4 CP violation: Direct CP violation Recap from Lecture 1: Number counting exercise: Requires at least two amplitudes to interfere. Amplitudes have to have different weak and strong phases. We are comparing A f with A f. Predictive power will be limited by our knowledge of weak phases and of the strong phase differences. But there are many possible measurements that we can compare! 4

5 B CP violation: Direct CP violation K ± π : Tree and gluonic penguin contributions Compute time integrated asymmetry A ± K π = ± Experimental results from Belle, BaBar, and CDF have significant weight in the world average of this CP violation parameter. Direct CP violation present in B decays. 1856±52 K π + Belle Kπ analysis 2241±57 K + π Unknown strong phase differences between amplitudes, means we can t use this to measure weak phases! 5

6 B + + CP violation: Direct CP violation K π : Color suppressed tree and gluonic penguin contributions Many theory calculations indicate that. K + π K + π Experimentally measure: Belle Kπ analysis AK π A + =.5 ±.25 A Difference between B + and B asymmetries: AK π Difference could be an indication of new physics, however: Theory calculations assume that only T+P contribute to K + π, and C+P contribute to K + π. Δ = ± (>5σ from zero) The C contribution is larger than originally expected in K + π. For example, see G. Hou arxiv: and references therein. 6

7 Direct CP violation searches CP A = = no CP violation Observed signal of direct CP violation in B meson decay This is a small sub-set of decays where we have searched for direct CP violation. 2 observed signals (> 5σ): K + π and π + π ; five possible effects (> 3σ): ρ K +, ηk *, ρ + π D (*) K (*), and D CP K. 7

8 CP violation: Searching for new physics sin2β has been measured to O(1 ) accuracy in decays. Can use this to search for signs of New Physics (NP) if: Identify a rare decay sensitive to sin2β (loop dominated process). Measure S precisely in that mode (S eff ). Control the theoretical uncertainty on the Standard Model pollution (ΔS SM ). Compute. In the presence of NP: ΔS NP B b d W uct,, g Many tests have been performed in: B d processes. B s processes. s s s d φ, η,( KK) CP K S b ccs Unknown heavy particles can introduce new amplitudes that can affect physical observables of loop dominated processes. Observables that might be affected include branching fractions, CP asymmetries, forward backward asymmetries and so on. A successful search requires that we understand Standard Model contributions well! 8

9 SM uncertainties on ΔS To find NP we need to understand the SM contributions to a process. Leading order term is expected to be the same as a SM weak phase. Higher order terms including re-scattering, suppressed amplitudes, final state radiation and so on can modify our expectations. Some channels are better understood than others. Sign of ΔS correction is mode dependent. Most precise ΔS correction is for B η K, where ΔS theory ~ ±.1. Concentrate efforts on well understood channels.??

10 B η K Loop dominated b s decay. B b d S C η K η K W uct,, g s s s d =.6 ±.7 =.4 ±.5 η K Possible to measure S and C for both B B η K S η KL (CP odd) (CP even) These asymmetries can be compared with the Charmonium reference measurement to calculate ΔS. B tagged B tagged Δ = ± ± S η K.7.7exp.1theory CP violation has been established in this decay channel by the B factories. Need at least 5 ab -1 of data to do a precision search for NP at the level of current theoretical uncertainties. Belle η K analysis 1

11 B J/ψπ Tree and penguin contributions: can be sensitive to NP. Alternatively, can be used to constrain SM uncertainties in the Charmonium β measurement. B tagged B tagged CP even final state: S C J / ψπ J / ψπ Tree S = S ccs J / ψπ CP violation observed in this decay. =.93±.15 =.1 ±.13 Δ S =.23±.15 J / ψπ exp BaBar J/ψπ analysis Require a dataset of ~22ab -1 to make a 1% ΔS measurement in this channel. 11

