Search for the process $e^+e^-\to J/ψ+ X(1835)$ at $\sqrt{s}\approx10.6$GeV

We report the results of a search for the $X(1835)$ state in the process $e^+e^-\to J/ψ+X(1835)$ using a data sample of 672 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at and near the $Υ(4S)$ resonance at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. No significant evidence is found for this process, and an upper limit is set on its cross section times the branching fraction: $σ_{\rm Born}(e^+e^- \to J/ψX(1835)) \cdot$ {${\cal B}(X(1835)\to \ge 3$ charged tracks)} $< 1.3 \ {\rm fb}$ at 90% confidence level.

Search for Lepton-Flavor-Violating and Lepton-Number-Violating tau to lhh' Decay Modes

We search for lepton-flavor-violating and lepton-number-violating tau decays into a lepton (l = electron or muon) and two charged mesons (h, h' = pion or Kaon) using 854 fb^{-1} of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider. We obtain 90% confidence level upper limits on the tau to lhh' branching fractions in the range (2.0-8.4)*10^{-8}. These results improve upon our previously published upper limits by factors of about 1.8 on average.

Search for CP Violation in D Meson Decays to phi pi+

We search for CP violation in Cabibbo-suppressed charged D meson decays by measuring the difference between the CP violating asymmetries for the Cabibbo-suppressed decays D+ -> K+K-pi+ and the Cabibbo-favored decays Ds -> K+K-pi+ in the K+K- mass region of the phi resonance. Using 955/fb of data collected with the Belle detector we obtain A_CP(D+ -> phi pi+) = (+0.51 +- 0.28 +- 0.05)%. The measurement improves the sensitivity of previous searches by more than a factor of five. We find no evidence for direct CP violation.

Search for Lepton-number-violating B+->D-l+l'+ Decays

We perform the first search for lepton-number-violating B+->D-l+l'+ decays, where l and l' stand for e or mu, using 772 x 10^6 BB-bar pairs accumulated at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e^+e^- collider. No evidence for these decays has been found. Assuming uniform three-body phase space distributions for the D-l+l+ decays, we set the following upper limits on the branching fractions at 90% confidence level: Br(B+ -> D-e+e+) < 2.6x10^-6, Br(B+ -> D-e+mu+) < 1.8x10^-6 and Br(B+ -> D-mu+mu+) < 1.0x10^-6.

Observation of transverse polarization asymmetries of charged pion pairs in e+e- annihilation near sqrt s=10.58 GeV

The interference fragmentation function translates the fragmentation of a quark with a transverse projection of the spin into an azimuthal asymmetry of two final-state hadrons. In e+e- annihilation the product of two interference fragmentation functions is measured. We report nonzero asymmetries for pairs of charge-ordered pi+pi- pairs, which indicate a significant interference fragmentation function in this channel. The results are obtained from a 672 fb-1 data sample that contains 711 \times 106 pi+pi- pairs and was collected at and near the ?(4S) resonance, with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.
