2. SuperB is a project sustained by an international collaboration aiming at a regional project: the construction of a very high luminosity (10 36 cm -2 s -1 ) asymmetric e + e - Super Flavor Factory, with location, inside or near the INFN Frascati National Laboratory. A Conceptual Design Report, signed by 85 Institutions was published in March 2007 (arXiv:0709.0451 [hep-ex]) A TDR is now under construction to be ready by end 2010. An Intermediate Document ( White Paper) in the next few months. SuperB: a ≥10 36 cm -2 s -1 e+ e- collider 27 November,2009 2 Marcello A. Giorgi

11. Marcello A. Giorgi11 Charm Charm events at threshold are very clean: pure DD, no additional fragmentation High signal/bkg ratio: optimal for decays with neutrinos. Quantum Coherence: new and alternative CP violation measurement wrt to  (4S). Unique opportunity to measure D 0 -D 0 relative phase. Increased statistics is not an advantage running at threshold: cross- section 3x wrt 10GeV but luminosity 10x smaller. SuperB lumi at 4 GeV = 10 35 cm -2 s -1 produces ~10 9 DD pairs per month of running. (using Cleo-c cross-section measurement [  (e + e -  D 0 D 0 )~3.6 nb ] +[  (e + e -  D + D - )~2.8 nb] ~ 6.4 nb) Super tau-charm could well study mixing and CP violation direct/indirect, but not in time dependent analysis as done in in B factories. Time-dependent measurements at 4 GeV only possible at SuperB to extract weak Phase thanks to the improved time measurement and to the option of running at charm threshold. 27 November,2009

26. Beam Strahlung Single shared QD0 (conventional design): the beam lines are displaced w.r.t. the quadrupole magnetic axis. The off-energy particles are diverted into the vacuum chamber producing bkg. Double QD0 (Siam Twins Quadrupoles): the beam lines are tilted w.r.t. the quadrupole magnetic axis. Only the softer particles produces bkg. (smaller rate, easier shielding) CDR: QD0 shared by HER & LER Mike Sullivan Double QD0 for HER & LER 27 November,200926Marcello A. Giorgi

30. DETECTOR: Particle Identification Hadronic PID system essential for P( ,K)>0.7GeV/c (use dE/dx for p<0.7GeV/c) Baseline is to reuse BaBar DIRC barrel-only design – Excellent performance to 4GeV/c – Robust operation, Elegant mechanical support – Photon detectors outside field region – Radiation hard fused silica radiators Photon detector replacement – Baseline: Use pixelated fast PMTs with a smaller SOB to improve background performance by x50-100 with identical PID performance 27 November,200930Marcello A.
