Abstract:
We study the hadronic decay modes , involving a scalar and a pseudoscalar meson in the final state. These decay modes are dominated by the loop induced penguins along with a small tree level transition (for ) and annihilation diagrams. Therefore, the standard model expectation of direct CP violation is negligibly small and the mixing induced CP violation parameter in the mode is expected to give the same value of , as extracted from but with opposite sign. Using the generalized factorization approach we find the direct CP violation in the decay mode to be of the order of few percent. We then study the effect of the R-parity violating supersymmetric model and show that the direct CP violating asymmetry in could be as large as and the mixing induced CP asymmetry in (i.e., ) could deviate significantly from that of .- 12.60.Jv
