Abstract

A precise determination of the CKM angle from oscillations in decays offers a critical test of the Standard Model and probes for new physics. We present a comprehensive study on the prospects of measuring at a future Tera- factory, utilizing the baseline detector concept of the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC). A two-dimensional simultaneous fit framework, incorporating flavor tagging, decay time resolution modeling, and acceptance corrections, is developed using full Monte Carlo simulations of decays and inclusive background processes. The effective flavor tagging power reaches , while the decay time resolution is determined to be . Projecting to full statistics of signal events across three dominant decay channels, we estimate a statistical precision of , which corresponds to Tera- boson equivalent data. This study establishes the feasibility of sub-degree level measurements at a -factory, highlighting its unique advantages in time-dependent violation studies through ultra-precise vertexing and background suppression capabilities.
