1 Ida Ida Peruzzi Peruzzi Università Università di di Perugia Perugia & L.N.F. L.N.F. Experimental review and perspectives of violation in the B system Introduction The phenomenology of of violation in in B meson decays Present experimental status Future Prospects: Evolution of of present experiments Approved or or planned new new projects

2 The b quark: historical highlights Extension of the Cabibbo theory to 3 quark doublets. (Kobayashi, Maskawa, 1973) Discovery of the τ lepton (Perl, 1976) Discovery of the b quark (Lederman, 1977) Discovery of the B mesons (CLEO, 1979) b lifetime measurement (MAC, MARKII, 1983) Discovery of B mixing (UA1, ARGUS, CLEO,...,1987) Asymmetric B-factories proposal (Oddone, 1987) sin (2β) measurement (BABAR, BELLE, 21)

3 violation in the Standard Model Mixing between the three quark generations expressed by the unitary Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix A ( i ) λ λ λ ρ η Vud Vus Vub V = Vcd Vcs Vcb = λ 1 λ Aλ + O( λ 2 V V V 3 2 td ts tb Aλ (1 ρ iη) Aλ 1 Unitarity relations can be represented by triangles All triangles have same area Only the B triangle has all sizes of the same order Violation non zero area η = No violation in SM 4 )

4 B Physics Measurements of all sides and angles of the unitarity triangle Stringent tests of the SM through a large number of measurements of related variables Possible discrepancies would also point to the SM sector where new Physics should be introduced Main goals for the B-factories: To study the asymmetries from violation To study rare B decays Discover effects due to new Physics! Discover effects due to new Physics!

5 Indirect Constraints on the Angles Höcker et al, hep-ex/1462 (+ many other recent global CKM matrix analyses) -averaged measurements: J > at ~ 1.7 σ Evidence for violation from -averaged observations consistent with violation in kaon system (expressed by ε K ) Constraints on -violating observables (95% c.l.) : sin 2β sin 2α γ [ ] [ 1.5 ] [ ]

6 b Quark Decays Tree Decays: Penguin Decays : B Oscillations :

7 B hadron decays: tree diagrams Cabibbo favored : D - π +, D * - π + +, D π, J/Ψ Κ. D - D s + ( Aλ2 ) Cabibbo suppressed : D s + π -, D - K +, D* - K +, D - D +, π - π +, J/Ψ π, D Κ,D Κ, π π ( Aλ 3,Aλ 3 (ρ iη) ) Cabibbo doubly suppressed: K + π - -, Κ π ( Aλ 4 (ρ iη) ) Several final states have contribution from penguin diagrams, the effect is is larger if if the tree diagram is is suppressed

8 B hadron decays: penguin diagrams Some final states can only be reached via penguin diagrams: Φ π, η π, Φ Κ, η Κ, Κ Κ, π γ, Κ γ, Κ l + l final states with : K*, ρ, ω, η etc BR 1-6 measurement possible at present B-factories Charged B meson decays have similar diagrams

14 The Asymmetric B-factory The Y(4S) is the cleanest B d source Each event is made of 2 monochromatic B d s Simple and efficient final state reconstruction and flavor id The BB system evolves coherently until first B decays t (oscillation ) = time difference between the two decays But: a integrated over time is exactly zero! It s necessary to measure the decay distance But: B mesons do not live long enough to measure t Y(4S) boost (asymmetric beams) But: the cross section is only ~ 1nb ( > 1 7 M B s needed) Luminosity must be > 1 33 cm -2 sec -1

26 Prospects for sin (2β) (Winter 22 Conf.)

27 Measurement of sin 2α In principle α could be measured from b d u u (B π + π -, B ρ + π - ) But: tree diagrams are Cabibbo suppressed and penguin contribution could be sizeable. More phases are introduced by penguin diagrams and by penguin-tree interference DIRECT violation ( A/A 1 is also possible, test with B ± s) cos( m t) term. Effect can be expressed as: sen 2 α eff = sen (2α + 2 δ Ping ) The 2δ Ping angle can be measured from triangular relations between amplitudes into isospin states π + π, π π Experimental problem : B π π

32 Measurement of sin 2γ In B s decays (example: ) Several methods suggested to derive γ from B d decays, examples: Triangular relations from decay amplitudes B D K (originally proposed by Gronau e Wiler) B s D s K Ratio of BR (B K + π - ) to BR (B + K π + ) and asymmetry (Fleisher, Mannel et al) The asymmetry in B D* - π + also measures sin (2β+γ)... Measurement still out of reach...

33 Future plans Without long shut down and major machine work, PEP-II and KEK-B luminosity will continue to increase adiabatically up to few 1 34 cm -2 s -1 Extrapolating present performance it appears possble that both detectors will collect data for 5 fb -1 by 25 and 1ab -1 by 21 Several future options under discussion KEK-B plans to shut down in 26 to upgrade to 1 35 cm -2 s -1 Working groups have been set up to study the feasibility and the physics reach of a new machine at L=1 36 cm -2 s -1 (SUPERBABAR )

35 A LOOK INTO THE FUTURE

36 Hadronic B-factory concept VERY large B production cross section All B mesons are produced (also B s and B c ) B s allow clean sin 2γ measurement Rare decays are more accessible (3-4 orders of magnitude) Decay vertices are more distant (2-3 times) But S/B ratio is much worse (factor ~1) But trigger is much more complex But final states are very crowded excellent detectors are needed! Today: CDF and D at FNAL Tomorrow: BTEV (FNAL) & LHCB (CERN)

45 Rare Decays

46 CONCLUSIONS More than 2 years after initial discovery, b physics is still exciting and studied by many dedicated experiments! violation in B decays has been measured by BABAR and BELLE, but this is only the beginning... In 25 BABAR & BELLE will have a data base of 1 9 B pairs, improved sin 2β measurement, and rare decays Br s... but still a lot will be left to be done! LHC-B and B-TEV will perform more stringent tests of the SM Up to now the SM does not show failures... But discrepancies could be found with increased precision of the measurements... In the meanwhile work is going on to design and built new machines and new detectors... More work is is needed from the the theorists otherwise the the experimental errors will will become limited by by model uncertainties

47 FINAL COMMENT BABAR CDF B-TEV LHC-B GIGA-Z SUPERBABAR NO MATTER WHO IS GOING TO DO BEST FRASCATI WILL BE THERE!
