1 Search for B (s,d) μμ in LHCb Diego artinez Santos (CERN) (on behalf of the LHCb Collaboration) CERN-PH-EP , submitted to PLB 1
2 Outline Observables: Branching Ratios (BR) of B s,d μμ 1 Why do we want to measure that? indirect probe for New Physics(NP) How do we do it? (Analysis strategy) How to find such a rare decay and disentangle from background Normalization and Calibration to get a correct BR 3 What did we get with 010 data? Interesting results Amazing prospects
3 Indirect Approach B s,d μμ can access NP through new virtual particles entering in the loop indirect search Indirect approaches can access higher energy scales and see NP effects earlier: 3 rd quark family inferred by Kobayashi and askawa (1973) to explain CP V in K mixing (1964). Directly observed in 1977 (b) and 1995 (t) Neutral Currents discovered in 1973, Z 0 directly observed in 1983 Roundness of Earth (Eratosthenes, c.iii B.C) discovered ~300 years before direct observation ~.3 k years till the direct observation Eratosthenes 3
4 S and New Physics This decay is very suppressed in S : BR(B s µµ) = (3. ± 0.)x10-9 BR(B d µµ) = (1.0 ± 0.1)x10-10 Experimental upper limit still one order of magnitude above such 95% CL: (q = u, c, t) BR(B s µµ) < 4.3x10-8 BR(B d µµ) < 0.76x10-8 (CDF, 3.7 fb -1, prel.) BR(B s µµ) < 5.1x10-8 (D0, 6.1 fb -1, publ.) But in NP models it can take any value from << S (e.g, some NSS) up to current experimental upper limit (e.g. SUSY at high tanβ) +? Whatever the actual value is, it will have an impact on NP searches 4
5 Best fit contours in tanβ vs A plane in the NUH1 model [O. Buchmuller et al, Eur.Phys.J.C64: ,009] B s µµ x10-8 1x10-8 (5σ ~fb -1 ) 5x10-9 S-like CS H/A ττ, 5σ, ~30-60fb -1 Regions compatible with BR(B s μμ) ~ x10-8, 1x10-8,5x10-9 and S-like. Private calculation using SuperIso program, (F. ahmoudi, arxiv: ) and SoftSusy (B.C. Allanach, Comput. Phys. Commun. 143 (00) ) 5

7 Analysis strategy Selection cuts in order to reduce the amount of data to analyze. LHCb trigger selects > 90% of the signal that is interesting for the offline analysis. Classification of B s,d μμ events in bins of a D space Invariant mass of the μμ pair ultivariate discriminant variable combining geometrical and kinematical information about the event: Geometrical Likelihood (GL) Flat distributed for signal, background peaks at 0 Control channels to get signal and background expectations w/o relying on simulation Bd search window Bs search window Compare expectations with observed distribution. Results combined using CL s method 7
8 Geometrical Likelihood S-B separation relies strongly on this variable Trained using C samples of B s μμ signal and bb μμ background. Distributions taken from data to not rely on the accuracy of the simulation Distribution of real signal obtained by looking at B h + h - in real data. Similar to C expectation. Background distribution is obtained from data by interpolating from mass sidebands in GL bins 8
9 Invariant ass Signal distribution depends on the actual mass resolution of LHCb in the B mass region (resolution depends on mass, almost linearly) easured in data by interpolating from dimuon resonances (J/ψ (m<mb), Y (m>mb) ) and looking at B h + h - (B d,s K + π -, B d π + π -, B s K + K - ) μμ background yield in mass bins is interpolated from mass sidebands B h + h - (muon identification not required) σ = 6.71±0.95 ev/c 9

16 Conclusions B s,d μμ is an interesting probe of physics beyond the Standard odel First LHCb result on BR(B s,d μμ ) BR(B s μμ) < 4.3 (5.6) 90 (95% CL) BR(B d μμ) < 1. (1.5) 90 (95% CL) Those are comparable with current best ones Extrapolation to fb -1 shows that LHCb can find/exclude BR(B s,d μμ) from ~10-8 to quite close to S prediction 16
