The first study is presented of CP violation with an amplitude analysis of the Dalitz plot of B0→DKþπ− decays, with D→Kþπ−, KþK−, and πþπ−. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to3.0fb−1ofppcollisions collected with the LHCb detector. No significantCPviolation effect is seen, and constraints are placed on the angleγ of the unitarity triangle formed from elements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark mixing matrix. Hadronic parameters associated with the B0→DKð892Þ0decay are determined for the first time. These measurements can be used to improve the sensitivity toγof existing and future studies of theB0→DKð892Þ0decay.

I. INTRODUCTION
One of the most important challenges of physics today is understanding the origin of the matter-antimatter asymme-try of the Universe. Within the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, the CP symmetry between particles and antiparticles is broken only by the complex phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing matrix[1,2]. An important parameter in the CKM descrip-tion of the SM flavor structure is γ≡arg½−VudVub=
ðVcdVcbÞ, one of the three angles of the unitarity triangle formed from CKM matrix elements [3–5]. Since the SM cannot account for the baryon asymmetry of the Universe
[6] new sources of CP violation, that would show up as deviations from the SM, are expected. The precise deter-mination ofγ is necessary in order to be able to search for such small deviations.
The value ofγcan be determined from theCP-violating interference between the two amplitudes in, for example,
Bþ →DKþ and charge-conjugate decays[7–10]. HereD
denotes a neutral charm meson reconstructed in a final state accessible to both D¯0 and D0 decays, that is therefore a superposition of the D¯0 and D0 states produced through
b→cW andb→uW transitions (hereafter referred to as
Vcb and Vub amplitudes). This approach has negligible theoretical uncertainty in the SM [11] but limited data samples are available experimentally.
A similar method based on B0→DKþπ− decays has been proposed[12,13] to help improve the precision. By studying the Dalitz plot (DP)[14]distributions ofB¯0and
B0 decays, interference between different contributions,
such as B0→D2ð2460Þ−Kþ and B0→DKð892Þ0 (Feynman diagrams shown in Fig. 1), can be exploited to obtain additional sensitivity compared to the “ quasi-two-body” analysis in which only the region of the DP dominated by the Kð892Þ0 resonance is selected
[15–17]. The method is illustrated in Fig. 2, where the relative amplitudes of the different channels are sketched in the complex plane. The B0→D¯0K0 (Vcb) amplitude is determined, relative to that forB0→D2−Kþ decays, from analysis of the Dalitz plot with the neutral D meson reconstructed in a favored decay mode such as
¯
D0→Kþπ−. The Vub amplitude can then be obtained from the difference in this relative amplitude compared to the Vcb only case when the neutral D meson is recon-structed as aCP eigenstate. A nonzero value of γ causes different relative amplitudes for B0 and B¯0 decays, and henceCPviolation. The method allows the determination ofγ and the hadronic parametersrB andδB, which are the relative magnitude and strong (i.e.CP-conserving) phase of theVubandVcbamplitudes for theB0→DK0decay, with only CP-even D decays required to be reconstructed in addition to the favored decays. This feature, which is in contrast to the method of Refs.[7,8]that requires samples of bothCP-even andCP-odd D decays, is important for analysis of data collected at a hadron collider where reconstruction ofD meson decays toCP-odd final states such as K0Sπ0 is challenging. The Dalitz analysis method also has only a single ambiguity (γ↔γþπ, δB ↔ δBþπ), whereas the method of Refs. [7,8] has an eight-fold ambiguity in the determination ofγ.
This paper describes the first study ofCPviolation with a DP analysis of B0→DKþπ− decays, with a sample corresponding to 3.0fb−1 of pp collision data collected with the LHCb detector at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The inclusion of charge conjugate processes is implied throughout the paper except where discussing asymmetries.

