A bstract Using data samples of 983.0 fb − 1 and 427.9 fb − 1 accumulated with the Belle and Belle II detectors operating at the KEKB and SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e + e − colliders, singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays Ξ c + → p K S 0 , Ξ c + → Λ π + , and Ξ c + → Σ 0 π + are observed for the first time. The ratios of branching fractions of Ξ c + → p K S 0 , Ξ c + → Λ π + , and Ξ c + → Σ 0 π + relative to that of Ξ c + → Ξ − π + π + are measured to be B Ξ c + → p K S 0 B Ξ c + → Ξ − π + π + = 2.47 ± 0.16 ± 0.07 % , B Ξ c + → Λ π + B Ξ c + → Ξ − π + π + = 1.56 ± 0.14 ± 0.09 % , B Ξ c + → Σ 0 π + B Ξ c + → Ξ − π + π + = 4.13 ± 0.26 ± 0.22 % . Multiplying these values by the branching fraction of the normalization channel, B Ξ c + → Ξ − π + π + = 2.9 ± 1.3 % , the absolute branching fractions are determined to be B Ξ c + → p K S 0 = 7.16 ± 0.46 ± 0.20 ± 3.21 × 10 − 4 , B Ξ c + → Λ π + = 4.52 ± 0.41 ± 0.26 ± 2.03 × 10 − 4 , B Ξ c + → Σ 0 π + = 1.20 ± 0.08 ± 0.07 ± 0.54 × 10 − 3 . The first and second uncertainties above are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise from the uncertainty in B Ξ c + → Ξ − π + π + .

A bstract We present a measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry in decays using a data set of 365 fb − 1 recorded by the Belle II experiment and the final data set of 711 fb − 1 recorded by the Belle experiment at the Υ(4S) resonance. The direct and mixing-induced time-dependent CP violation parameters C and S are determined along with two additional quantities, S + and S − , defined in the two halves of the plane. The measured values are C = − 0 . 17 ± 0 . 09 ± 0 . 04, S = − 0 . 29 ± 0 . 11 ± 0 . 05, S + = −0 . 57 ± 0 . 23 ± 0 . 10 and S − = 0 . 31 ± 0 . 24 ± 0 . 05, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.

We present measurements ofB → K^(*)(892)γdecays using365 \\rm fb⁻¹of data collected from 2019 to 2022 by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energye⁺e⁻collider. The data sample contains(387 ± 6) × 10⁶Υ(4S)events. We measure branching fractions ( 𝓑 ) andC\\!{P}{}{a}symmetries ( 𝓐_(C\\!P) ) for bothB⁰→ K^(*0)γandB⁺→ K^(*+)γdecays. The difference inC\\!{P}{}{a}symmetries ( Δ𝓐_(C\\!P) ) and the isospin asymmetry ( Δ₀₊ ) between these neutral and charged channels are also measured. We obtain the following branching fractions andC\\!{P}{}{a}symmetries:𝓑 (B⁰ → K^(*0)γ) = (4.14 ± 0.10 ± 0.11 ) × 10⁻⁵ ,𝓑 (B⁺ → K^(*+)γ) = (4.04 ± 0.13 ^(+0.13)_(-0.15) )× 10⁻⁵ ,𝓐_(C\\!P) (B⁰ → K^(*0)γ) = (-3.3 ± 2.3 ± 0.4 )% , and𝓐_(C\\!P) (B⁺ → K^(*+)γ) = (-0.7 ± 2.9 ± 0.5 )% . The measured difference inC\\!{P}{}{a}symmetries isΔ𝓐_(C\\!P) = (+2.6 ± 3.8 ± 0.6 )% , and the measured isospin asymmetry isΔ₀₊ = (+4.8 ± 2.0 ± 1.8 )% . The first uncertainties listed are statistical and the second are systematic. These results are consistent with world-average values and theory predictions.

We present the results of a search for the charged-lepton-flavor violating decays B ⁰→ K ^(*0) τ ^(±) ℓ ^(∓) , where ℓ ^(∓)is either an electron or a muon. The results are based on 365 fb ⁻¹and 711 fb ⁻¹datasets collected with the Belle II and Belle detectors, respectively. We use an exclusive hadronic B-tagging technique, and search for a signal decay in the system recoiling against a fully reconstructed B meson. We find no evidence for B ⁰→ K ^(*0) τ ^(±) ℓ ^(∓)decays and set upper limits on the branching fractions in the range of (2.9–6.4)×10 ⁻⁵at 90% confidence level. 19 pages, 4 figures

We perform the first search for CP violation in$$ {D}_{(s)}^{+}\\to {K}_S^0{K}^{-}{\\pi}^{+}{\\pi}^{+} $$D s + → K S 0 K − π + π + decays. We use a combined data set from the Belle and Belle II experiments, which study e + e − collisions at center-of-mass energies at or near the Υ(4 S ) resonance. We use 980 fb − 1 of data from Belle and 428 fb − 1 of data from Belle II. We measure six CP -violating asymmetries that are based on triple products and quadruple products of the momenta of final-state particles, and also the particles’ helicity angles. We obtain a precision at the level of 0.5% for$$ {D}^{+}\\to {K}_S^0{K}^{-}{\\pi}^{+}{\\pi}^{+} $$D + → K S 0 K − π + π + decays, and better than 0.3% for$$ {D}_s^{+}\\to {K}_S^0{K}^{-}{\\pi}^{+}{\\pi}^{+} $$D s + → K S 0 K − π + π + decays. No evidence of CP violation is found. Our results for the triple-product asymmetries are the most precise to date for singly-Cabibbo-suppressed D + decays. Our results for the other asymmetries are the first such measurements performed for charm decays.

We report measurements of the absolute branching fractions𝓑(B_(s)⁰ → D_(s)^(±) X) ,𝓑(B_(s)⁰ → D⁰/D̄⁰ X) , and𝓑(B_(s)⁰ → D^(±) X) , where the latter is measured for the first time. The results are based on a 121.4 fb ⁻¹data sample collected at theΥ(10860)resonance by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energye⁺ e⁻collider. We reconstruct oneB_(s)⁰meson ine⁺e⁻ → Υ(10860) → B_(s)^(*) B̄_(s)^(*)events and measure yields ofD_(s)⁺ ,D⁰ , andD⁺mesons in the rest of the event. We obtain𝓑(B_(s)⁰ → D_(s)^(±) X) = (68.6 ± 7.2 ± 4.0)% ,𝓑(B_(s)⁰ → D⁰/D̄⁰ X) = (21.5 ± 6.1 ± 1.8)% , and𝓑(B_(s)⁰ → D^(±) X) = (12.6 ± 4.6 ± 1.3)% , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Averaging with previous Belle measurements gives𝓑(B_(s)⁰ → D_(s)^(±) X) = (63.4 ± 4.5 ± 2.2)%and𝓑(B_(s)⁰ → D⁰/D̄⁰ X) = (23.9 ± 4.1 ± 1.8)% . For theB_(s)⁰production fraction at theΥ(10860) , we findf_(s) = (21.4^(+1.5)_(-1.7))% .
