(a) Tree level and (b) penguin diagram for $\overline{ B }{} {}^0 $ decays into $J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$.

Invariant mass of $J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$ combinations with $ K ^0_{\rm\scriptscriptstyle S} $ veto. The data have been fitted with double-Crystal ball signal and several background functions. The (purple) solid line shows the $\overline{ B }{} {}^0 $ signal, the (brown) dotted line shows the combinatorial background, the (green) short-dashed shows the $B^-$ background, the (red) dot-dashed is $\overline{ B }{} {}^0_ s \rightarrow J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$, the (light blue) long-dashed is the sum of $\overline{ B }{} {}^0_ s \rightarrow J/\psi\eta'$, $\overline{ B }{} {}^0_ s \rightarrow J/\psi\phi$ when $\phi\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ backgrounds and the $\Lambda ^0_ b \rightarrow { J \mskip -3mu/\mskip -2mu\psi \mskip 2mu} K^- p$ reflection, the (black) dot-long dashed is the $\overline{ B }{} {}^0 \rightarrow J/\psi K^- \pi^+$ reflection and the (blue) solid line is the total.

Fit projection of $m(\pi^+\pi^-)$ showing the different resonant contributions in the "Best model" [7]. The $ K ^0_{\rm\scriptscriptstyle S}$ veto causes the absence of events near 500 MeV. The shape variation near 780 MeV is due to interference between the $\rho(770)$ and $\omega(782)$ states. The total fit is the sum of the individual components plus their interferences.

Decay time distribution of $\optbar{ B}{} ^0\rightarrow { J \mskip -3mu/\mskip -2mu\psi \mskip 2mu} \pi^+\pi^-$ candidates. The signal component is shown with a (red) dashed line, the background with a (black) dotted line, and the (blue) solid line represents the total. The lower plot shows the normalized residual distribution.

The magnitude of the penguin induced shift $\delta_P$ on the $ C P$ -violating phase in favoured decays, assuming SU(3) flavour symmetry, shown in grey or colour scale in degrees, as a function of the measured difference $\Delta2\beta_f$ ($x$-axis) and $\alpha_{ C P }=\frac{1-|\lambda_f|}{1+|\lambda_f|}$ ($y$-axis). Here we use fixed values for $\gamma=70^{\circ}$ and $\epsilon=0.0534$. The projected 68% (solid) and 95% (dashed) confidence levels on $\delta_P$ are shown by the egg-shaped contours.

The limit on the penguin induced phase change $\delta_P$ as a function of the difference in the penguin amplitude strong phases in $b\rightarrow c\bar{c}s$ and $b\rightarrow c\bar{c}d$ transitions $\theta-\theta'$, for $a=a'$.

Contours corresponding to 68% (dashed) and 95% (solid) confidence levels for ndf of two, respectively, for the penguin amplitude parameters $a^\prime$ and $\theta^\prime$.