II. DETECTOR AND SIMULATION
The LHCb detector [18,19] is a single-arm forward spectrometer covering the pseudorapidity range 2<η<5, designed for the study of particles containingborcquarks. The detector includes a high-precision tracking system consisting of a silicon-strip vertex detector surrounding theppinteraction region, a large-area silicon-strip detector located upstream of a dipole magnet with a bending power of about 4 Tm, and three stations of silicon-strip detectors and straw drift tubes placed downstream of the magnet. The tracking system provides a measurement of momentum,p, of charged particles with a relative uncertainty that varies from 0.5% at low momentum to 1.0% at200 GeV=c. The minimum distance of a track to a primary vertex, the impact parameter, is measured with a resolution ofð15þ29=pTÞμm, wherepTis the component of the momentum transverse to
the beam, in GeV=c. Different types of charged hadrons are distinguished using information from two ring-imaging Cherenkov detectors. Photons, electrons, and hadrons are identified by a calorimeter system consisting of scintillating-pad and preshower detectors, an electromagnetic calorimeter and a hadronic calorimeter. Muons are identified by a system composed of alternating layers of iron and multiwire propor-tional chambers. The online event selection is performed by a trigger, which consists of a hardware stage, based on information from the calorimeter and muon systems, fol-lowed by a software stage, in which all charged particles with
pT>500ð300ÞMeV=care reconstructed for 2011 (2012)
data. A detailed description of the trigger conditions is available in Ref.[20].
Simulated data samples are used to study the response of the detector and to investigate certain categories of back-ground. In the simulation,ppcollisions are generated using
PYTHIA [21] with a specific LHCb configuration [22].
Decays of hadronic particles are described by EVTGEN [23], in which final-state radiation is generated using
PHOTOS [24]. The interaction of the generated particles
with the detector, and its response, are implemented using theGEANT4 toolkit[25]as described in Ref.[26].
III. SELECTION
CandidateB0→DKþπ−decays are selected with theD
[image:2.612.86.528.45.108.2]meson decaying into theKþπ−,KþK−, orπþπ−final state. The selection requirements are similar to those used for the DP analyses of B0→D¯0Kþπ− [27] and B0s→D¯0K−πþ
[28,29]decays, where in both cases only theD¯0→Kþπ−
mode was used.
The more copiousB0→Dπþπ− modes, with neutralD
meson decays to one of the three final states under study, are used as control channels to optimize the selection requirements. Loose initial requirements on the final state tracks and the D and B candidates are used to obtain a visible peak ofB0→Dπþπ−decays. The neutralDmeson candidate must satisfy criteria on its invariant mass, vertex quality, and flight distance from any PV and from the B
candidate vertex. Requirements on the outputs of boosted decision tree algorithms that identify neutral D meson decays, in each of the decay chains of interest, originating from b hadron decays [30,31] are also applied. These requirements are sufficient to reduce to negligible levels potential background from charmlessBmeson decays that

meson. Vetoes are applied to remove backgrounds from B0→Dð2010Þ−Kþ, B0→D∓π, B0s →D−sπþ, and B0ðsÞ→D0D¯0 decays, and candidates consistent with originating from B0ðsÞ→D¯0Kπ∓ decays, where the D¯0
has been reconstructed from the wrong pair of tracks. Separate neural network (NN) classifiers[32]for eachD
decay mode are used to distinguish signal decays from combinatorial background. ThesPlottechnique[33], with the B0→Dπþπ− candidate mass as the discriminating variable, is used to obtain signal and background weights,
which are then used to train the networks. The networks are based on input variables that describe the topology of each decay channel, and that depend only weakly on the B
candidate mass and on the position of the candidate in theB
decay Dalitz plot. Loose requirements are made on the NN outputs in order to retain large samples for the DP analysis.

