What is CP violation?
Why is it important?
Wht did they do ?
How ?
𝐷0 ∶ 𝑐𝑢
• Calculated the value of CP violation
𝐷0 ∶ 𝑢𝑐
• Combined it with previous
LHCb result.

Results
combining these with previous LHCb results
differs from zero by more than 5 standard deviation
Future?
• more measurements
(with charmed particles)
• theoretical improvements
