Abstract

We utilize the universality of pion-pion ( <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <a:mi>π</a:mi> <a:mi>π</a:mi> </a:math> ) final-state interactions at small invariant masses to understand the enhanced localized <c:math xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <c:mrow> <c:mi>C</c:mi> <c:mi>P</c:mi> </c:mrow> </c:math> violation in <e:math xmlns:e="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"> <e:msup> <e:mi>B</e:mi> <e:mo>±</e:mo> </e:msup> <e:mo stretchy="false">→</e:mo> <e:msup> <e:mi>K</e:mi> <e:mo>±</e:mo> </e:msup> <e:msup> <e:mi>π</e:mi> <e:mo>+</e:mo> </e:msup> <e:msup> <e:mi>π</e:mi> <e:mo>−</e:mo> </e:msup> </e:math> , using a dispersive approach.
