The flavor of the charm meson is inferred from the charge of the pion in D* (2010)(+) -> D-0 pi(+) decays or from the charge of the muon in (B) over bar -> D-0 mu(-)(nu) over bar X-mu decays. The difference between the CP asymmetries in D-0 -> K-K+ and D-0 -> pi(-)pi(+) decays is measured to be Delta A(CP) = [-18.2 +/- 3.2(stat) +/- 0.9(syst)] x 10(-4) for pi-tagged and Delta A(CP) = [-9 +/- 8(stat) +/- 5(syst)] x 10(-4) for mu-tagged D-0 mesons. Combining these with previous LHCb results leads to Delta A(CP) = (-15.4 +/- 2.9) x 10(-4), where the uncertainty includes both statistical and systematic contributions. The measured value differs from zero by more than 5 standard deviations. This is the first observation of CP violation in the decay of charm hadrons.", optnote="WOS:000469334800009", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4036), last updated on Thu, 13 Jun 2019 08:11:27 +0000", issn="0031-9007", doi="10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.211803", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.08726", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.211803", language="English" }
