CP violation effects in multibody B decays

In charged B decays, presence of multiple amplitudes may lead to direct CP violation
A(B → f) =
i |Ai|ei(δi+φi)
¯ A( ¯ B → ¯ f) =
i | ¯
Ai|ei(δi−φi)
Strong phase (δ) invariant under CP , while weak phase (φ) changes sign under CP
ACP (B → f) ≡ | ¯ A|2 − |A|2 | ¯ A|2 + |A|2 ∝
sin(δi − δj) sin(φi − φj)
3 conditions required for direct CP violation At least 2 amplitudes Non-zero strong phase difference, δi − δj = 0 Non-zero weak phase difference, φi − φj = 0 Source of weak phase differences come from different CKM phases of each amplitude

Direct CP violation more complicated in B → 3h decay channels compared to 2-body decays There are at least 4 possible sources of strong phase
BSS mechanism, PRL 43 242 (1979) Penguin diagram (b) contains 3 quark generations in loop If gluon in penguin is timelike (on-shell) Momentum transfer q2 > 4m2
i where i = u, c
Particle rescattering (c) generates a phase difference Tree contribution (a) carries different strong phase

Last source of strong phase
Can occur between decay channels with the same flavour quantum numbers
CPT conservation constrains hadron rescattering
For given quantum numbers, sum of partial widths equal for charge-conjugate decays
KK ↔ ππ rescattering generates a strong phase
Look into rescattering region If rescattering phase in one decay channel generates direct CP violation in this region, Rescattering phase should generate opposite sign direct CP violation in partner decay channel
