35.

41. BaBar is entering in its “1/ab” phase. Expected major outcomes are:  Precision knowledge of the flavor sector of the SM  Measurements of CP violation and decay properties in penguin-dominated decay modes  Measurements of rare decays in charm and tau physics With the possiblity to reveal deviations from the SM [If we continue to see no deviation at these precisions- the results will likely serve as major constraints on the flavor structure of New Physics- to be seen at LHC.] Summary

42. “See your tax dollars at work!” At ICHEP’06 BaBar has achieved record productivity, overwhelming the direct competitor In the topics where the luminosity matters the refined statistical analysis technique makes BaBar competitive even with 35% less luminosity (345 M BB/547 M BB) Showed dominance in several areas such as: –CPV in b  s penguins New modes –Measurements related to  First observation of B      –Dalitz Time Dependent analyses First full analysis of B  KKK 0 (including  K 0 ) –D-mixing in multibody D decays Innovative technique to exploit also these decay modes –Leptonic B Decays After Belle corrected a mistake in their efficiencies, we have a measurement of BF(B   ) with same accuracy as them and potentially 40% better by fall –semileptonic B decays, Charm and Charmonium spectroscopy, … http://www-public.slac.stanford.edu/babar/ICHEP06_papers_temp.htm
