First search for the weak radiative decays Λ$^+_c$ → Σ + γ and Ξ$^0_c$ → Ξ 0 γ
We present the first search for the weak radiative decays Λ$^+_c$ → Σ + γ and Ξ$^0_c$ → Ξ 0 γ using a data sample of 980 fb -1 collected by the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e + e - collider. There are no evident Λ$^+_c$ → Σ + γ or Ξ$^0_c$ → Ξ 0 γ signals. Taking the decays Λ$^+_c$ → pK - π + and Ξ$^0_c$ → Ξ - π + as normalization channels, the upper limits at 90% credibility level on the ratios of branching fractions $\mathcal{B}$(Λ$^+_c$ → Σ + γ)/$\mathcal{B}$(Λ$^+_c$ → pK - π + ) < 4.0 x 10 -3 and $\mathcal{B}$(Ξ$^0_c$ → Ξ 0 γ)/$\mathcal{B}$(Ξ$^0_c$ → Ξ - π + ) < 1.2 x 10 -2 are determined. We obtain the upper limits at 90% credibility level on the absolute branching fractions $\mathcal{B}$(Λ$^+_c$ → Σ + γ) < 2.6 x 10 -4 and $\mathcal{B}$(Ξ$^0_c$ → Ξ 0 γ) < 1.8 x 10 -4 .
Neutron detection and application with a novel 3D-projection scintillator tracker in the future long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments
Neutrino oscillation experiments require a precise measurement of the neutrino energy. However, the kinematic detection of the final-state neutron in the neutrino interaction is missing in current neutrino oscillation experiments. The missing neutron kinematic detection results in a smaller detected neutrino energy than the true neutrino energy. A novel 3D-projection scintillator tracker, which consists of roughly ten million active cubes covered with an optical reflector, is capable of measuring the neutron kinetic energy and direction on an event-by-event basis using the time-of-flight technique thanks to the fast timing, fine granularity, and high light yield. The $\overline{v}$ μ interactions tend to produce neutrons in the final state. By measuring the neutron kinetic energy, the $\overline{v}$ μ energy can be reconstructed better, allowing a tighter incoming neutrino flux constraint. This article shows the detector's ability to reconstruct neutron kinetic energy and the $\overline{v}$ μ flux constraint achieved by selecting the charged-current interactions without mesons or protons in the final state.
Measurement of the branching fractions for Cabibbo-suppressed decays D + → K + K - π + π 0 and D ( s ) + → K + π - π + π 0 at Belle
We present measurements of the branching fractions for the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays and , and the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay , based on of data recorded by the Belle experiment at the KEKB e + e - collider. We measure these modes relative to the Cabibbo-favored modes D + → K - π + π + π 0 and D$^{+}_{s}$ → K + K - π + π 0 . Our results for the ratios of branching fractions are $\mathscr{B}$(D + →K + K - π + π 0 )/$\mathscr{B}$(D + → K - π + π + π 0 ) =(11.32±0.13±0.26)%, $\mathscr{B}$(D + →K + π - π + π 0 )/$\mathscr{B}$(D + →K - π + π + π 0 ) =(1.68±0.11±0.03)%, and $\mathscr{B}$(D$^{+}_{s}$ → K + π - π + π 0 )/$\mathscr{B}$(D$^{+}_{s}$ → K + K - π + π 0 ) =(17.13±0.62±0.51)%, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The second value corresponds to (5.83 ±0.42) ×tan 4 θ C , where θ C is the Cabibbo angle; this value is larger than other measured ratios of branching fractions for a doubly Cabibbo-suppressed charm decay to a Cabibbo-favored decay. Multiplying these results by world average values for $\mathscr{B}$(D + → K - π + π + π 0 ) and $\mathscr{B}$(D$^{+}_{s}$ → K + K - π + π 0 ) yields $\mathscr{B}$( + →K + K - π + π 0 ) = (7.08±0.08±0.16±0.20)×10 -3 , $\mathscr{B}$(D + → K + π - π + π 0 ) =(1.05±0.07±0.02±0.03)×10 -3 , and $\mathscr{B}$(D$^{+}_{s}$ → K + π - π + π 0 ) =(9.44±0.34±0.28±0.32)×10 -3 , where the third uncertainty is due to the branching fraction of the normalization mode. The first two results are consistent with, but more precise than, the current world averages. The last result is the first measurement of this branching fraction.
Measurement of the branching fraction and search for CP violation in D 0 → K $^{0}_{S}$ K $^{0}_{S}$ π + π - decays at Belle
We measure the branching fraction for the Cabibbo-suppressed decay D 0 → K $^{0}_{S}$ K $^{0}_{S}$ π + π - and search for CP violation via a measurement of the CP asymmetry A CP as well as the T-odd triple-product asymmetry a$^{T}_{CP}$. We use 922 fb -1 of data recorded by the Belle experiment, which ran at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e + e - collider. The branching fraction is measured relative to the Cabibbo-favored normalization channel D 0 → K $^{0}_{S}$ π + π - ; the result is $\mathscr{B}$( D 0 → K $^{0}_{S}$ K $^{0}_{S}$ π + π - )=[4.79±0.08(stat)±0.10(syst)±0.31(norm)]×10 -4 , where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is from uncertainty in the normalization channel. We also measure A CP =[-2.51±1.44(stat)$^{+0.11}_{-0.10}$(syst)]%, and a$^{T}_{CP}$=[-1.95±1.42(stat)$^{+0.14}_{-0.12}$(syst)]%. These results show no evidence of CP violation.

Measurement of the branching fraction and CP asymmetry of B 0 →π 0 π 0 decays using 198×10 6 $B\overline{B}$ pairs in Belle II data
We report measurements of the branching fraction and C P asymmetry in B 0 → π 0 π 0 decays reconstructed at Belle II in an electron-positron collision sample containing 198 × 10 6 B B ¯ pairs. We measure a branching fraction B ( B 0 → π 0 π 0 ) = ( 1.38 ± 0.27 ± 0.22 ) × 10 - 6 and a C P asymmetry A C P ( B 0 → π 0 π 0 ) = - 0.14 ± 0.46 ± 0.07 , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.
