Physics 214 UCSD Physics 225a UCSB Experimental Particle Physics Lecture 17 A few words about the final Attempt at a summary of the quarter.

What do we need to detect? Momenta of all stable particles: Charged: Pion, kaon, proton, electron, muon Neutral: photon, K0s , neutron, K0L , neutrino Particle identification for all of the above. “Unstable” particles: Pizero b-quark, c-quark, tau Gluon and light quarks W,Z,Higgs … anything new we might discover …

All modern collider detectors look alike beampipe tracker ECAL Increasing radius solenoid HCAL Muon chamber

What you need to know: Exprimentalists: Theorists: Everything we talked about ! Theorists: The basic model how all collider detectors are built.

Symmetries Theorists: Experimentalists: Need to know everything, and more. Experimentalists: Basic ideas How to apply them to: Know what transitions are allowed Calculate ratios of amplitudes Calculate angular distributions

Summary on Lie groups Let L be the N dimensional Lie group of Rank k for the Hamiltonian H. Then we have the following set of operators that mutually commute: H, C1,…,Ck,L1,…,Lk Any state is thus characterized by 2k quantum numbers. The energy E is given as some function of the C1,…,Ck.

Example: Group of Rotations in 3-space Generators: Jx, Jy,Jz Lie algebra: [Jk, Jl] = i klm Jm Rank = 1 Casimir Operator: J2 Multiplets are classified by their total angular momentum J States are classified by J and Jz, the latter being one of the three generators.

Final Exam Question 3 What’s the angular distribution for the decay products in the decay JPC = 1-- to two pseudoscalars if the decaying particle has Jz = +-1 ? Anti-B  e- e+ Jz=0 in final state, therefore L must be encoded in angular distribution of B anti-B axis !!! B

Final Exam Question 8 Most of you got some fraction of this right. Almost everybody missed the fact that there are two reduced matrix elements in play, and that you need to do an isospin decomposition after adding the isospin of the B meson and the isospin of the transition operator Heffective !!!

Neutrino Physics The basic Phenomenology There are 3 families of neutrinos They are produced and observed in their weak eigenstates but propagate in their mass eigenstates => mixing What we know from experiment The research frontier Measuring sin(theta13) Understand hierarchy Majorana vs Dirac

Discussion of QFT and scattering of point particles From Feynman Diagrams to Matrix elements. You need to come up with the diagram for a process (e.g. Q6 of final) You need to write down the ME Relationship between ME, cross section, and physical observable. Understand basic characteristics to know when you’ve screwed up royally. Theorists need to actually master the algebra.

“Rules” for dealing with antiparticles Antiparticles get arrow that is backwards in time. “Incoming” and “outgoing” is defined by how the arrows point to the vertex. Antiparticles get negative energy assigned.

Two-by-two process Understand how to relate number of scatters in AB -> CD scattering to “beam & target independent” cross section in terms of Wfi . Relate Wfi to matrix element. => Understand relationship between cross section and Matrix Element”, and be able to relate it to physical observable.

Cross Section for AB -> CD target Basic ideas: scatter beam # of scatters = (flux of beam) x (# of particles in target) x  Cross section =  = Wfi (initial flux) (number of final states) Wfi = rate per unit time and volume “Cross section” is independent of characteristics of beam and target !!!

Experimental perspective We measure event yield within some ragged kinematic corner of phase space. We divide by our detector acceptance => We get produced yield for well defined corner of phase space. We measure integrated luminosity of the colliding beams for our data taking period. =>  = produced yield / integrated luminosity

Theoretical perspective Wfi Cross section =  = (number of final states) (initial flux) Wfi  = vA (2EA/V) (2EB/V) M is obtained from Feynman rules, and the rest is algebra.

It is customery to re-express F = flux factor: dQ = Lorentz invariant phase space:

e+e- -> f+ f- Question 1 on final is probably the most important example process to understand. I promise to revisit this next quarter, and discuss it in some detail then.

pf ~ pi => t = -2 k2 (1 - cos) u = -2 k2 (1 + cos) s ~ 4k2  = e2 /4 => Relativistic limit

dJ1-1 eL- eR+ -> muL- muR+ Jz +1 -> +1 eL- eR+ -> muR- muL+ Jz +1 -> -1 eR- eL+ -> muL- muR+ Jz -1 -> +1 eR- eL+ -> muR- muL+ Jz -1 -> -1 Next look at the rotation matrices: Cross products cancel in Spin average: dJ1-1 initial final Jz

QED piece goes like 1/E2 => -2logE on log scale. Weak piece must have a Z-pole.

Forward-backward asymmetry Must start at 0 because of 1+cos2 dependence. For dependence look at Eq. 13.66 and 13.61 in H&M. It goes negative like -s as s increases from 0. It reaches a minimum t a place that’s not immediatey obvious. It goes asymptotically towards a positive value.

Deep Inelastic Scattering Bjorken Scaling is a sign of point particles inside the proton. The parton picture, and pdf’s that describe the structure of the proton At what x do valence quarks dominate At what x do sea quarks dominate At what x do gluons dominate How do I use this information to gain some intuition about proton proton and proton antiproton collisions as a function of sqrt(s).

Proton Note: 1e-2 * 7TeV =70GeV Sea dominates valence dominates at low x at high x. A 14TeV collider can be pp instead of ppbar because all Standard model processes involve low x at that s !!!

=> The LHC is a gluon collider !!! Gluons dominate at low x . To set the scale, x = 0.14 at LHC is 0.14 * 7TeV = 1TeV => The LHC is a gluon collider !!!

In case you want to prepare for next quarter during the break. Make yourself comfortable with question 1 on final. Play around a bit with comphep, madgraph, etc.

Have a great holiday! And see you all back in the new year in the continuation of this lecture.
