Search for $CP$ violation in $Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+h^+h^-$ and $Λ_c^+\to ph^+h^-$ at Belle II

We report decay-rate $CP$ asymmetries of the singly-Cabibbo-suppressed decays $Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+h^+h^-$ and $Λ_c^+\to ph^+h^-$, with $h=K,π$, measured using 428 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collisions collected by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider. The results, \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+K^+K^-) = (3.7\pm6.6\pm0.6)\%, \end{equation} \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+π^+π^-) = (9.5\pm6.8\pm0.5)\%, \end{equation} \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Λ_c^+\to pK^+K^-) = (3.9\pm1.7\pm0.7)\%, \end{equation} \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Λ_c^+\to pπ^+π^-) = (0.3\pm1.0\pm0.2)\%, \end{equation} where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic, agree with $CP$ symmetry. From these results we derive the sums \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+π^+π^-) \, + \, A_{CP}(Λ_c^+\to pK^+K^-) = (13.4 \pm 7.0\pm 0.9)\%, \end{equation} \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+K^+K^-) \, + \, A_{CP}(Λ_c^+\to pπ^+π^-) = (\phantom{0}4.0 \pm 6.6\pm 0.7)\%, \end{equation} which are consistent with the $U$-spin symmetry prediction of zero. These are the first measurements of $CP$ asymmetries for individual hadronic three-body charmed-baryon decays.

Measurement of the time-integrated CP asymmetry in $D^{0}\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{0}_{S}$ decays using Belle and Belle II data

We measure the time-integrated CP asymmetry in $D^{0} \rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{0}_{S}$ decays reconstructed in $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow c\overline{c}$ events collected by the Belle and Belle II experiments. The corresponding data samples have integrated luminosities of 980 fb$^{-1}$ and 428 fb$^{-1}$, respectively. The $D^{0}$ decays are required to originate from the $D^{*+} \rightarrow D^{0}π^{+}$ decay, which determines the charm flavor at production time. A control sample of $D^{0} \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$ decays is used to correct for production and detection asymmetries. The result, $(-1.4\pm1.3{\rm(stat)}\pm0.1{\rm (syst)})\%$, is consistent with previous determinations and with CP symmetry.

Measurements of the branching fractions of $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Σ^{+}K_{S}^{0}$, $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Ξ^{0}π^{+}$, and $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Ξ^{0}K^{+}$ at Belle and Belle II

Using 983.0 $\rm{fb}^{-1}$ and 427.9 $\rm{fb}^{-1}$ data samples collected with the Belle and Belle II detectors at the KEKB and SuperKEKB asymmetric energy $e^+e^-$ colliders, respectively, we present studies of the Cabibbo-favored $Ξ_c^+$ decays ${Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Σ^{+}K_{S}^{0}}$ and $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Ξ^{0}π^{+}$, and the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Ξ^{0}K^{+}$. The ratios of branching fractions of ${Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Σ^{+}K_{S}^{0}}$ and $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Ξ^{0}K^{+}$ relative to that of $Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{-}π^{+}π^{+}$ are measured for the first time, while the ratio ${\cal B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{0}π^{+})/{\cal B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{-}π^{+}π^{+}) $ is also determined and improved by an order of magnitude in precision. The measured branching fraction ratios are $\frac{\cal{B}(Ξ_{c}^{+} \to Σ^{+}K_{S}^{0})}{\cal{B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Ξ^{-}π^{+}π^+)}= 0.067 \pm 0.007 \pm 0.003$, $\frac{\cal{B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Ξ^{0}π^{+})}{\cal{B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Ξ^{-}π^{+}π^+)} = 0.251 \pm 0.005 \pm 0.010$, $\frac{\cal{B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Ξ^{0}K^{+})}{\cal{B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Ξ^{-}π^{+}π^+)} = 0.017 \pm 0.003 \pm 0.001$. Additionally, the ratio ${\cal B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{0}K^{+})/{\cal B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{0}π^{+})$ is measured to be $ 0.068 \pm 0.010 \pm 0.004$. Here, the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. Multiplying the ratios by the branching fraction of the normalization mode, ${\mathcal B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{-}π^{+}π^+)= (2.9\pm 1.3)\%$, we obtain the following absolute branching fractions ${\cal B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΣ^{+}K^{0}_{S}) = (0.194 \pm 0.021 \pm 0.009 \pm 0.087 )%$, ${\cal B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{0}π^{+}) = (0.728 \pm 0.014 \pm 0.027 \pm 0.326 )%$, ${\cal B}(Ξ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{0}K^{+}) = (0.049 \pm 0.007 \pm 0.003 \pm 0.022 )%$.

