ACP in the Dalitz plot of D0 - +0 (EPS-208) • Interference of different intermediate resonances in the Dalitz plot makes amplitudes and phases of the resonances accessible. Expected contributions are from resonant decays through 0, + and -, as well as a non-resonant contribution. • ACP is predicted to be as large as0.1% (F.Buccella et al., Phys.Lett.B 379, 249 (1996)). • E791 found strong evidence for (500) in D+ -+ + (PRL86, 770 (2001)).

Form factor measurement and search for CPV in the decay c e+(EPS-138) • In the heavy quark symmetry limit, particles with a heavy quark are subject to a larger symmetry group . The Lorentz structure of -type baryons is due to the polarization states of the heavy quark only (light quarks forma spin zero state). Due to this simplicity, the predictions of HQET for -type baryons aremore reliablethan for mesons. • Four kinematic variables describe the decay sequence c e+, p +:t = q2/q2max, cos, cosW and . • The four-fold decay rate has the form: are helicity amplitudes containing the dependence on the form factors.
Form factor predictionsfor c e+ • Traditional parameterization of the hadronic current: • HQET implies relations among form factors and reduces their number to two: • In order to fit the data, the q2 dependence of the form factors must be assumed. We follow the Korner-Kramer (KK) model (Phys.Lett. B 275, 495 (1992)) and assume the same dipole dependence for both form factors: • The fit is made for R = f2/f1 and Mpole .

CP violation in the Standard Model In the SM, the origin of CPV resides in flavor changing quark transitions (VCKM): • CPV in decay (direct): Time integrated asymmetries; but strong phases are hard to calculate. • CPV in mixing (indirect): Time integrated asymmetries (e.g., like-sign di-lepton events); expected to be small in the SM. • CPV in the interference between decays with and without mixing: Time dependent analyses; avoid hadronic uncertainties in some important cases.
