New Physics in B -> J/Psi K^*
/ Abstract
Direct CP violation in B -> J/Psi K is a clean test for new physics. However, the direct CP asymmetry will vanish if the new-physics amplitude has the same strong phase as the standard-model amplitude. We show that this type of new physics can still be detected via an angular analysis of the sister decay mode B -> J/Psi K^*. Time-dependent measurements and tagging are not necessary. Should new physics be found, this angular analysis can be used to obtain information about the size of the new-physics parameters.
