Toru Iijima @ Flavour in the LHC era Search for Btn B tn is important for both SM and BSM. Purely leptonic Theoretically very clean More than two n’s Experimentally very challenging. Its detection is a milestone of B physics. B factories LEP First Evidence ! April 2006 2006/05/15 Toru Iijima @ Flavour in the LHC era
Btn Analysis Concepts B decays with missing neutrinos lack the kinematic constraints which are used to separate signal events from backgrounds (Mbc and DE). Reconstruct the decay of the non-signal B (tagging), then look for the signal decay in whatever is left over More than 2 neutrinos appear in B tn decay Tagging side : Fully reconstruct hadronic modes Y(4S) B- B+ n p+ Signal side : Reconstruct particles from t decay 2006/05/15 Toru Iijima @ Flavour in the LHC era
Features with Fully Reconstructed B Tag Pros: Offline B meson Beam B momentum is known. Resolution of Mmiss2 can be significantly improved. B-flavor/charge is known. We can treat charged & neutral B separately Large background reduction Cons: Low statistics Tagging efficiency : 0.2 - 0.3% Mmiss2 for B-D0 m- n (MC) w/o B momentum with B momentum Large lum. required ! 2006/05/15 Toru Iijima @ Flavour in the LHC era

Verification of the Signal (1) For events in the EECL signal region, distribution of event selection variables other than EECL are verified. They are consistent with MC expectation for Btn signal + background. Btn signal Background Mbc Pmiss 2006/05/15 Toru Iijima @ Flavour in the LHC era
Verification of the Signal(2) About 30% of background have neutral cluster in the KLM detector (KL candidates). The excess remains after requiring KL veto. KL in coincidence. KL in veto EECL EECL We do not use this cut in the result, to avoid introducing large systematic error due to KL detection efficiency uncertainty. 2006/05/15 Toru Iijima @ Flavour in the LHC era
