Measurements of charm mixing and CP violation parameters from the decay-time-dependent ratio of D0→K+π- to D0→K-π+ decay rates and the charge-conjugate ratio are reported. The analysis uses B-→D∗+μ-X, and charge-conjugate decays, where D∗+→D0π+, and D0→Kπ±. The pp collision data are recorded by the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies s=7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb-1. The data are analyzed under three hypotheses: (i) mixing assuming CP symmetry, (ii) mixing assuming no direct CP violation in the Cabibbo-favored or doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay amplitudes, and (iii) mixing allowing either direct CP violation and/or CP violation in the superpositions of flavor eigenstates defining the mass eigenstates. The data are also combined with those from a previous LHCb study of D0→Kπ decays from a disjoint set of D∗+ candidates produced directly in pp collisions. In all cases, the data are consistent with the hypothesis of CP symmetry.

Abstract

Measurements of charm mixing and CP violation parameters from the decay-time-dependent ratio of D0→K+π- to D0→K-π+ decay rates and the charge-conjugate ratio are reported. The analysis uses B-→D∗+μ-X, and charge-conjugate decays, where D∗+→D0π+, and D0→Kπ±. The pp collision data are recorded by the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies s=7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb-1. The data are analyzed under three hypotheses: (i) mixing assuming CP symmetry, (ii) mixing assuming no direct CP violation in the Cabibbo-favored or doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay amplitudes, and (iii) mixing allowing either direct CP violation and/or CP violation in the superpositions of flavor eigenstates defining the mass eigenstates. The data are also combined with those from a previous LHCb study of D0→Kπ decays from a disjoint set of D∗+ candidates produced directly in pp collisions. In all cases, the data are consistent with the hypothesis of CP symmetry.
