Within the Standard Model, one expects CP violation asymmetries in SCS Decays ~10 -3, while New Physics can give CP violation asymmetries ~10 -2. [G. Burdman & I. Shipsey, Ann. Rev. Nucl. Part.

The analysis reported here is based on ~43,000 D +  KK  decays from ~80 fb -1. [BaBar has ~250 fb -1 of data.]

(p* is the c.m. momentum) An unbinned extended maximum likelihood fit using  M & transverse lifetime is then done, where  M  m(  D 0 ) – m(D 0 ) First, a fit to high-statistics RS sample gets –signal  M shape and –unmixed D 0 lifetime for use in WS pdf and to get N(unmixed), the normalization for R mix.
