We report a study of the decay D0→K0SK0S using 921 fb−1 of data collected at or near the Υ(4S) and Υ(5S) resonances with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy e+e− collider. The measured time-integrated CP asymmetry is ACP(D0→K0SK0S)=(−0.02±1.53±0.02±0.17)%, and the branching fraction is B(D0→K0SK0S)=(1.321±0.023±0.036±0.044)×10−4, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is due to the normalization mode (D0→K0Sπ0). These results are significantly more precise than previous measurements available for this mode. The ACP measurement is consistent with the standard model expectation.

We report the first observation of the radiative charm decay D0→ρ0γ and the first search for CP violation in decays D0→ρ0γ, ϕγ, and ¯K*0(892)γ, using a data sample of 943 fb−1 collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e− collider. The branching fraction is measured to be B(D0→ρ0γ)=(1.77±0.30±0.07)×10−5, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The obtained CP asymmetries ACP(D0→ρ0γ)=+0.056±0.152±0.006, ACP(D0→ϕγ)=−0.094±0.066±0.001, and ACP(D0→¯K*0γ)=−0.003±0.020±0.000 are consistent with no CP violation. We also present an improved measurement of the branching fractions B(D0→ϕγ)=(2.76±0.19±0.10)×10−5 and B(D0→¯K*0γ)=(4.66±0.21±0.21)×10−4.
