Search for CPT Violation with the FOCUS Experiment and Measurement of Λ<sub>b</sub> lifetime in the decay Λ<sub>b</sub> → J / Ψ Lambda with the D0 Experiment
Abstract:This dissertation describes two different projects from two different experiments. We have performed a search for CPT violation in neutral charm meson oscillations using data from the FOCUS Experiment. While flavor mixing in the charm sector is predicted to be small in the Standard Model, it is still possible to investigate CPT violation through a study of the proper time dependence of a CPT asymmetry in right-sign decay rates for D 0 → K − π + and D0 → K + π − . This asymmetry is related to the CPT violating … Show more
