Branching fractions and direct CP violation in B -> PP(PV) decays

TL;DR

This paper reports on searches for B meson decays into charmless meson pairs, analyzing data from B-factory experiments to measure branching fractions and CP violation in PP and PV decay modes.

Contribution

It provides new experimental results on B meson decay modes into charmless mesons using data from BABAR, Belle, and CLEO, focusing on CP violation and decay rates.

Findings

Measured branching fractions for B -> PP and B -> PV decays.

Set limits on direct CP violation in these decay modes.

Compared results across different experiments and decay channels.

Abstract

I present the results of searches for B meson decays into two charmless mesons. I take into account final states made up of two pseudo-scalar (PP) or one pseudo-scalar and one vector (PV). The measurements use the data samples collected and analysed by the B-factory experiments at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance energy: BABAR, Belle and CLEO.
