CP Violating B Decays in the Standard Model and Supersymmetry
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the uncertainties of the standard model (SM) predictions for CP violating B decays and investigate where and how supersymmetric (SUSY) contributions may be disentangled. The first task is accomplished by letting the relevant matrix elements of the effective Hamiltonian vary within certain ranges. The SUSY analysis makes use of a formalism which allows one to obtain model-independent results. We show that in some cases it is possible (a) to measure the CP B–BB mixing phase and (b) to discriminate the SM and SUSY contributions to the CP decay phases. The gold-plated decays in this respect are the B ! fKS and B ! KSp channels. [S0031-9007(97)03711-3]

Signatures of Supersymmetry in B Decays - A Theoretical Perspective
We discuss precision tests of the standard model in radiative and semileptonic rare B-decays and CP-violating asymmetries, and possible signatures of supersymmetry in these processes. Motivated by current data, and with an eye on the forthcoming measurements, we restrict ourselves to the processes in which the bench marks set by the standard model have either been met by ongoing experiments or ...

متن کاملRecent Developments in Theory of CP Violation
Four topics in theory of CP violation are reviewed. (a) CP violation in B decays: We describe a new clean way of constraining the angle γ of the unitarity triangle and how new CP violation in decay amplitudes can signal new physics. (b) CP violation inK decays: We explain the special features of the decay KL → π νν̄ both as a measurement of Standard Model CP violating parameters and as a probe o...
متن کاملPrecision Flavour Physics and Supersymmetry ?
We review the salient features of a comparative study of the profile of the CKM unitarity triangle, and the resulting CP-violating phases α, β and γ in B decays, in the standard model and in several variants of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM), reported recently by us. These theories are characterized by a single phase in the quark flavour mixing matrix and give rise to well-def...
متن کاملNew Physics Effects on Cp Violation in B Decays
In chapter 2 we introduce our formalism, and discuss the Standard Model picture of CP violation in B decays, with special emphasis on the cleanliness of the predictions. Chapter 3 gives a general discussion of new physics effects: we point out the ingredients in the analysis that are sensitive to new physics and deduce the type of new physics that is most likely to modify the Standard Model pre...
