2 Introduction The BABAR experiment was designed to measure sin 2 2 with high precision in the mode B J/ K 0 S For sin 2 2 no high precision results were expected & measurement of was considered to accomplished by LHCb & BTEV Collaboration formed Dec 1993 & TDR was completed March 1995 First hadronic event in BABAR was seen May 26, 1999 Design luminosity of L= cm -2 s -1 was reached Sep 14, 1999 L= cm -2 s -1 was achieved October 9, 2005 Presently, an integrated luminosity of ~300 fb -1 is recorded BABAR is expected to run till end of 2008 accumulating integrated luminosity of 1000 fb -1 BABAR has published 140 papers (88( in PRL, 51 in PRD, 1 NIM) Another 25 papers have been submitted to PRL & PRD 2

3 PEP II Performance design Peak luminosity: L= cm -2 s -1 best day: L=0.73fb -1 /d Total integrated luminosity in BABAR: L tot = 299 fb -1 3

6 Measurement of sin 2 2 Measure B modes to extract sin 2 2 ( BB pairs) Observe 2 lucky incidents: Polarization ~100% logitudinal pure CP-even state Small B(B 0 0 )< yields eff CP asymmetry in B + - < 90% CL S long ( ) = 0.33 ± C long ( + ) = 0.03 ± 0.18 ± 0.09 B 0 -tags B 0 -tags BABARAR Other B branching fractions B(B + B(B ) = ( ± 5.8) ) = (33 ± 4 ± 5) 10 6 From isospin analysis get = [100 ± 7 exp ± 11 peng ] o 6

7 Summary on From combined,, results constrain to: = [ ] o Mirror solutions are disfavored CKM indirect constraint yields: = [ ] o Very good agreement 7

9 Status of Unitarity Triangle Allowed region is determined from UT sides & sin 2 2 Both angles,, & UT sides are in good agreement Allowed UT region agrees with SM prediction Look for New Physics as correction to SM Bergen is involved in CKM fits 9

10 FB Study of Radiative Penguin Decay B XB s + - This rare decay is rather sensitive to New Physics contributions in the loop SM may modify SM Wilson coefficients C 7, C 9, C 10 BABAR measured B & db/dm ll B(B X s + ) = (5.6 ± 1.5 stat ± 0.6 sys ± 1.1 mod ) 10 6 NP This is consistent with SM prediction (large errors) Next step is to improve B & to measure lepton forward- backward asymmetry A l FB with 500 fb -1 Bergen is involved here 81.9 fb -1 A l FB 10

18 Conclusion & Outlook BABAR has been very successful exceeding design plans by far sin 2 is measured with 6% precision in charmonium modes sin 2 is measured in penguin modes with 2.4 deviation Angle is measured with 10% precision is measured with a precision of +23 o -18 o Radiative penguin decays are observed New states are discovered The small Bergen group has and still is contributing to physics decays with charmonium, radiative penguin decays, CP violation In fact, a lot of BABAR work has propagated into ATLAS (e.g. MC generators, tools, physics expertise, ) We would like to continue BABAR to finish our present analyses, so students can earn their degrees & we get publications & we can develop further sophisticated tools & test with data before trying them in ATLAS analyses (Preparation for LHC) 18