12 Overview of ΔS measurements Comparing sin2β in different physical processes, we see good agreement with the b ccs reference point. (reference point) Most of the b s penguin channels have sin2β eff < sin2β. Could this be an indication of NP? Insufficient statistics to tell. Need to perform a mode-by-mode precision measurement in order to properly decouple Standard Model uncertainties from possible signals of NP. We need at least 5ab -1 to start performing measurements that will have comparable experimental and theoretical uncertainties in b s penguin processes. Need ~22ab -1 to do the same for b d. Can start to do the same with α and γ once we have a precision measurement from one mode. b s-penguin processes b d 12

13 Summary of CP violation signals found We have discovered CP violation in the following channels: Indirect CP violation measurement: related to a weak phase in the Standard Model. These modes measure either β or α. Direct CP violation measurement: related to weak phase differences and strong phase differences in the Standard Model. Can be used to constrain weak phases using model dependent analysis of charmless rare B meson decays. All of our measurements have been consistent with the SM (so far). 13

30 Tests of CPT 3

31 CPT Discrete symmetry conserved in Lorentz invariant local QFT. i.e. the SM and popular extensions. Expect CPT to be conserved based on prejudice that we have not seen it violated. But we have seen that the same prejudice had to be given up for P, C, and CP symmetries in Weak decay. Possible to construct a theory that violates CPT. Don t expect to see CPT violation, but we must look for it! Experimentally test CPT at the B factories via: Measurements of the τ + / τ lifetime. Measuring z in B decays (recall mass eigen-states): If CPT is conserved particles and antiparticles have: The same mass and lifetime. Symmetric electric charge. Opposite magentic dipole moments (or gyro-magnetic ratios for point like leptons) using samples of Hadronic B decays Di-lepton events. 31

34 CPT: Using di-lepton events Reconstruct BB pairs where both B mesons decay via b Xlν Sample includes direct b l events: lepton charge tags the B flavor. ν Lepton X B B X ν Lepton Δt = t 1 t 2 = proper time difference between the decays of the two B mesons. As B mesons mix we can have ++,, and + charge combinations for the two leptons: measure N ++, N, and N +. We can measure two asymmetries: A CPT CP SM 3 A T / CP ~1 / sensitive to ΔΓ Re( z) 34

35 CPT: Using di-lepton events Can also study variations as a function of sidereal time. 1 d sidereal z depends on the 4-momentum of the B candidate: d solar Results are compatible with CPT conservation. Results shown are from BaBar s di-lepton CPT papers Compatible with z= at 2.8σ 35

36 B VV decays (and related channels) 36

37 Angular analysis With sufficient statistics one can perform a full angular analysis: J P : B VV We define the fraction of longitudinally polarised events as: 3 d Γ dcosθ dcosθ dφ 1 2 HY ( θ, Φ) Y ( θ, Φ) m= 1,,1 m 1, m 1 1, m 2 where the H m are helicity amplitudes sin θ1sin θ2( H+ 1 + H 1 ) + cos θ1cos θ2 H * * + 2 sin θ1sin θ2[cos 2 ΦR( H+ 1H 1) sin 2 ΦI( H+ 1H 1)] sin2θ sin2 [cos ΦR ( + ) sin ΦI( * * * 1 θ2 H+ 1H H 1H H+ 1H H H * )]

38 Angular analysis Consider the tree contribution for B ρ + ρ Spin Initial state s b s d In the transversity basis we have three CP eigen-states: A = H 1 A = H + H 2 1 A = H H 2 ( ) ( ) Spectator quark has indefinite spin CP even CP odd Spin flip s are helicity suppressed: : m V m V A A : A O(1) : O : O mb mb 2 s d s u s u s d h= h= state preferred over h=+1 (overall J = ) With sufficient statistics we can measure S and C for each of these three components. If f L ~1 we just measure S and C for the longitudinal polarisation. f L m 2 V 1 2 mb = Neglecting motion within the mesons only H is allowed. Relative quark motion in the mesons gives rise to the H +1 and H -1 contributions. H +1/-1 require 1 and 2 spin flips, respectively. Ali, Kagan, Kramer, Dunietz et al., Suzuki 38

