Abstract

A measurement of charm mixing and CP-violating parameters is reported, using B̅ →D0(→ KS0π+π-)⁢μ-ν̅μX decays reconstructed in proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment during the years 2016 to 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fb-1. The measured mixing and CP-violating parameters are
xCP = [4.29 ± 1.48 (stat) ± 0.26(syst)] × 10-3,
yCP = [12.61 ± 3.12 (stat) ± 0.83(syst)] × 10-3,
Δx = [-0.77 ± 0.93 (stat) ± 0.28(syst)] × 10-3,
Δy = [3.01 ± 1.92 (stat) ± 0.26(syst)] × 10-3.
The results are complementary to and consistent with previous measurements. A combination with the recent LHCb analysis of D∗+→ D0(→ KS0π+π-+ decays is reported.
