Measurements of the angular distributions in the decays B?K( ^*)µ ⁺µ ^- at CDF

Abstract: We report an indirect search for nonstandard model physics using the flavor-changing neutral current decays B ! KðÞþ. We reconstruct the decays and measure their angular distributions, as a function of q2 ¼ M2 c2, where M is the dimuon mass, in pp collisions at ffiffis p ¼ 1:96 TeV using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6:8 fb1. The transverse polarization asymmetry Að2ÞT and the time-reversal-odd charge-and-parity asymmetry Aim are measured for the first time, together with the K longitudinal polarization fraction FL and the muon forward-backward asymmetry AFB for the decays B0 ! K0þ and Bþ ! Kþþ. The B ! Kþ forward-backward asymmetry in the most sensitive kinematic regime, 1 q2 < 6 GeV2=c2, is measured to be AFB ¼ 0:29þ0:20 0:23ðstatÞ 0:07ðsystÞ, the most precise result to date. No deviations from the standard model predictions are observed.
