We searched for decays of bottom and bottom-strange mesons into pairs of charged light hadrons (pions or kaons) in a sample corresponding to 180 inverse picobarns of proton-antiproton collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV, collected by the upgraded Collider Detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. A total signal of approximately 900 events was reconstructed, and the relative branching fractions of each decay mode were determined with a likelihood fit. We report the first observation of the decay of a bottom-strange meson into two charged kaons. We measured the direct CP-violating asymmet...
We searched for decays of bottom and bottom-strange mesons into pairs of charged light hadrons (pions or kaons) in a sample corresponding to 180 inverse picobarns of proton-antiproton collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV, collected by the upgraded Collider Detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. A total signal of approximately 900 events was reconstructed, and the relative branching fractions of each decay mode were determined with a likelihood fit. We report the first observation of the decay of a bottom-strange meson into two charged kaons. We measured the direct CP-violating asymmetry in the decay of a bottom meson into a charged pion and a kaon in agreement with world average values. These measurements are performed for the first time in a hadron collider. No evidence for other modes was found, and we set upper limits to the decay rates of rarer modes.
