MEASUREMENT OF CP ASYMMETRY IN $B^0 \to f_0 K^0_S$, B0 → ϕK0 AND $B^0 \to K^+K^-K^0_S$ DECAYS

Abstract

We present results on time-dependent CP asymmetries in [Formula: see text] and B0 → K+K-K0. The measurements use a data sample consisting of approximately [Formula: see text] and 227(B0 → K+K-K0) million B-meson pairs recorded at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B-meson Factory at SLAC. From a time-dependent maximum likelihood fit, we measure for [Formula: see text]: the mixing-induced CP violation parameter [Formula: see text] and the direct CP violation parameter Cf0K = -0.24 ± 0.31 ( stat ) ± 0.15 ( syst ). From a simultaneous fit to [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] decays, we find: [Formula: see text] and CϕK = 0.00 ± 0.23 ( stat ) ± 0.05 ( syst ). For [Formula: see text] decays with [Formula: see text] decays excluded, we find: [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. From the [Formula: see text] decays with [Formula: see text] decays excluded, we extract the fraction of CP-even final states from angular moments feven = 0.89 ± 0.08 ± 0.06.
