New Physics in CP Asymmetries and Rare B Decays
نویسنده
چکیده
We review and update the effects of physics beyond the standard model on CP asymmetries in B decays. These asymmetries can be significantly altered if there are important new-physics contributions to B q -B 0 q mixing. This same new physics will therefore also contribute to rare, flavor-changing B decays. Through a study of such decays, we show that it is possible to partially distinguish the different models of new physics.

B Physics Overview: Rare Hadronic and Radiative Decays
I discuss three B physics results with potential for exhibiting new flavourchanging interactions: (1) the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B → J/ψKS decay; (2) branching fractions and CP asymmetries in B → ππ, πK decays; (3) inclusive and exclusive semi-hadronic b → s transitions.
متن کاملDirect CP Violation in B Decays
We discuss several aspects of direct CP asymmetries in B decays, which are very useful in spite of hadronic uncertainties in asymmetry calculations. 1) Asymmetries in decays to D(∗)K(∗), π+π−, ρ+ρ−, providing precision tests for the CKM phase γ. 2) Null tests in B+ → J/ψK+, π+π0, where a nonzero asymmetry provides evidence for New Physics. 3) Isospin and broken flavor SU(3) relations among CP a...
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...
متن کاملRare decays at LHCb
Rare decays of B and D mesons are sensitive to the presence of physics beyond the Standard Model as they are mediated by loop diagrams. New physics can be probed by measuring unexpectedly high branching ratios, CP, isospin and forward backward asymmetries and other angular observables. Recent results obtained by the LHCb experiment in this field are presented in this document.
متن کاملExploring New Physics with CP Asymmetries in B ” Decays
CP asymmetries in I?’ decays into CP eigenstates are shown to be very useful in probing effects of new physics. Although there are many possible sources for inconsistencies with the Standard Model predictions, we find that various relations among the asymmetries test different aspects of new physics. We suggest a new way to test the assumption that the direct decays are dominated by a single co...
