Amplitude analysis of B±→[pi]± K+K− decays
The first amplitude analysis of the $B^\pm \to \pi^\pm K^+ K^-$ decay is reported based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions recorded in 2011 and 2012 with the LHCb detector. The data is found to be best described by a coherent sum of five re...

| Summary: | The first amplitude analysis of the $B^\pm \to \pi^\pm K^+ K^-$ decay is reported based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions recorded in 2011 and 2012 with the LHCb detector. The data is found to be best described by a coherent sum of five resonant structures plus a nonresonant component and a contribution from $\pi\pi \leftrightarrow KK$ $S$-wave rescattering. The dominant contributions in the $\pi^\pm K^\mp$ and $K^{+}K^{-}$ systems are the nonresonant and the $B^\pm \to \rho(1450)^{0}\pi^{\pm}$ amplitudes, respectively, with fit fractions around $30\%$. For the rescattering contribution, a sizeable fit fraction is observed. This component has the largest $CP$ asymmetry reported to date for a single amplitude of $(-66 \pm 4 \pm 2)\%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. No significant $CP$ violation is observed in the other contributions. |