Model-independent measurement of $D^0$-$\overline{D}{}^0$ mixing parameters in $D^0\rightarrow K^0_{S}π^+π^-$ decays at Belle and Belle II

We perform a model-independent measurement of the $D^0$-$\overline{D}{}^0$ mixing parameters using samples of $e^+e^-$-collision data collected by the Belle and Belle II experiments that have integrated luminosities of $951\ \text{fb}^{-1}$ and $408\ \text{fb}^{-1}$, respectively. Approximately $2.05\times10^6$ neutral $D$ mesons are reconstructed in the $D^0\rightarrow K^0_{S}π^+π^-$ channel, with the neutral $D$ flavor tagged by the charge of the pion in the $D^{*+}\rightarrow D^0π^+$ decay. Assuming charge-parity symmetry, the mixing parameters are measured to be $ x = (4.0\pm1.7\pm0.4)\times 10^{-3} $ and $ y = (2.9\pm1.4\pm0.3)\times 10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The results are consistent with previous determinations.

Measurement of $B^+\toτ^+ν_τ$ branching fraction with a hadronic tagging method at Belle II

We present a measurement of the branching fraction of $B^+\toτ^+ν_τ$ decays using $(387\pm6)\times 10^6$ $Υ(4S)$ collected between 2019 and 2022 with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. We reconstruct the accompanying $B^-$ meson using the hadronic tagging method, while $B^+\toτ^+ν_τ$ candidates are identified in the recoil. We find evidence for $B^+\toτ^+ν_τ$ decays at 3.0 standard deviations, including systematic uncertainties. The measured branching fraction is $\mathcal{B}(B^+\toτ^+ν_τ) = [1.24 \pm 0.41 (\text{stat.}) \pm 0.19 (\text{syst.})] \times 10^{-4}$.

Observations of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $Ξ_c^{+} \to pK_{S}^{0}$, $Ξ_c^+ \to Λπ^+$, and $Ξ_c^+ \to Σ^{0} π^+$ at Belle and Belle II

Using data samples of 983.0~$\rm fb^{-1}$ and 427.9~$\rm fb^{-1}$ accumulated with the Belle and Belle~II detectors operating at the KEKB and SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ colliders, singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $Ξ_c^{+} \to pK_{S}^{0}$, $Ξ_c^+ \to Λπ^+$, and $Ξ_c^+ \to Σ^{0} π^+$ are observed for the first time. The ratios of branching fractions of $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to p K_{S}^{0}$, $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Λπ^{+}$, and $Ξ_{c}^{+}\to Σ^{0} π^{+}$ relative to that of $Ξ_c^+ \to Ξ^- π^{+} π^{+}$ are measured to be \begin{equation} \frac{{\cal B}(Ξ_c^+ \to pK_S^0)}{{\cal B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Ξ^{-} π^+ π^+)} = (2.47 \pm 0.16 \pm 0.07)\% \notag, \end{equation} \begin{equation} \frac{{\cal B}(Ξ_c^+ \to Λπ^+)}{{\cal B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Ξ^{-} π^+ π^+)} = (1.56 \pm 0.14 \pm 0.09)\% \notag, \end{equation} \begin{equation} \frac{{\cal B}(Ξ_c^+ \to Σ^0 π^+)}{{\cal B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Ξ^{-} π^+ π^+)} = (4.13 \pm 0.26 \pm 0.22)\% \notag. \end{equation} Multiplying these values by the branching fraction of the normalization channel, ${\cal B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Ξ^{-} π^+π^+) = (2.9 \pm 1.3)\%$, the absolute branching fractions are determined to be \begin{equation} {\cal B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to p K_{S}^{0}) = (7.16 \pm 0.46 \pm 0.20 \pm 3.21) \times 10^{-4} \notag, \end{equation} \begin{equation} {\cal B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Λπ^+) = (4.52 \pm 0.41 \pm 0.26 \pm 2.03) \times 10^{-4} \notag, \end{equation} \begin{equation} {\cal B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Σ^0 π^+) = (1.20 \pm 0.08 \pm 0.07 \pm 0.54) \times 10^{-3} \notag. \end{equation} The first and second uncertainties above are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise from the uncertainty in ${\cal B}(Ξ_c^{+} \to Ξ^{-} π^{+} π^{+})$.
