Measurement of the time-integrated 𝐢⁒𝑃 asymmetry in 𝐷 0 β†’ πœ‹ 0 β’πœ‹ 0 decays at Belle II

We measure the time-integrated 𝐢⁒𝑃 asymmetry, 𝐴 𝐢⁒𝑃 , in 𝐷 0 β†’ πœ‹ 0 β’πœ‹ 0 decays reconstructed in 𝑒 + ⁒𝑒 βˆ’ β†’ $𝑐⁒\bar{𝑐}$ events collected by Belle II during 2019–2022. The data corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 428 fb βˆ’1 . The 𝐷 0 decays are required to originate from the flavor-conserving 𝐷 *+ β†’ 𝐷 0 β’πœ‹ + decay to determine the charm flavor at production time. Control samples of 𝐷 0 β†’ 𝐾 βˆ’ β’πœ‹ + decays, with or without an associated pion from a 𝐷 *+ decay, are used to correct for detection asymmetries. The result, 𝐴 𝐢⁒𝑃 ⁑(𝐷 0 β†’ πœ‹ 0 β’πœ‹ 0 ) = (0.30 Β± 0.72 Β± 0.20)%, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic, is consistent with 𝐢⁒𝑃 symmetry.

Model-independent measurement of 𝐷 0 βˆ’$\overline{D}$ 0 mixing parameters in 𝐷 0 β†’ 𝐾$^{0}_{𝑆}$β’πœ‹ + β’πœ‹ βˆ’ decays at Belle and Belle II

We perform a model-independent measurement of the 𝐷 0 βˆ’$\overline{D}$ 0 mixing parameters using samples of 𝑒 + ⁒𝑒 βˆ’ -collision data collected by the Belle and Belle II experiments that have integrated luminosities of 951 fb βˆ’1 and 408 fb βˆ’1 , respectively. Approximately 2.05 Γ— 10 6 neutral 𝐷 mesons are reconstructed in the 𝐷 0 β†’ 𝐾$^{0}_{S}$β’πœ‹ + β’πœ‹ βˆ’ channel, with the neutral 𝐷 flavor tagged by the charge of the pion in the 𝐷* + β†’ 𝐷 0⁒ πœ‹ + decay. Assuming charge-parity symmetry, the mixing parameters are measured to be π‘₯ = (4.0 Β±1.7 Β±0.4) Γ— 10 βˆ’3 and 𝑦 = (2.9 Β±1.4 Β±0.3) Γ— 10 βˆ’3 , where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The results are consistent with previous determinations.

New graph-neural-network flavor tagger for Belle II and measurement of sin 2β’πœ™ 1 in 𝐡 0 β†’ 𝐽/πœ“β’πΎ$^0_ S$ decays

We present GFlaT, a new algorithm that uses a graph-neural-network to determine the flavor of neutral 𝐡 mesons produced in ϒ⁑(4⁒𝑆) decays. It improves previous algorithms by using the information from all charged final-state particles and the relations between them. We evaluate its performance using 𝐡 decays to flavor-specific hadronic final states reconstructed in a 362 fb βˆ’1 sample of electron-positron collisions collected at the ϒ⁑(4⁒𝑆) resonance with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. We achieve an effective tagging efficiency of (37.40 Β± 0.43 Β± 0.36%), where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic, which is 18% better than the previous Belle II algorithm. Demonstrating the algorithm, we use 𝐡 0 →𝐽/πœ“β’πΎ$^0_ S$ decays to measure the mixing-induced and direct 𝐢⁒𝑃 violation parameters, 𝑆 = (0.724 Β± 0.035 Β± 0.009) and 𝐢 = (βˆ’0.035 Β± 0.026 Β± 0.029).
