Download or read book Study of CP-violating Asymmetries in B --] Pi[sup+]/-pi[sup -]/+, K[sup+]/-pi[sup -]/+ Decays written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We present a preliminary measurement of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry parameters S and C in neutral B decays to the[pi][sup+-][pi] CP eigenstate, and an updated preliminary measurement of the charge asymmetry in B[yields] K[sup[+-]][pi] decays. Event yields and CP-violation parameters are determined simultaneously from a multidimensional unbinned maximum likelihood fit. In a data sample consisting of approximately 33 million[Upsilon](4S)[yields] B[bar B] decays collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric B Factory, we find 65[sub -11][sup+12][pi][sup+-][pi] and 217[+-] 18 K[sup[+-]][pi] candidates and measure S= 0.03[sub -0][sup+0][+-] 0.11, C= -0.25[sub -0][sup+0]= -0.25[sub -0][sup+0][+-] 0.14, and= -0.07[+-] 0.08[+-] 0.02, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic.
