Measurement of the Branching Fractions and CP Asymmetries of B-->D0(cp)K- Decays with the BaBar detector
Abstract
We present a study of B--> D0(CP)K- decays, where D0(CP) is reconstructed in non-CP (K-pi+), CP-even (K-K+,pi-pi+) and CP-odd (KS0 pi0) eigenstates, based on a sample of about 214 million Y(4S) -> BBbar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- storage ring. We measure the ratios of branching fractions R+ = [Br(B- ->D0CP+ K-)+Br(B+ ->D0CP+ K+)]/[Br(B- ->D0 K-)] = 0.87 +/- 0.14(stat) +/- 0.06(syst), R- = [Br(B- ->D0CP- K-)+Br(B+ ->D0CP- K+)]/[Br(B- ->D0 K-)] = 0.80 +/- 0.14(stat) +/- 0.08(syst), and the CP asymmetries ACP+ = 0.40 +/- 0.15 (stat) +/- 0.08 (syst) and ACP- = 0.21 +/- 0.17 (stat) +/- 0.07 (syst) All results are preliminary.
