Current Status of the CKM Matrix and the CP Violation
نویسنده
چکیده
These lectures give an introduction and the current status of flavour physics in the quark sector, with special attention to the CKM matrix and CP violation. We describe the measurements which contribute to the determination of the CKM matrix elements and how, together with important theoretical developments, they have significantly improved our knowledge on the flavour sector of the Standard Model. These lectures are complemented by the seminar of U. Mallik (see these proceedings) which describes in more details the most recent CP-violating related measurements by the B-factories. The results presented are up-to-date till winter 2004. keywords : CKM matrix, CP violation, Beauty (B) hadrons, B decays, Unitarity Triangle

CKM Matrix : Present and Future a
We review the present status of the CKM matrix and we offer some visions of its future. After a brief presentation of the theoretical framework for weak decays we discuss the following topics: i) CKM matrix from tree level decays, ii) Standard analysis of the unitarity triangle, iii) CKM matrix from rare and CP violating Kand B-decays, iv) CKM matrix from CP violation in twobody B-decays. In pa...
متن کاملCorrelating the Higgs and Kaon Sector CP Violations
Taking the most general two-doublet models with explicit CP violation in the Higgs sector but no phase in the CKM matrix, we determine the correlation between the Higgs and Kaon sectors using the experimental values of ∆MK and ǫK . It is found that: there is a direct correlation between strength of FCNC couplings and the Higgs masses, and the lightest Higgs is nearly pure CP–even, but this smal...
متن کاملQuark Mixing and CP Violation
We review the historical developments leading to the CabibboKobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing matrix. Present status of the CKM matrix from direct measurements is summarized, giving also the present profile of the unitarity triangle. CP Violation in the K0 K0 complex and in B-meson decays are discussed in the context of
متن کاملFor Publisher’s use THE CKM MATRIX AND CP VIOLATION
The status of CP violation and the CKM matrix is reviewed. Direct CP violation in B decay has been established and the measurement of sin 2β in ψK modes reached 5% accuracy. I discuss the implications of these, and of the possible deviations of the CP asymmetries in b → s modes from that in ψK. The first meaningful measurements of α and γ are explained, together with their significance for cons...
