CP violation in two-meson Tau decays induced by heavy new physics

Abstract We apply the effective field theory formalism that was used to study CP violation induced by heavy new physics in the τ → K S πν τ decays to the other two-meson tau decay channels. We focus on the rate and the forward-backward asymmetries, that are predicted using current bounds on the comp...

description Abstract We apply the effective field theory formalism that was used to study CP violation induced by heavy new physics in the τ → K S πν τ decays to the other two-meson tau decay channels. We focus on the rate and the forward-backward asymmetries, that are predicted using current bounds on the complex Wilson coefficients of the effective Lagrangian. We discuss our outcomes for the modes with (K/π)π 0 and KK S , that can be studied at Belle-II and a super-tau-charm facility. Our main finding is that current and forthcoming experiments would be sensitive to the maximum allowed CP rate asymmetry in the K ± K S modes if a precision of 5% is reached on this observable, that can check as well the BaBar anomaly in K S π. For the π ± π 0 channels, new physics would be difficult to probe at present. Disentangling new sources of CP violation would be most challenging in K ± π 0 and the other modes.
