Look for new physics that could explain these mysteries
If Not the SM What? Standard Model predictions validated to high precision, however Standard Model fails to answer many fundamental questions Gravity not a part of the SM What is the very high energy behaviour? At the beginning of the universe? Grand unification of forces? Dark Matter? Astronomical observations of indicate that there is more matter than we see Where is the Antimatter? Why is the observed universe mostly matter? Look for new physics that could explain these mysteries Look at weak processes which have often been the most unusual: B Physics!

Bs Mesons d b s b 79 GHz Very interesting right from the start.
The Bs known about since UA1 experiment in 1987. Could infer the existence of a very fast oscillating meson SS vs OS leptons New physics and the Bs Meson One example: Higgs couples to mass, heavier mesons of interest Investigate Spectroscopy Rare Decays Lifetime and Oscillations CP Violation very fast b s Z' Many new physics possibilities!

Bs Lifetime and Bs Width-lifetime difference between eigenstantes Bs,Short,Light CP even Bs,Long,Heavy CP odd (without CP violation) New physics can contribute in penguin diagrams Measurements Lifetimes in flavor specific modes: Bs → Ds, Bs → Dsl Lifetime in CP even states: Bs K+ K-, Bs → Ds(*)Ds(*) May account for most of the width difference Measure both lifetimes in Bs J/ Separate CP states with angular distributions and measure lifetimes Look for CP Violation Many Orthogonal Methods!
10
Bs Lifetime Lifetimes in flavor specific modes: Bs → Ds, Bs → Dsl
Equal mix of Bs,Short,Light and Bs,Long,Heavy at t=0 Measures: Dominated by Tevatron Measurements
11
Bs CP Even States Lifetimes in CP specific, even, modes: Bs K+ K-,Bs → Ds(*)Ds(*) CDF: Bs K+ K- (Bs→ K+K-)=1.53±0.18 ± 0.02 ps / > 0.23 0.03 Shorter than flavor specific CDF: Bs → DsDs / > 2BR(Bs → Ds(*)Ds(*)) > 0.012(95%CL) DØ: Bs → Ds(*)Ds(*) Inclusive rate accounts for most of / > 0.036 Contributes to /

CP Violation will change this picture
Bs: Bs J/ Directly measure lifetimes in Bs J/ Separate CP states by angular distribution and measure lifetimes A0 = S + D wave P even A|| = S + D wave P even A = P wave P odd CP Violation will change this picture Bs,Short,Light CP even Bs,Long,Heavy CP odd
13
Bs Results: Bs J/ Assuming no CP violation
CDF: Bs = 0.02 0.05 0.01 ps-1 DØ: Bs = ps-1 Putting all the measurements together Fall 07, new results ~20% better Next CP Violation
14
Bshh: Direct CP Violation
Direct CP violation expected to be large in some Bs decays Some theoretical errors cancel out in B0, Bs CP violation ratios Challenging because best direct CP violation modes, two body decays, have overlapping contributions from all the neutral B hadrons Separation: mass, momentum imbalance, and dE/dx First Observations
15
Bshh: Direct CP Violation
BR(Bs K) = (5.0 0.75 1.0) x 10-6 Good agreement with recent prediction ACP expected to be 0.37 in the SM Ratio expected to be 1 in the SM New physics possibilities can be probed by the ratio Lipkin, Phys.Lett. B621 (2005) 126
