The semileptonic decay asymmetry is studied within the open quantum systems approach to the physics of the neutral meson
–
system: this extended treatment takes into account possible non-standard, dissipative effects induced by the presence of an external environment. A bound on these effects is provided through the analysis of available experimental data from the Belle Collaboration.
