Abstract: We search for the rare decay �+ →�+⁢�⁢ ¯ � in a 362  fb−1 sample of electron-positron collisions at the ϒ⁡(4⁢�) resonance collected with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. We use the inclusive properties of the accompanying � meson in ϒ⁡(4⁢�)→�⁢ ¯ � events to suppress background from other decays of the signal � candidate and light-quark pair production. We validate the measurement with an auxiliary analysis based on a conventional hadronic reconstruction of the accompanying � meson. For background suppression, we exploit distinct signal features using machine learning methods tuned with simulated data. The signal-reconstruction efficiency and background suppression are validated through various control channels. The branching fraction is extracted in a maximum likelihood fit. Our inclusive and hadronic analyses yield consistent results for the �+ →�+⁢�⁢ ¯ � branching fraction of [2.7±0.5⁢(stat)±0.5⁢(syst)] ×10−5 and [1.1+0.9 −0.8⁢(stat)+0.8 −0.5⁢(syst)] ×10−5, respectively. Combining the results, we determine the branching fraction of the decay �+ →�+⁢�⁢ ¯ � to be [2.3±0.5⁢(stat)+0.5 −0.4⁢(syst)] ×10−5, providing the first evidence for this decay at 3.5 standard deviations. The combined result is 2.7 standard deviations above the standard model expectation.

Measurement of the branching fraction of the decay ▫$B^- \to D^0 \rho(770)^-$▫ at Belle II
Ichiro Adachi, Marko Bračko, Paul Feichtinger, Eldar Ganiev, Gaetano de Marino, Samo Korpar, Peter Križan, Manca Mrvar, Anja Novosel, Rok Pestotnik, Tomaž Podobnik, Ihor Prudiiev, Marko Starič, Luka Šantelj, Valentina Zhukova, 2024, original scientific article

Abstract: We measure the branching fraction of the decay �−→�0⁢�⁢(770)− using data collected with the Belle II detector. The data contain 387 million �⁢ ¯ � pairs produced in �+⁢�− collisions at the ϒ⁡(4⁢�) resonance. We reconstruct 8360±180 decays from an analysis of the distributions of the �− energy and the �⁢(770)− helicity angle. We determine the branching fraction to be (0.939±0.021⁢(stat)±0.050⁢(syst))%, in agreement with previous results. Our measurement improves the relative precision of the world average by more than a factor of two.
