Measurement of the CP Asymmetry in B -> Xs gamma
S. Nishida
Abstract
Direct CP violation in the b->sgamma process is a sensitive probe of physics beyond the Standard Model. We report a measurement of the CP asymmetry in B -> Xs gamma, where the hadronic recoil system Xs is reconstructed using a pseudo-reconstruction technique. In this approach there is negligible contamination from b->dgamma decays, which are expected to have a much larger CP asymmetry. We find ACP = 0.002 +- 0.050(stat.) +- 0.030(syst.) for B -> Xs gamma events having recoil mass smaller than 2.1 GeV/c2. The analysis is based on a data sample of 140 /fb recorded at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- storage ring.
