Abstract

CP violation in partial-decay-rate asymmetries are examined for some two-body baryonic decays of\(B_d^0 - \bar B_d^0 \) system. We discuss two feasible experimental circumstances: the symmetrice + e collisions (i) on theZ 0 resonance to produce incoherent\(B_d^0 \bar B_d^0 \) states, and (ii) just above the ϒ(4S) resonance to produceC=even \(B_d^0 \bar B_d^0 \) states. Using the quark-diagram scheme, we estimate the branching ratios of those decays, and the numbers ofb \(\bar b\) pairs needed for testing theCP-violating effects for 3σ signature. We find that the promising channels may beB 0 d ,\(\bar B_d^0 \to p\bar p\),\(\Delta ^ + \bar \Delta ^ - \),\(p\bar \Delta ^ - \),\(\Delta ^ + \bar p\),\(n\bar n\),\(\Delta ^0 \bar \Delta ^0 \),\(n\bar \Delta ^0 \),\(\Delta ^0 \bar n\),\(\Sigma _c^ + \bar \Sigma _c^ - \),\(\Lambda _c^ + \bar \Lambda _c^ - \),\(\Sigma _c^ + \bar \Lambda _c^ - \),\(\Lambda _c^ + \bar \Sigma _c^ - \),\(\Sigma _c^0 \bar \Sigma _c^0 \),\(\Xi _c^0 \bar \Xi _c^0 \), which should be interesting for experimental observation.

  14. Those baryonic decays, which occur through the quark process\(\bar b \to \bar uu\bar d\) with creating ac \(\bar c\) pair from the vacuum, can also occur through the quark process\(\bar b \to \bar cc\bar d\) with creating a light quark pair (\(u\bar u,d\bar d,ors\bar s\)). Because\(p(vac \to c\bar c)/p(vac. \to u\bar u,d\bar d,s\bar s)<< 1\), the former channels are suppressed significantly and can be neglected safely