candidate mass and NN output. Unbinned information on the B candidate mass is used, while each sample is divided into five bins of the NN output that contain a similar number of signal, and varying numbers of background, decays[34,35].
In addition to B0→DKþπ− decays, components are included in the fit to account forB0sdecays to the same final state, partially reconstructed B0ðsÞ→DðÞKπ∓ back-grounds, misidentified B0→DðÞπþπ−, B0ðsÞ→DðÞKþK−,
¯
Λ0
b→DðÞp¯πþ, and Λ¯0b→DðÞpK¯ þ decays as well as combinatorial background. The modeling of the signal and background distributions inBcandidate mass is similar to that described in Ref.[27]. The sum of two Crystal Ball functions [36] is used for each of the correctly recon-structedBdecays, where the peak position and core width (i.e. the narrower of the two widths) are free parameters of the fit, while the B0s–B0 mass difference is fixed to its known value [37]. The fraction of the signal function contained in the core and the relative width of the two components are constrained within uncertainties to, and all other parameters are fixed to, their expected values obtained from simulated data, separately for each of the three D samples. An exponential function is used to describe combinatorial background, with the shape param-eter allowed to vary. Because of the loose NN output requirement it is necessary, in the D→Kþπ− sample, to account explicitly for partially combinatorial background where the final stateDKþ pair originates from aBdecay but is combined with a random pion; this is modeled with a nonparametric function. Nonparametric functions obtained from simulation based on known DP distributions[38–44]
are used to model the partially reconstructed and mis-identified B decays.
The fraction of signal decays in each NN output bin is allowed to vary freely in the fit; the correctly reconstructed
B0sdecays and misidentified backgrounds are taken to have the same NN output distribution as signal. The fractions of combinatorial and partially reconstructed backgrounds in each NN output bin are each allowed to vary freely. All yields are free parameters of the fit, except those for misidentified backgrounds which are constrained within expectation relative to the signal yield, since the relative branching fractions[37]and misidentification probabilities
[45]are well known.
The results of the fits are shown in Fig. 3, in which the NN output bins have been combined by weighting both the data and fit results by S=ðSþBÞ, where S (B) is the signal (background) yield in the signal window, defined as

πþπ− samples, are given in Tables I, II and III. In total,
there are284070signal decays within the signal window in theD→Kþπ− sample, while the corresponding values for theD→KþK− andD→πþπ− samples are33922 and16819. Theχ2=ndf values for the projections of the fits to the D→Kþπ−, D→KþK−, and D→πþπ− data sets are 171.5=223, 188.2=223, and 169.1=222, respec-tively, giving a totalχ2=ndf ¼528.8=668. Note that there are some bins with low numbers of entries which may result in this value not following exactly the expected χ2 distribution.
Projections of the fits separated by NN output bin in each sample are shown in Figs. 4–6. The fitted parameters obtained from all three data samples are reported in Table IV. The parameters μðBÞ, NðcoreÞ=NðtotalÞ, σðwideÞ=σðcoreÞ are, respectively, the peak position, the fraction of the signal function contained in the core, and the relative width of the two components of the B0 signal
shape. Quantities denoted N are total yields of each fit component, while those denotedfi
signalare fractions of the
signal in NN output bin i (with similar notation for the fractions of the partially reconstructed and combinatorial backgrounds). The NN output bin labels 1–5 range from the bin with the lowest to highest value ofS=B.
V. DALITZ PLOT ANALYSIS
Candidates within the signal region are used in the DP analysis. A simultaneous fit is performed to the samples with differentDdecays by using theJFIT method[46]as
implemented in the Laura++ package [47]. The likelihood
function contains signal and background terms, with yields in each NN output bin fixed according to the results obtained previously. The NN output bin with the lowest
S=Bvalue in theD→Kþπ− sample only is found not to contribute significantly to the sensitivity and is susceptible

