Direct CPV in two-body and multi-body charm decays at LHCb

Abstract

The Standard Model predicts CP asymmetries in charm decays of O(10βˆ’3)O(10^{-3}) and the observation of significantly larger CP violation could indicate non-Standard Model physics effects. During 2011 and 2012, the LHCb experiment collected a sample corresponding to 3/fb yielding the world's largest sample of decays of charmed hadrons. This allowed the CP violation in charm to be studied with unprecedented precision in many two- body and multibody decay modes. The most recent LHCb searches for direct CP violation are presented in these proceedings.Comment: 6 pages, Contribution to proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on the CKM Unitarity Triangle (CKM 2014), Vienna, Austria, September 8-12, 201
