Consider two possible decay channels of a massive particle as X→A+B and X→C+D with decay rates r and 1−r respectively. Let the decay rates of its antiparticle into channels ˉX→ˉA+ˉB and ˉX→ˉC+ˉD are respectively ˉr and 1−ˉr.
For a theory with C-violation but CP-conservation, although the decay angular distribution for X and ˉX would be different the decay rates integrated over all angles will be equal i.e., ΓX=ΓˉX. But for a theory with both C and CP-violation would ensure different absolute rates in the two channels i.e., ΓX≠ΓˉX.
How can I understand/prove this statement? For the reference, see this.