In this analysis the x;j and y;j parameters are measured only for theKð892Þ0resonance, which has a large enough yield and a sufficiently well-understood line shape to allow reliable determinations of these parameters; therefore the j subscript is omitted hereafter. In addition, a component corresponding to the
B0→Ds1ð2700Þþπ− decay, which is mediated by theVub amplitude alone, is included in the fit with mass and width parameters fixed to their known values [37,49]and mag-nitude constrained according to expectation based on the
B0→Ds1ð2700ÞþD− decay rate[49].
The signal efficiency and backgrounds are modeled in the likelihood function, separately for each of the samples, following Refs. [27,38,39]. The DP distribution
of combinatorial background is obtained from a sideband in
Bcandidate mass, defined as5400ð5450Þ< mðDKþπ−Þ<
5900MeV=c2 for the samples with D→Kþπ−
(D→KþK− or πþπ−). The shapes of partially recon-structed and misidentified backgrounds are obtained from simulated samples based on known DP distributions
[38–44]. Combinatorial background is the largest compo-nent in the NN output bins with the lowest S=B values, while in the purest bins in the D→KþK− and πþπ− samples theB0s→DK−πþ background makes an impor-tant contribution. Background sources with yields below 2% relative to the signal in all NN bins are neglected, as indicated in TablesI,II andIII.
The fit procedure is validated with ensembles of pseu-doexperiments. In addition, samples of B0s→DK−πþ decays are selected for each of the D decays. These are used to test the fit with a model based on that of Refs.[38,39]
and whereDK− resonances have contributions only from

VI. SYSTEMATIC UNCERTAINTIES
[image:8.612.55.561.77.566.2]Sources of systematic uncertainty on the x and y parameters can be divided into two categories: experi-mental and model uncertainties. These are summarized in TablesVandVI. The former category includes effects due to knowledge of the signal and background yields in the signal region (denoted“S=B”in TableV), the variation of TABLE IV. Results for the unconstrained parameters obtained from the fits to the three data samples. Entries where no number is given are fixed to zero. Fractions markedare not varied in the fit, and give the difference between unity and the sum of the other fractions.

the efficiency (ϵ) across the Dalitz plot, the background Dalitz plot distributions (BDP) and fit bias, all of which are evaluated in similar ways to those described in Ref. [27]. Additionally, effects that may induce fake asymmetries, including asymmetry between B¯0 and B0
candidates in the background yields (Basym.) as well as asymmetries in the background Dalitz plot distributions (BDP asym.) and in the efficiency variation (ϵasym.) are accounted for. The largest source of uncertainty in this category arises from lack of knowledge of the DP distribution for the B0s →DK−πþ background.
Model uncertainties arise due to fixing parameters in the amplitude model (denoted “fixed pars” in TableVI), the addition or removal of marginal components, namely the Kð1410Þ0, Kð1680Þ0, D1ð2760Þ−, D3ð2760Þ−, and
Ds2ð2573Þþ resonances, in the Dalitz plot fit (add/rem.), and the use of alternative models for the Kþπ− S-wave and Dπ− nonresonant amplitudes (alt. mod.); all of these are evaluated as in Ref. [27]. The possibilities of
CP violation associated with the Ds1ð2700Þþ amplitude
(Ds CPV), and of independent CP violation param-eters in the two components of the Kþπ− S-wave amplitude [50] (KπS−wave CPV), are also accounted for.
The largest source of uncertainty in this category arises from changing the description of the Kþπ− S-wave. Other possible sources of systematic uncertainty, such as production asymmetry [51] or CP violation in the
D→KþK− and πþπ− decays [52–54], are found to be negligible.
The total uncertainties are obtained by combining all sources in quadrature. The leading sources of systematic uncertainty are expected to be reducible with larger data samples.

