Abstract

We report results on studies of CP violation in the three-body charmless decay B+- => K+-pi+-pi-+. Evidence at the 3.9sigma level for large direct CP violation in B+- => rho(770)0K+- is found. This is the first evidence for CP violation in a charged meson decay. The analysis is performed using Dalitz analysis technique with a data sample that contains 386 million BBbar pairs collected near the Y(4S) resonance, with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric energy e+ e- collider.
