Description

Oscillation effects in B0→KSD0 and related processes are considered to determine δ≡β-α+π=2β+γ. We suggest that D0 decays to CP eigenstates used in concert with inclusive D0 decays provide a powerful method for determining δ cleanly. The CP asymmetry is expected to be (less-or-similar sign)40% for D0 decays to non-CP eigenstates and (less-or-similar sign)80% for decays to CP eigenstates. This method can lead to a fairly accurate determination of δ with O(108-109) B mesons