[image:10.612.122.494.200.679.2]The GammaCombo package [55] is used to evaluate
constraints from these results on γ and the hadronic parameters rB and δB associated with the B0→
DKð892Þ0 decay. A frequentist treatment referred to as the“plug-in”method, described in Refs. [56–59], is used. Figure10shows the results of likelihood scans for γ, rB, and δB. Figure 11 shows the two-dimensional 68% con-fidence level for each pair of observables from γ,rB, and δB. No value of γ is excluded at 95% confidence level (C.L.); the world-average value for γ [60,61] has a C.L. of 0.85.
TheB0→DKð892Þ0decay can also be used to deter-mine parameters sensitive to γ with a quasi-two-body approach, as has been done with D→KþK−, πþπ−
[62], Kπ∓, Kπ∓π0, Kπ∓πþπ− [62–64] and D→ K0Sπþπ− decays [65–68]. In the quasi-two-body analysis, the results depend on the effective hadronic parametersκ, ¯
rB, and δ¯B, which are, respectively, the coherence factor
and the relative magnitude and strong phase of theVuband
Vcbamplitudes averaged over the selected region of phase space[17]. Precise definitions are given in the Appendix. These parameters are calculated from the models forVcb andVub amplitudes obtained from the fit for theKð892Þ0 selection regionjmðKþπ−Þ−mKð892Þ0j<50MeV=c2and
jcosθK0j>0.4, wheremKð892Þ0 is the known value of the
Kð892Þ0mass[37]andθK0 is theK0helicity angle, i.e. the angle between theKþandDdirections in theKþπ−rest frame. To reduce correlations with the values for rB and δB determined from the DP analysis, the quantities
¯
RB¼r¯B=rB and Δδ¯B¼δ¯B−δB are calculated. The results are
κ¼0.958−þ00..010005þ0−0..045002;
¯
RB¼1.02−þ00..01030.06; Δδ¯B¼0.02þ0−0..02030.11;
where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic and are evaluated as described in the Appendix.
In summary, a data sample corresponding to3.0fb−1of
ppcollisions collected with the LHCb detector has been used to measure, for the first time, parameters sensitive to the angle γ from a Dalitz plot analysis of B0→DKþπ−
[image:11.612.52.297.133.266.2] [image:11.612.344.530.493.660.2]decays. No significant CP violation effect is seen. The results are consistent with, and supersede, the results for AKK;d ππ and RKK;d ππ from Ref. [62]. Parameters that are needed to determine γ from quasi-two-body analyses of B0→DKð892Þ0 decays are measured. These results can be combined with current and future measurements with the B0→DKð892Þ0 channel to obtain stronger constraints onγ.

All reported quantities are unconstrained in the fit, except that the D2ð2460Þ− compo-nent is fixed as a reference amplitude, and the magnitude of the Ds1ð2700Þþcomponent is constrained. TheKþπ−S-wave is the coherent sum of theK0ð1430Þ0and the nonresonantKπS-wave component[50].

which are obtained by replacing allrB;jbyrB;j=rB and all δB;j by δB;j−δB in Eqs.(A4)–(A6).
These quantities are determined from the results of the Dalitz plot analysis. An alternative fit is performed with x;jþiy;j, defined in Eq. (2), replaced by
rB;jexp½iðδB;jγÞ. The results of this fit are consistent with the values forγ,rB, andδBobtained from the fittedx and y, and are used to evaluate jAcbðpÞj, jAubðpÞj and δðpÞ at many points inside the selection window and thereby to determine κ, R¯B, and Δδ¯B. The procedure is repeated many times with both Vcb and Vub amplitude model parameters varied within their statistical
uncertainties from the fit, leading to the distributions shown in Fig.12. Since the transformations from the fitted model parameters to the quasi-two-body parameters are highly nonlinear, the reported central values correspond to the peak positions of these distributions, while positive and negative uncertainties are obtained by incrementally including the most probable values until 68% of all entries are covered.
Sources of systematic uncertainty are accounted for by evaluating their effects on the quasi-two-body parameters. The dominant sources are from the use of an alternative description of the Kþπ− S-wave, and from changing the treatment ofCP violation in theDs1ð2700Þþ component and theKþπ− S-wave. Most systematic uncertainties are symmetrized for consistency with the rest of the analysis, but asymmetric systematic uncertainties are reported onκ since this quantity is≤1 by definition.
