Measurement of the branching fraction and time-dependent asymmetry for decays
Abstract
Here, we measure the branching fraction and time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry for B0 → J/ψ π0 decays using a data sample of 711 fb–1 collected on the Υ (4S) resonance by the Belle experiment running at the KEKB e+e– collider. The branching fraction is measured to be B(B0 → J/ψ π0) = [1.62 ± 0.11 (stat) ± 0.06 (syst)] × 10–5, which is the most precise measurement to date. The measured CP asymmetry parameters are S = –0.59 ± 0.19 (stat) ± 0.03 (syst) and A = –0.15 ± 30.14 (stat) +0.04 (syst). The mixing-induced CP asymmetry (S) differs from the case of no CP violation by 3.0 standard deviations, and the direct CP asymmetry (A) is consistent with zero.
