CP violation is now described by two complex parameters, and , with related to direct CP violation. The standard model estimates Re(/) to be 4-30x10-4!
Experimentally what is measured is the ratio of branching ratios:
After many years of trying (starting in 1970’s) and some controversial experiments,a non-zero value of Re(/) has been recently been measured (2 different experiments):
Re(/)=17.21.8x10-4
At this point, the measurement is more precise than the theoretical calculation! Calculating Re(/) is presently one of the most challenging HEP theory projects.
P780.02 Spring 2003 L14 Richard KassB mesons and CP violationSearching for CP violation in the kaon system consisted of:1) Get a beam of “pure” K2’s (component with long lifetime) have a long decay channel so the K1 component decays away.2) Look for K2 decays that have the wrong CP:
expect CP= -1: K23 look for CP= +1: K22Can we use the same technique to study CP violation with B mesons?
NO!The lifetimes of the neutral B weak eigenstates are equal so there is no wayto separate the two components by allowing one of them to decay away.

The kaon difference isdue to the limited phase space(mK-m3) available for K3.There is no such limitation forB-meson decay.
To study CP violation with B mesons must use another “trick”:
Study the time evolution of B0B0 pairs and look for a measurablequantity that depends on CP violation.Look for rate differences to the same CP final state (f):

The “Wolfenstein” representaton:
The Wolfenstein representation is good for relating CP violation to specific decay rates. A non-zero gives CP violation since it provides a phase in the decay amplitude.
Why do we need a phase to observe CP violation?

B mixing is exactly the same process that we discussed in “strangeness oscillations”. Even simpler since the lifetimes are the same for both states (BL, BS).

Convenient to normalize all sides to the base of the triangle (VcdV*cb = A3).
In the (, ) plane the triangle now becomes:

One way to test the Standard Model is to measure the 3 sides & 3 angles and seeif the triangles closes!

Steps to observing CP violation with B mesonsProduce B-mesons pairs using the reaction e+e- (4S) B0B0
must build an asymmetric colliderReconstruct the decay of one of the B-mesons’s into a CP eigenstate
example CP: B0 KS and B0 KS Reconstruct the decay of the other B-meson to determine its flavor (“tag”)
use high momentum leptons: B0 e+ or + )X and B0 e- or - )Xflavor of CP eigenstate also determined at time of the “tag” decay.
Measure the distance (L) between the two B meson decays and convert to proper timemust reconstruct the position of both B decay vertices
t=L/(c)Fit the decay time difference (t) to the functional form:
dN/dte-|t| [1cp(sin2sin(mt)]
Determine sin2

Why do we need an asymmetric collider? The source of B mesons is the (4S), which has JPC =1--.The (4S) decays to two bosons with JP =0-.Quantum Mechanics (application of the Einstein-Rosen-Podosky Effect) tells usthat for a C=- initial state ((4S)) the rate asymmetry:

Need to measure the time dependence of decays to “see” CP violation using theB’s produced at the (4S).
P780.02 Spring 2003 L14 Richard Kass
Why Do We Need an Asymmetric Collider?In order to measure time we must measure distance: t=L/v.How far do B mesons travel after being produced by the Y(4S) (at rest) at a symmetric e+e- collider? At a symmetric collider we have for the B mesons from Y(4S) decay:plab =0.3 GeV, mB=5.28 GeVAverage flight distance <L>= ()cB= (p/m)(468m)=(0.3/5.28)(468m)=(27m)This is too small to measure!!If the beams have unequal energies then the entire system is Lorentz Boosted:= plab /Ecm=(phigh-plow)/Ecm
SLAC: 9 GeV+3.1 GeV = 0.55 <L>= 257mKEK: 8 GeV+3.5 GeV = 0.42 <L>= 197mWe can measure these decay distances !Because of the boost and the small plab the time measurement is a z measurment.

P780.02 Spring 2003 L14 Richard KassCP Violation with LeptonsIf quarks can violate CP why not CP violation with leptons?
The CP violation that we see in “outer space” is much larger than the CPVwe see with quarks.
Maybe it’s the leptons that generated the cosmic baryon/anti-baryon asymmetry!
To date, no experimental evidence for CPV in lepton sector.But if neutrinos violate CP who would know?Very hard to do an experiment with neutrinos that is sensitive to CPV
We know that neutrinos “mix”: vevvev
Results from SuperK and SNO imply that neutrinos:have mass (small)neutrino lepton number not conserved (must modify standard model)
Is there a “CKM”-like matrix (3x3 unitary) for neutrinos ?
