14 B physics search for CP G B mesons are heavy (m B >>Λ QCD ) to be substituted by b quark field G Like neutral K mesons, B s have mass eigen-states which are not flavor eigen-states B B mixing G In the Standard Model, the flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNC) are forbidden, and no direct couplings b s, b d are expected: b d t t d b penguins w - g,γ,ζ b t s,d 14 G The CPT theorem forbids partial rate asymmetries which are CP violating to occur on the tree level, BUT in the SM the interference of tree, box, and penguin diagrams can cause the time dependant/integrated rates differences due to a single weak phase in CKM: δ CKM = γ =arg(vub * )

38 B B mixing and sin2β G B B oscillations have been studied for almost 15 years with time integrated approach at Y(4S)(Argus, Cleo) and time dependant technique at Z pole( LEP) G in the SM it s described by the second order box diagram and can be used to extract V td, but large theoretical uncertainty of f B remains the biggest systematic error G the observable used to measure B B oscillations is the numbers of B B (unmixed) and B B,B B (mixed) pairs plotted as a function of their vertexes separation z = t cβγ H ± 1 Γ t ( t; Γ, md, D) = Γe d a 4 [ 1± D cos m t] R( t; ) 38 where + is for unmixed, - is for mixed events D=(1-2w), w mistag probability, m d the mixing parameter, R( t;a) vertex resolution function and a vector of parameters of the resolution function
39 B B mixing and sin2β G The log-likelihood function is then constructed from the sum of H ± over all mixed and unmixed events, and over different tag types, i, each with its own characteristics dilution factor D i tagging ln L = ln H + ( t; Γ, md, Di, ai ) + ln H ( t; Γ, md, Di, a i unmixed mixed i ) 39 G due to the presence of background 3 more components are added: B B B ±,1 ±,2 ±,3 = ( 1± D ) δ ( t) R -zero lifetime Γ2 = 2 Γ3 = 2 1 (1 ± (1 ± D D 2 3 ) e ( Γ 2 t ) cos( m 3 R t)) e ( Γ 3 t ) R - non-zero lifetime, no mixing -non-zero lifetime, with mixing
40 B B mixing and sin2β G parameters of the fits: oscillation frequency m d, tagging separation Q = ε D and 3 parameters of the z resolution function are extracted from the fit G these parameters and their errors are used for sin2β fit and all sorts of effects associated with this approximation were studied At BaBar there were 3 different techniques used to measure B B oscillations: with hadronic decays B->D * h with semileptonic decays B->D * l ν used to understand CP time dependant fits and assess systematics 4 with inclusive dilepton events superior statistics!

49 Conclusion - BaBar and PEP-II completed its first Physics Run recording 21.6 fb -1 of on-peak data and achieving 3.1x1 33 peak luminosity - Overall performance of PEP-II/BaBar was better than the design, understanding of the detector and data quality are constantly improving getting very close to the design levels for all the sub-detectors - Results presented here are based on the 8fb -1 data set, but analysis of the full 1999/2 dataset is well under way and new BaBar results will be coming out very soon! - With full 99/ data set we expect to get down to.2 statistical error in the measurements of Sin2β - New run will start within weeks and we hope to accumulate another 3-35 fb -1 of data by Summer 21 49
