Abstract

The Ξ0 asymmetry parameters are measured using entangled quantum Ξ0Ξ¯0 pairs from a sample of (448.1±2.9)×106ψ(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII. The relative phase between the transition amplitudes of the Ξ0Ξ¯0 helicity states is measured to be ΔΦ=0.050±0.150±0.020rad, which implies that there is no obvious polarization at the current level of statistics. The decay parameters of the Ξ0 hyperon (αΞ0,αΞ¯0,ϕΞ0,ϕΞ¯0) and the angular distribution parameter [αψ(3686)] and ΔΦ are measured simultaneously for the first time. In addition, the CP asymmetry observables are determined to be ACPΞ0=(αΞ0+αΞ¯0)/(αΞ0αΞ¯0)=0.007±0.082±0.025 and ΔϕCPΞ0=(ϕΞ0+ϕΞ¯0)/2=0.079±0.082±0.010rad, which are consistent with CP conservation.
