Measurement of the CP-violation Parameter sin2 with a New Tagging Method at the Resonance
arXiv:1201.3502 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.108.171801
Abstract
We report a measurement of the CP-violation parameter sin2 at the resonance using a new tagging method, called "- tagging." In decays containing a neutral meson, a charged , and a charged pion, the neutral is reconstructed in the CP-eigenstate decay channel. The initial flavor of the neutral meson at the moment of the decay is opposite to that of the charged and may thus be inferred from the charge of the pion without reconstructing the charged . From the asymmetry between - and - tagged yields, we determine sin2 = 0.57 0.58(stat) 0.06(syst). The results are based on 121 fb of data recorded by the Belle detector at the KEKB collider.
