High Energy Physics at the University of Oregon

Standard Model  What is the universe made of?  How does it interact? Standard Model very successful, but incomplete…

Outstanding Questions What causes mass? What breaks EW symmetry? Are there additional symmetries to nature? Are there extra dimensions? Why matter (not antimatter)? What is dark matter? And many more…

Oregon Experiments (Finishing)

Oregon Experiments (Running) High Luminosity Asymmetric e + e - B-Factory(SLAC) Gravity Wave Interferometer(Hanford)

Linear Collider (Future) e + e - -> HZ  Precise Higgs studies  Supersymmetry  Extra dimensions or ???  Precision electroweak  Interesting for new students U Oregon group is VERY involved

BaBar Physics High Luminosity Asymmetric e + e - 100M BB,  already! Measure CP violation Matter-antimatter Rare B decays New physics Tau lepton physics

CP Violation in B 0 decays Fully reconstruct one B 0 (or B 0 ) as a tag Reconstruct second B in CP eigenstate (J/  S vs. J/  L ) Time dependence => CP violation e - (9 GeV) e + (3 GeV)  = 0.56 B tag B CP zzzz ~250  m
