43 Where do we go from here? B factories will provide vast data samples More information at new level of precision on CKM matrix elements, CP violation etc to be expected soon Precision of CKM ME s limited by theoretical understanding of strong interaction Theoretical tools are being developed, but they need to be calibrated Hanna Mahlke-Krueger 43

44 Strong interaction and non-perturbative QCD QED QCD: strong coupling and nonlinearity due to gluon self-coupling a new feature: confinement Perturbative QCD saved the day for high energies and has been extremely successful Confinement is a low energy phenomenon but an essential component of our physics picture need to master this area too!! Theoretical tools available but must be verified, e.g. lattice QCD Hanna Mahlke-Krueger 44

45 Lattice version of QCD The only complete definition of QCD: comprises pert. and non-perturbative aspects Also B factories welcome LQCD input, e.g. f B Recent advances to allow unquenched calculations improved the precision of predictions from 15% down to the percent level, but Need data to calibrate! yrecent results (fall 02) ytune m u =m d,m s,m c,m b and α S using m π,m K, m ϒ,m ψ, E ϒ (1P-1S), n f =3, a=1/8fm ymuch more precise results (errors reduced 3-4x) yremarkable agreement with experimental data G.P.

49 A Cleo-c (MC) event Clean events, low multiplicity Spherical event topology Good signal/bkd ratio... Hanna Mahlke-Krueger 49

50 Cleo-c - a unique opportunity Calibration of LQCD tools such that they can be trusted when applied to b physics ~1% measurements of V cs and V cd Direct Beyond the Standard Model searches unique to Cleo-c Sensitive searches of glueballs and exotic states Vastly more low energy data A modern detector New theory tools Unprecedented precision Hanna Mahlke-Krueger 50

51 Friday 2/7/ h: --> Dear CLEO Colleagues, We just received the following short announcement from Maury Tigner: To CLEO, CESR and CHESS Colleagues We learned this morning that the National Science Board, the governing board of the NSF, has approved the 5 year proposals of both LEPP and CHESS. There will be a celebration in the Wilson Commons on Feb. 28 Needless to say, we are delighted that we can now move forward confidently with CLEO-c knowing that the project is approved! David and Ian Hanna Mahlke-Krueger 51

52 Summary CLEO continues to contribute to a precise understanding of the SM: V cb V ub Confinement remains one of the challenges New tools are becoming available, but we need testing grounds: Recent advances in Lattice QCD Cleo-c is on its way More than ever, it is essential to combine knowledge from all areas to obtain the best possible results.