40 B φk* BaBar φk* analysis Able to simultaneously measure f L, f (and f ). K * (892) K * (143) 2 φ VV φk* has f L ~.5 and f ~.2. Doesn t fit naïve picture very well. K * (892) φ VT φk* has f L ~.9 and f ~.. Fits naïve picture. f << f in the SM. This ratio could be inverted in the presence of right handed currents. Important to study other similar decays! cos θ 1 cos θ 2 cosθ 1 S/T Kπ cosθ 2 S/T Kπ 4

41 B ωk * Belle ωk* analysis When we don t have a large signal, it is not possible to do a full angular analysis. Fit for the fraction of longitudinally polarised events (as with the ρρ α analysis from Lecture 1). Signal yield is extracted from a fit to mes, ΔE, m Kπ, and m 3π in bins of helicity angle. Perform a χ 2 fit only varying f L to extract polarisation information. Signal significance: 3. σ ( ).2 B = 1.8 ±

43 B φρ, φφ Rare decays: φφ OZI suppressed. φρ ±, Electroweak penguin processes. Could be sensitive to new physics. Different enhancements for different scenarios: RPV SUSY/2HDM/MSUGRA BR ~ 1-9. φρ + could be enhanced by φ-ω mixing up to O(1-7 ); what about φρ? What do we use for f L when fitting the data if there is insufficient signal? i) Use prejudice from a theory calculation [OK if they agree]. ii) Scan for signal for different f L and take the largest upper limit/most significant result. Signal Yield Note: ε = ε(f L ); Fit for f L eff with a known R = ε L /ε T So: 1 For each value of f L compute the value of Nsig and its error, as well as the significance of the result, branching fraction and 9% CL upper limit. f L 43

44 Rare decays: B φρ, φφ φφ OZI suppressed. φρ ±, Electroweak penguin processes. φφ BaBar φφ, φρ analysis Could be sensitive to new physics. Different enhancements for different scenarios: RPV SUSY/2HDM/MSUGRA φρ + BR ~ 1-9. φρ + could be enhanced by φ-ω mixing up to O(1-7 ); what about φρ? φρ No signal observed. 44

45 B VV decays Have searched for a number of rare B VV decays. Many rare penguin processes are suppressed to B ~ O(1-9 ). These could be sensitive probes of NP! Also searched for B AV: a 1 ρ [< ] b 1 +/ ρ /+ [< ] Babar b 1 ρ analysis Recent theory prediction gave B(b 1 +/ ρ /+ ) ~ 15 to We have a lot to learn from VV & AV decays! 45

46 Summary The B-factories have tested the CKM mechanism to an unprecedented level: σ ρ ~ 16%, σ η ~ 4.7% ( ) ( ) CKM works at this level. Still not enough CP violation to explain the universal matter-antimatter asymmetry! Is there NP in weak interactions with (s)quarks to make up the shortfall? CPT has been experimentally tested by the B-factories. Need more precise searches for new physics and possible deviations from CKM. Rare B decays to final states with V and A are not fully understood (from experimental or theoretical perspectives). Next generations of B factories will start to build on the knowledge of BaBar and Belle soon. 46

47 Outlook BaBar has finished taking data: 467 million B pairs recorded at the Y(4S) Recorded 3fb -1 at the Y(3S) and 14.5fb -1 at the Y(2S) Performed an energy scan above the Y(4S) Belle Will record 1ab -1 at the Y(4S) Has data at the Y(1S), Y(5S) and above the Y(5S) Will be upgraded to ~1 35 (SuperKEKB) LHC-b Should start taking data in September 28. We can look forward to results soon after! SuperB Could start taking data as early as 215. Would aim to record 75 ab -1 in the first 6 years of data taking. 47
