Penguin Theory – A brief Overview B mesons are low energy decays at scale = m b ~ 5 GeV Formulate a low energy effective theory : Generalization of Fermi Theory of -decay. b S/ d t W+ b S/ d
6
Operator Product Expansion b S/ d C i : Wilson Coefficients – contains short distance (high energy) perturbative component Q i : Local Operators – contains long distance (low energy) non-perturbative component (renormalization) scale dependence cancels in C and Q
7
Wilson Coefficients b S/ d C i i=1,2 current-current, i=3-6 gluonic penguins i=7-10 Electroweak Penguins C i calculated at =M w and evolved down to =m b. Effects of new high mass physics appear in C e.g constraints on C 7 and C 8 from B(B->X s ) C7C7 C8C8
8
Matrix Elements b S/ d are long distance (low-energy ) non-perturbative component If X is exclusive state e.g | K* two possibilities 1.Lattice QCD Lattice spacing >> compton wavelength of b -> Large errors 2.QCD sum rules: Relates resonances to vacuum structure of QCD Neither approach gives precise estimates – limits exclusive physics. Uncertainties cancel in ratios of modes or asymmetries.
9
Inclusive Matrix Elements b S/ d If X is an inclusive state Leading term is short distance quark contribution and non- perturbative effects appears at 1/m b 2 –i.e (O(1%)) corrections 0 Inclusive measurements are much more sensitive to new physics

Integrated luminosity on-resonance data off-resonance data Currently 10 BB event per second. since 2000 BaBar has recorded 430M BB events about 8% of data is taken below the Y(4S) resonance results presented here are based on 90 fb -1 - 340 fb -1 on-resonance data Shutdown due to accident
14
Other B meson experiments CLEO did much of the pioneering work. Stopped in 2001 BaBar forced to shut down for a year in 2004-2005 by DOE safety after accident Though BELLE has larger datasets BaBar remains competitive BaBar will stop running in 2008. Hope for 1000 fb-1 at that time.

The unitarity triangle Photon spectrum in B->X s helps reduce error on V ub Overconstraining the triangle may reveal new sources of CP violation. Photon spectrum in B->X s helps reduce error on V bc
25
Matter-Antimatter Asymmetry in Universe CP violation is an essential component of the presumed mechanism for generating this asymmetry But: The Standard model has insufficient CP violation to account for the observed asym. Presumably extra CP violation comes from new physics that couples to quarks or leptons

Inclusive Penguins: B->Xs The non-perturbative corrections are a few percent. Quark-hadron duality Recently a new NNLO calculation for B(B->X s ) has been completed (Misiak,Asatrian,Bieri,Czakon,Czarnecki,Ewerth,Ferroglia,Gambino Gorbahn,Greub,Haisch,Hovhannisyan,Hurth,Mitov,Poghosyan,Slusarczyh) Major undertaking involving thousands of diagrams. New precise Calculation has renewed interest in the field Compare to NLO:
31
Theory Errors on B->Xs At NLO the choice of charm quark renormalization scale had been a Problem. New calculation resolves this issue and errors are now understood NLO NNLO Scale dependence on b c (GeV) LO NLO NNLO Scale dependence on c Theory errors from choice of Renormalization scales As go to higher orders this is reduced as expected. b (GeV)

35
Experimental Challenge B -> X s BB qq To reduce large backgrounds without cutting on or Xs i.e a fully inclusive measurement Monte Carlo : Just require Model Dependence Note additional BB background
36
Two Methods for inclusive B X s MethodAdvantagesDisadvantages Fully inclusive don’t reconstruct X s Closest correspondence to inclusive B(B X s ). More Backgrounds Sum of exclusive B K n( Less background due to additional kinematic constraints. Better E resolution. More model dependence due to finite set of explicitly reconstructed B X s decays. Xs B Differ in treatment of Xs
