Abstract:

The first observation of the decay Bs0→K*0°­Ì„*0 is reported using 35 pb-1 of data collected by LHCb in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. A total of 49.8±7.5 Bs0→(K+Ï€-)(K-Ï€+) events are observed within ±50 MeV/c2 of the Bs0 mass and 746 MeV/c2°­Ï€<1046 MeV/c2, mostly coming from a resonant Bs0→K*0°­Ì„*0 signal. The branching fraction and the CP-averaged K*0 longitudinal polarization fraction are measured to be B(Bs0→K*0°­Ì„*0)=(2.81±0.46(²õ³Ù²¹³Ù.)±0.45(²õ²â²õ³Ù.)±0.34(´Ús/fd))×10-5 and fL=0.31±0.12(stat.)±0.04(syst.). © 2012 CERN.

Abstract:

A search for time-integrated CP violation in D0 → h-h+ (h = K, π) decays is presented using 0.62 fb-1 of data collected by LHCb in 2011. The flavor of the charm meson is determined by the charge of the slow pion in the D∗+ → D0π+ and D∗- → D¯0π- decay chains. The difference in CP asymmetry between D0 → K-K+ and D0 → π-π+, ΔACP ≈ ACP(K-K+)-ACP(π-π+), is measured to be [-0.82 ± 0.21(stat) ± 0.11(syst)]%. This differs from the hypothesis of CP conservation by 3.5 standard deviations. © 2012 CERN, for the LHCb Collaboration.
