

Recent results of rare B decay analyses based on 31.9 million BB̄ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric ee collider are presented. We have made the first observation of charmless baryonic decay B → ppK, the three-body B → Kππ and B → KKK. The measured branching fractions are B(B → pp̄K) = (4.3 −0.9 ± 0.5) × 10 , B(B→Kππ) = (53.2 ± 11.3 ± 9.7) × 10, and B(B→KKK) = (34.8 ± 6.7 ± ...

Theory of CP Violation

CP violation in K and B decays is reviewed in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. In K decays, one is seeking first evidence for CP violation in direct K -+ ~rTr decays. This would not give a precise quantitative test for the present explanation of CP violation in terms of a phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. Such tests are provided by a variety of CP asymmetries in neu...

Search for direct CP violation in B → K π , ππ , KK , Quasi - Two - Body B decays and B → K ∗ γ with the BABAR detector at the PEP - II collider ∗

A sample of 23 million BB events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider is used in a search for direct CP violation in charmless two-body B decays, quasi two-body B decays, and the radiative penguin decays B → K∗γ. No evidence for direct CP violation is found in the considered modes and 90% confidence level limits are reported. We also present a limit on the branching fraction...

Rare Kaon Decays: Progress and Prospects

There is a large overlap in the current physics motivation for investigating B-meson and K-meson decays. The much newer and heavier b quark opens many possibilities for studying interesting decay channels with fascinating phenomenologies of mixing, oscillations, and CP violation. In the past year the promise of revealing the origin of CP violation has begun to be realized in pioneering experime...
