CP Violation of Baryon Decays with N Scatterings

There is a long-standing puzzle that the CP violation (CPV) in the baryon systems has never been well established in experiments, while the CPV of mesons have been observed by decades. In this paper, we propose that the CPV of baryon decays can be generated with the rescatterings of a nucleon and a pion into some final states, i. e. N N or N. Benefited by the fruitful data of N scatterings, we can model-independently analyse the strong phases of b-baryon decays using the partial wave amplitudes of N scatterings. Avoiding the most difficult problem of non-perturbative dynamics, it makes a great advantage to predict the CPV of baryon decays with a relatively reliable understanding of the decay dynamics. We study the processes of b⁰ (p^+^-) h^- and (p⁰) h^- with h= or K. It is found that the global CPV of the above processes in the invariant mass regions of N scatterings are at the order of several percent. More importantly, the local CPV in some regions of the Dalitz plots can reach the order of 10\%, or be even larger. Considering the predicted results and the experimental data samples, we strong suggest to measure the CPV of b⁰ (p^+^-) K^-, which has a large possibility to achieve the first observation of CPV in the baryon system.
