We report a feasibility study of $CP$ violation of $tau^{-}rightarrow K_{S}pi^{-} u_{tau}$ decay at a Super Tau Charm Facility~(STCF).With an expected luminosity of 1~ab$^{-1}$ collected by STCF per year at a center-of-mass energy of 4.26 GeV, the statistical sensitivity for the $CP$ violation is determined to be of order $9.7times10^{-4}$ by measuring the decay-rate difference between $tau^{+}rightarrow K_{S}pi^{+}bar{ u}_{tau}$ and $tau^{-}rightarrow K_{S}pi^{-} u_{tau}$. The analysis is performed using a reliable fast simulation software package, which can describe the detector responses properly and vary the responses flexibly for further optimization. Moreover, the energy-dependent efficiencies for reconstructing $tau^{-}rightarrow K_{S}pi^{-} u_{tau}$ are presented and the expected $CP$ sensitivity is proportional to $1/sqrt{mathcal{L}}$ in the energy region from 4.0 to 5.0 GeV. The sensitivity of $CP$ violation is of order $3.1times10^{-4}$ with 10~ab$^{-1}$ integrated luminosity, which is equivalent to ten years data taking in this energy region at STCF.
The potential of performing a combined analysis of the strangeness-changing decays $tau^{-}to K_{S}pi^{-} u_{tau}$ and $tau^{-}to K^{-}eta u_{tau}$ for unveiling the $K^{*}(1410)$ resonance pole parameters is illustrated. Our study is carried out within the framework of Chiral Perturbation Theory, including resonances as explicit degrees of freedom. Resummation of final state interactions are considered through a dispersive parameterization of the required form factors. A considerable improvement in the determination of the pole position with mass $M_{K^{*}(1410)}=1304pm17$ MeV and width $Gamma_{K^{*}(1410)}=171pm62$ MeV is obtained.
Present experimental datas have shown a 3.8$sigma$ level discrepancy with the standard model in $overline{B}to D^{(*)}taubar{ u}_{tau}$. Some new physics models have been considered to explain this discrepancy possibly with new source of the CP violation. In this paper, we construct CP violating observables by using multi-pion decays in $Bto Dtau u_{tau}$, and estimate sensitivity of these observables to generic CP violating operators. We also discuss possibilities of CP violation in leptoquark models and in 2HDM of type-III.
A general analysis of possible violation of CP in processes like $tau to Kpi u$, for unpolarized $tau$ is presented. In this paper, we derive the new contributions to the effective Hamiltonian governs $vertDelta S vert=1$ semileptonic tau decays in the framework of two Higgs doublet model with generic Yukawa structure and Leptoquarks models. Within these models, we list all operators, in the effective Hamiltonian and provide analytical expression for their corresponding Wilson coefficients. Moreover, we analyze the role of the different contributions, originating from the scalar, vecor and tensor hadronic currents, in generating direct CP asymmetry in the decay rate of $tau^-to K^-pi^0 u_tau$. We show that non vanishing direct CP asymmetry in the decay rate of $tau^-to K^-pi^0 u_tau$ can be generated due to the presence of both, the weak phase in the Wilson coefficient corresponding to the tensor operator and the strong phase difference resulting from the interference between the form factors expressing the matrix elements of the vector and tensor hadronic currents. After taking into account all relevant constraints, we find that the generated direct CP asymmetry is of order $10^{-8}$ which is several orders of magnitude larger than the standard model prediction. We show also that, in two Higgs doublet model with generic Yukawa structure , direct local or non integrated CP violation can be as large as $0.3$ % not far from experimental possibilities. This kind of asymmetry can be generated due to the interference between vector and scalar contributions with different weak phases which is not the case in the SM.
We present the first measurements of branching fractions of rare tau-lepton decays, $tau^- rightarrow pi^- u_{tau} ell^+ ell^-$ ($ell = e$ or $mu$), using a data sample corresponding to 562 fb$^{-1}$ collected at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. The $tau^- rightarrow pi^- u_tau e^+ e^-$ decay is observed for the first time with 7.0$sigma$ significance. The partial branching fraction determined by the structure-dependent mechanisms mediated by either a vector or an axial-vector current for the mass region $M_{pi e e}>1.05$ GeV/$c^2$ is measured to be $mathcal{B}(tau^-rightarrow pi^- u_tau e^+ e^-)[M_{pi^- e^+ e^-}>1.05~{rm GeV}/c^2] = (5.90 pm 0.53 pm 0.85 pm 0.11) times 10^{-6}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is due to the model dependence. In the full phase space, due to the different detection efficiencies for the structure-dependent mechanisms mediated by axial-vector and vector currents, the branching fraction varies from $mathcal{B}_{A}(tau^-rightarrow pi^- u_tau e^+ e^-) = (1.46 pm 0.13 pm 0.21) times 10^{-5}$ to $mathcal{B}_{V}(tau^-rightarrow pi^- u_tau e^+ e^-) = (3.01 pm 0.27 pm 0.43) times 10^{-5}$, respectively. An upper limit is set on the branching fraction of the $tau^- rightarrow pi^- u_tau mu^+ mu^-$ decay, $mathcal{B}(tau^-rightarrow pi^- u_tau mu^+ mu^-) < 1.14 times 10^{-5}$, at the 90% confidence level.
In supersymmetry with large tan(beta) the decays B0(B0bar) -> l+l- are dominated by the scalar and pseudoscalar Higgs penguin diagrams leading to strong enhancement of leptonic decay rates with potentially large CP asymmetries in the tau+tau- decay modes measurable in BELLE or BaBar experiments. The TAUOLA tau-lepton decay library supplemented by its universal interface can efficiently be used to search for B0(B0bar) -> tau+tau- decays, and to investigate how the CP asymmetry is reflected in realistic experimental observables.
