Indirect CP violation results and HFAG averages

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

The current status of the search for indirect CP violation in the neutral D meson system at the B-factories and at LHCb is reported. The indirect CP asymmetry search is performed by the measurement of the proper-time asymmetry (AΓA_Γ) in decays of D0−D0ˉD^0-\bar{D^0} mesons to CP eigenstates, K−K+K^-K^+ and π−π+π^- π^+, and by yCPy_{CP}, the ratio between the effective lifetime measured in decay to a CP eigenstate and that to the mixed eigenstate KπK π. All results are consistent with the no CP violation hypothesis. The latest world averages for mixing and CP asymmetry in the charm sector evaluated by the Heavy Flavour Averaging Group are presented. The no mixing hypothesis is excluded at more than 12 standard deviations. The search for direct and indirect CP violation in the charm sector is consistent with no CP violation at 2.0% confident level.
