Techniques for studies of unbinned model independent CP violation — •Nicholas Bedford, Constantin Weisser, Chris Parkes, Marco Gersabeck, Jolanta Brodzicka, and Shanzhen Chen — University of Manchester, UK

Charge-Parity (CP) violation is a known part of the Standard Model and has been observed and measured in both the B and K meson systems. The observed levels, however, are insufficient to explain the observed matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe, and so other sources need to be found. One area of current investigation is the D meson system, where predicted levels of CP violation are much lower than in the B and K meson systems. This means that more sensitive methods are required when searching for CP violation in this system. Several unbinned model independent methods have been proposed for this purpose, all of which need to be optimised and their sensitivities compared.
