Measurements of $C\!P$ violation in the three-body phase space of charmless $B^{\pm}$ decays

Published 22 Aug 2014 in hep-ex | (1408.5373v3)

Abstract: The charmless three-body decay modes $B{\pm} \rightarrow K{\pm} \pi{+} \pi{-}$, $B{\pm} \rightarrow K{\pm} K{+} K{-}$, $B{\pm} \rightarrow \pi{\pm} K{+} K{-}$ and $B{\pm} \rightarrow \pi{\pm} \pi{+} \pi{-}$ are reconstructed using data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0\;$\mbox{\,fb}{-1}$, collected by the LHCb detector. The inclusive $C!P$ asymmetries of these modes are measured to be $$ A_{C!P}(B{\pm} \rightarrow K{\pm} \pi{+} \pi{-})= +0.025 \pm 0.004 \pm 0.004 \pm 0.007 \ A_{C!P}(B{\pm} \rightarrow K{\pm} K{+} K{-}) = -0.036 \pm 0.004 \pm 0.002 \pm 0.007 \ A_{C!P}(B{\pm} \rightarrow \pi{\pm} \pi{+} \pi{-})= +0.058 \pm 0.008 \pm 0.009 \pm 0.007 \ A_{C!P}(B{\pm} \rightarrow \pi{\pm} K{+} K{-})= -0.123 \pm 0.017 \pm 0.012 \pm 0.007 $$ %% where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic, and the third is due to the $C!P$ asymmetry of the $B{\pm} \rightarrow J/\psi K{\pm}$ reference mode. The distributions of these asymmetries are also studied as functions of position in the Dalitz plot and suggest contributions from rescattering and resonance interference processes.
