Search for CP violation using T-odd correlations in D^+ → K^+K^0_S π^+π^- and D^+_s → K^+K^0_S π^+π^- decays

Abstract

We search for CP violation in a sample of 20 000 Cabibbo-suppressed decays, D^+→K^+K_S^0π^+π^-, and 30 000 Cabibbo-favored decays, D_s^+→K^+K_S^0π^+π^-. We use 520  fb^(-1) of data recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider operating at center of mass energies near 10.6 GeV. We search for CP violation in the difference between the T-odd asymmetries obtained using triple product correlations of the D^+ (D_s^+) and D^- (D_s^-) decays, respectively. The T violation parameter values obtained are A_T(D^+)=(-12.0±10.0_(stat)±4.6_(syst))×10^(-3) and A_T(D_s^+)=(-13.6±7.7_(stat)±3.4_(syst))×10^(-3), which are consistent with the standard model expectations.
