Measurement of $CP$ violation in ${B^0}\rightarrow{D^{+}D^{-}}$ and ${B^{0}_{s}}\rightarrow{D^{+}_{s}D^{-}_{s}}$ decays (2409.03009v2)
Abstract: A time-dependent, flavour-tagged measurement of $CP$ violation is performed with ${B0}\rightarrow{D{+}D{-}}$ and ${B{0}{s}}\rightarrow{D{+}{s}D{-}_{s}}$ decays, using data collected by the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6 fb${-1}$. In ${B0}\rightarrow{D{+}D{-}}$ decays the $CP$-violation parameters are measured to be \begin{align} S_{D{+}D{-}} & = -0.552 \pm 0.100\,\text{(stat)} \pm 0.010\,\text{(syst)}, \nonumber \newline C_{D{+}D{-}} & = \phantom{-}0.128 \pm0.103\,\text{(stat)} \pm 0.010\,\text{(syst)}. \nonumber \end{align} In $B{0}_{s} \rightarrow D{+}{s}D{-}{s}$ decays the $CP$-violating parameter formulation in terms of $\phi_{s}$ and $|\lambda|$ results in \begin{align} \phi_{s} & = -0.086 \pm 0.106 \,\text{(stat)} \pm 0.028\,\text{(syst)} \,\text{rad}, \nonumber \newline |\lambda_{D{+}{s}D{-}{s}}| & = \phantom{-}1.145 \pm 0.126\,\text{(stat)} \pm 0.031\,\text{(syst)}. \nonumber \end{align} These results represent the most precise single measurement of the $CP$-violation parameters in their respective channels. For the first time in a single measurement, $CP$ symmetry is observed to be violated in ${B0}\rightarrow{D{+}D{-}}$ decays with a significance exceeding six standard deviations.
