Inclusive CP Asymmetries in Semileptonic Decays of B Mesons
نویسنده
چکیده
We estimate the sensitivity of single lepton CP violation measurements with respect to that of traditional di-lepton measurements. We find that the sensitivity of the single lepton method is better than that of the di-lepton method. The achievable sensitivity with the currently available data is already in the range relevant to standard model predictions. We also give general expressions for inclusive decay time distributions on Υ4S where the other B is not measured, which will be used to obtain time dependent asymmetries. The expression is of general use whenever one deals with inclusive time-dependent as well as time-integrated measurements in Υ(4S) → BB̄ where the final state of the other B is not reconstructed or when only the time difference is measured. A talk given at the San Miniato conference, April 1997, and at the Hawaii CP violation conference, February 1997.

Mixing - induced CP Asymmetries in Inclusive B Decays ∗
We consider CP violating asymmetries that are induced by particle-antiparticle mixing in inclusive channels of neutral B meson decay. Not only are the branching ratios sizable, at the 1% to 50% level, but some of those asymmetries are expected to be large because of substantial CKM phases. The inclusive sum partially dilutes the asymmetries, but the dilution factor is calculable, assuming local...
متن کاملMeasurement of the Semileptonic CP Asymmetry in B0-B̄0 Mixing
The semileptonic CP asymmetry in B-B̄ mixing, asl, is measured in proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb−1, recorded by the LHCb experiment. Semileptonic B decays are reconstructed in the inclusive final states D−μþ and D −μþ, where the D− meson decays into theKþπ−π− final state and theD − meson into the D̄0ð→ Kþπ−Þπ− final state. The asymmetry between t...

In the following sections, we discuss some of the key questions related to semileptonic decays of B mesons: the inclusive semileptonic branching fraction, the determination of jV cb j and jV ub j from inclusive and exclusive measurements, recent progress in exclusive semileptonic decays, and form factor measurements and tests of heavy-quark eeective theory. We emphasize the uncertainties that a...
متن کاملDirect CP Violation in B → X s γ Decays as a Signature of New Physics
We argue that the observation of a sizable direct CP asymmetry A CP in the inclusive decays B → Xsγ would be a clean signal of New Physics. In the Standard Model, A CP can be calculated reliably and is found to be below 1% in magnitude. In extensions of the Standard Model with new CP-violating couplings, large CP asymmetries are possible without conflicting with the experimental value of the br...
متن کاملQCD factorization and CP asymmetries in hadronic B decays
We review recent advances in the theory of strong-interaction effects and final-state interactions in hadronic weak decays of heavy mesons. In the heavy-quark limit, the amplitudes for most nonleptonic, two-body B decays can be calculated from first principles and expressed in terms of semileptonic form factors and lightcone distribution amplitudes. We summarize the main features of this novel ...
متن کاملInclusive Semileptonic B Decays at BABAR
We present measurements of the inclusive semileptonic branching fractions of charged and neutral B mesons using 20.6 fb−1 of data measured at the Υ (4S) with the BABAR detector. Events are tagged with a fully reconstructed hadronic decay of a B meson. The correlation between the flavor of the tag B meson and the electron charge allows the separation of prompt semileptonic B decays and cascade s...
