# Measurement of CP violation in B0→D+D− decays

Abstract : The CP violation observables S and C in the decay channel B0→D+D− are determined from a sample of proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, collected by the LHCb experiment and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb−1. The observable S describes CP violation in the interference between mixing and the decay amplitude, and C parametrizes direct CP violation in the decay. The following values are obtained from a flavour-tagged, decay-time-dependent analysis: SC=−0.54+0.17−0.16(stat)±0.05(syst),=0.26+0.18−0.17(stat)±0.02(syst). These values constrain higher-order Standard Model corrections to be small.
