Using pp collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb(-1) and collected by LHCb in 2011 at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, we report the measurement of direct CP violation in B(s)(0)→K(-)π(+) decays, A(CP)(B(s)(0)→K(-)π(+)=0.27±0.04 (stat)±0.01 (syst), with significance exceeding 5 standard deviations. This is the first observation of CP violation in the decays of B(s)(0) mesons. Furthermore, we provide an improved determination of direct CP violation in B(0)→K(+)π(-) decays, A(CP)(B(0)→K(+)π(-)=-0.080±0.007 (stat)±0.003 (syst), which is the most precise measurement of this quantity to date.
利用 LHCb 在 2011 年 7 TeV 质心能量下收集的对应于 1.0 fb(-1)积分亮度的 pp 碰撞数据,我们报告了在 B(s)(0)→K(-)π(+)衰变中直接 CP 破坏的测量结果,A(CP)(B(s)(0)→K(-)π(+)=0.27±0.04 (stat)±0.01 (syst),其显著性超过 5 个标准偏差。这是首次观察到 B(s)(0)介子衰变中的 CP 破坏。此外,我们对 B(0)→K(+)π(-)衰变中的直接 CP 破坏进行了改进的确定,A(CP)(B(0)→K(+)π(-)=-0.080±0.007 (stat)±0.003 (syst),这是迄今为止对这一数量的最精确测量。
