2 Flavor Violation beyond the SM Effects of New Physics* ) at Λ = O(Λ EW ) on B decays can be treated in a low-energy effective theory approach (similar to Fermi-theory). * ) electroweak New Physics in flavor changing amplitudes: Y b A u, c, t s c SM c b q + X ) = A + NP 0 mw Λ NP BSM ( b X s CKM factors Loop-factors In most general case NP with generic flavor structure! There are good arguments that NP should appear around the EW scale. 50 Flavor Problem No indication of large O(1) New Physics contribution to FCNC processes. Puts severe constraints on New Physics. Example: ΔF= mixing measurements (V tb *V td ) A(B d B d ) ~ 16 π m W c NP ~ 1/(16 π ) + c NP 1 ~ 1 tree + generic flavor ~ (V tb *V td ) ~ (V tb *V td ) / (16 π ) loop + generic flavor tree + MFV loop+ MFV Λ Λ > 10 4 TeV [K] Λ > 10 3 TeV [K] Λ > 5 TeV [K&B] Λ > 0.5 TeV [K&B] G. Isidori (009) Not too far from EW scale New Physics not visible if CKM like flavor structure! 51 Probing New Physic with B meson decays

3 Minimal Flavor Violation Flavor Physics New Physics at TeV-scale must have* ) non-generic flavor structure. * ) modulo some conspiracy Minimal flavor violation: Standard Model Yukawa couplings are the only non-trivial flavor-breaking terms also beyond the Standard Model. Minimal flavor violation realized by construction in MSSM SUSY models (CMSSM) often used as reference point. MFV should not be taken as granted! 5 Flavor Structure of New Physics Test MFV Hypothesis - Flavor breaking terms beside SM Yukawas? Study flavor structure of new particles if found by ATLAS/CMS. Expect sizeable deviation even in MVF models B s mixing phase φ s b s γ penguins Very rare FCNC proc.
