Abstract

We describe here a method for detecting physics beyond the standard model via CP violation in B->rho,pi decays. Using a Dalitz-plot analysis to obtain alpha, along with an analytical extraction of the various tree (T) and penguin (P) amplitudes, we obtain a criterion for the absence of new physics (NP). This criterion involves the comparison of the measured |P/T| ratio with its value as predicted by QCD factorization. We show that the detection of NP via this method has a good efficiency when compared with the corresponding technique using B->pi,pi decays.
