A search for $CP$ violation in charmless four-body decays of $Lambda_b$ and $Xi_b^0$ baryons with a proton and three charged mesons in the final state is performed. To cancel out production and detection charge-asymmetry effects, the search is carried out by measuring the difference between the $CP$ asymmetries in a charmless decay and in a decay with an intermediate charmed baryon with the same particles in the final state. The data sample used was recorded in 2011 and 2012 with the LHCb detector and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $3 {rm fb}^{-1}$. A total of 18 $CP$ asymmetries are considered, either accounting for the full phase space of the decays or exploring specific regions of the decay kinematics. No significant $CP$-violation effect is observed in any of the measurements.

A search for charmless four-body decays of $Lambda_{b}^{0}$ and $Xi_{b}^{0}$ baryons with a proton and three charged mesons (either kaons or pions) in the final state is performed. The data sample used was recorded in 2011 and 2012 with the LHCb experiment and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$. Six decay modes are observed, among which $Lambda_{b}^{0} to pK^{-}pi^{+}pi^{-}$, $Lambda_{b}^{0} to pK^{-}K^{+}K^{-}$, $Xi_{b}^{0} to pK^{-}pi^{+}pi^{-}$ and $Xi_{b}^{0} to pK^{-} pi^{+}K^{-}$ are established for the first time. Their branching fractions (including the ratio of hadronisation fractions in the case of the $Xi_{b}^{0}$ baryon) are determined relative to the $Lambda_{b}^{0} to Lambda_{c}^{+}pi^{-}$ decay.
We report final measurements of direct $mathit{CP}$--violating asymmetries in charmless decays of neutral bottom hadrons to pairs of charged hadrons with the upgraded Collider Detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. Using the complete $sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV proton-antiproton collisions data set, corresponding to 9.3 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, we measure $mathcal{A}(Lambda^0_b rightarrow ppi^{-}) = +0.06 pm 0.07mathrm{(stat)} pm 0.03mathrm{(syst)}$ and $mathcal{A}(Lambda^0_b rightarrow pK^{-}) = -0.10 pm 0.08mathrm{(stat)} pm 0.04mathrm{(syst)}$, compatible with no asymmetry. In addition we measure the $mathit{CP}$--violating asymmetries in $B^0_s rightarrow K^{-}pi^{+}$ and $B^0 rightarrow K^{+}pi^{-}$ decays to be $mathcal{A}(B^0_s rightarrow K^{-}pi^{+}) = +0.22 pm 0.07mathrm{stat)} pm 0.02mathrm{(syst)}$ and $mathcal{A}(B^0 rightarrow K^{+}pi^{-}) = -0.083pm 0.013 mathrm{(stat)} pm 0.004mathrm{(syst)}$, respectively, which are significantly different from zero and consistent with current world averages.
We report on first measurements of branching fractions~($mathcal{B}$) and CP-violating charge asymmetries~($mathcal{A}$) in charmless $B$ decays at Belle~II. We use a sample of electron-positron collisions collected in 2019 and 2020 at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance and corresponding to $34.6$,fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. We use simulation to determine optimized event selections. The $Delta E$ distributions of the resulting samples, restricted in $M_{rm bc}$, are fit to determine signal yields. Signal yields are corrected for efficiencies determined from simulation and control data samples to obtain branching fractions and CP-violating asymmetries for flavour-specific channels. These are the first measurements in charmless decays reported by Belle~II. Results are compatible with known determinations and show detector performance comparable with the best Belle results offering a reliable basis to assess projections for future reach.
We report measurements of CP violation parameters in $B^0 to K^0 pi^0$ decays based on a data sample of $657 times 10^6 Bbar{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+ e^-$ asymmetric-energy collider. We use $B^0 to K^0_S pi^0$ decays for both mixing-induced and direct $CP$ violating asymmetry measurements and $B^0 to K^0_L pi^0$ decays for the direct CP violation measurement. The CP violation parameters obtained are $sin 2 phi_1^{rm eff} = +0.67 pm 0.31{(stat)} pm 0.08 {(syst)}$ and $mathcal{A}_{K^0 pi^0} = +0.14 pm 0.13{(stat)} pm 0.06 {(syst)}$. The branching fraction of $B^0 to K^0 pi^0$ decay is measured to be $mathcal{B}(B^0 to K^0 pi^0) = (8.7pm0.5 (rm{stat.})pm0.6 (rm{syst.}))times 10^{-6}$. The observed $mathcal{A}_{K^0 pi^0}$ value differs by 1.9 standard deviations from the value expected from an isospin sum rule.
Bottom baryons decaying to a J/psi meson and a hyperon are reconstructed using 1.0 fb^{-1} of data collected in 2011 with the LHCb detector. Significant Lambda_b^0 rightarrow J/psi Lambda, Xi_b^-rightarrow J/psi Xi^- and Omega_b^- rightarrow J/psi Omega^- signals are observed and the corresponding masses are measured to be M(Lambda_b^0) = 5619.53 pm 0.13 (stat) pm 0.45 (syst) MeV/c^2, M(Xi_b^-) = 5795.8 pm 0.9 (stat) pm 0.4 (syst) MeV/c^2, M(Omega_b^-) = 6046.0 pm 2.2 (stat) pm 0.5 (syst) MeV/c^2, while the differences with respect to the Lambda_b^0 mass are M(Xi_b^-)-M(Lambda_b^0) = 176.2 pm 0.9 (stat) pm 0.1 (syst) MeV/c^2, M(Omega_b^-)-M(Lambda_b^0) = 426.4 pm 2.2 (stat) pm 0.4 (syst) MeV/c^2. These are the most precise mass measurements of the Lambda_b^0, Xi_b^- and Omega_b^- baryons to date. Averaging the above Lambda_b^0 mass measurement with that published by LHCb using 35 pb^{-1} of data collected in 2010 yields M(Lambda_b^0) = 5619.44 pm 0.13 (stat) pm 0.38 (syst) MeV/c^2.
