Measurement of $CP$ asymmetries in $D^{\pm }\to {\eta }^{\prime }{\pi }^{\pm }$ and $D_s^{\pm }\to {\eta }^{\prime }{\pi }^{\pm }$ decays

Abstract

A search for $CP$ violation in $D^{\pm }\to {\eta }^{\prime }{\pi }^{\pm }$ and $D_s^{\pm }\to {\eta }^{\prime }{\pi }^{\pm }$ decays is performed using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3$ fb${}^{-1}$, recorded by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of $7$ and $8$ TeV. The measured $CP$-violating charge asymmetries are $A_{CP}(D^{\pm }\to {\eta }^{\prime }{\pi }^{\pm })=(-0.61\pm 0.72\pm 0.53\pm 0.12)\%$ and $A_{CP}(D_s^{\pm }\to {\eta }^{\prime }{\pi }^{\pm })=(-0.82\pm 0.36\pm 0.22\pm 0.27)\%$, where the first uncertainties are statistical, the second systematic, and the third are the uncertainties on the $A_{CP}(D^{\pm }\to K_S^0{\pi }^{\pm })$ and $A_{CP}(D_s^{\pm }\to \varphi {\pi }^{\pm })$ measurements used for calibration. The results represent the most precise measurements of these asymmetries to date.
