Observation of CP violation in two-body $$ {B}_{(s)}^0 $$-meson decays to charged pions and kaons

The time-dependent CP asymmetries of B 0 → π + π − and $$ {B}_s^0 $$ B s 0 → K + K − decays are measured using a data sample of pp collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.9 fb − 1 , collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The results are $$ {\displays...

Description
Summary:The time-dependent CP asymmetries of B 0 → π + π − and $$ {B}_s^0 $$ B s 0 → K + K − decays are measured using a data sample of pp collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.9 fb − 1 , collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The results are $$ {\displaystyle \begin{array}{c}{C}_{\pi \pi}=-0.311\pm 0.045\pm 0.015,\\ {}{S}_{\pi \pi}=-0.706\pm 0.042\pm 0.013,\\ {}{C}_{KK}=0.123\pm 0.034\pm 0.015,\\ {}{S}_{KK}=0.164\pm 0.034\pm 0.014,\\ {}{\mathcal{A}}_{KK}^{\Delta \varGamma }=-0.83\pm 0.05\pm 0.09,\end{array}} $$ C ππ = − 0.311 ± 0.045 ± 0.015 , S ππ = − 0.706 ± 0.042 ± 0.013 , C KK = 0.123 ± 0.034 ± 0.015 , S KK = 0.164 ± 0.034 ± 0.014 , A KK Δ Γ = − 0.83 ± 0.05 ± 0.09 , where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The same data sample is used to measure the time-integrated CP asymmetries of B 0 → K + π − and $$ {B}_s^0 $$ B s 0 → K − π + decays and the results are $$ {\displaystyle \begin{array}{c}{A}_{CP}^{B^0}=-0.0824\pm 0.0033\pm 0.0033,\\ {}{A}_{CP}^{B_s^0}=0.236\pm 0.013\pm 0.011.\end{array}} $$ A CP B 0 = − 0.0824 ± 0.0033 ± 0.0033 , A CP B s 0 = 0.236 ± 0.013 ± 0.011 . All results are consistent with earlier measurements. A combination of LHCb measurements provides the first observation of time-dependent CP violation in $$ {B}_s^0 $$ B s 0 decays.
