Searching for new physics in the angular distribution of B^0 -> phi K^* decay

Abstract

Motivated by the possible discrepancy between the observed CP asymmetry and that of standard model expectation in the decay mode B^0 -> phi K_S, we study the corresponding vector vector decay mode B^0 -> phi K^*. In order to obtain decisive information regarding the CP violating effect, we made the angular distribution analysis of the decay products, where both the outgoing vector mesons decay into two pseudoscalars. Furthermore, we study the possible effects of new physics using the angular distribution observables.
