  1. B Physics of Future Hadron Facilities Roger Forty (CERN) • Extracting the physics • B physics sensitivities Workshop on the Unitarity Triangle (CKM 2005) San Diego, 17 March 2005

  2. Introduction • Until last month, “B physics of future hadron facilities” would have included both the LHC and Tevatron • Results from CDF/D0 at Tevatron have demonstrated that precision B physics is possible at hadron machines.They were to be followed by a dedicated B experiment • BTeV was a direct competitor for LHCb at the LHCWe benefited in LHCb from the fruitful exchange of ideas(for example on triggering strategy) • However, BTeV has now been cancelled, so this talk becomes “B physics at the LHC” How can B physics at the LHC progress beyond the impressive results of the B factories? Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  3. LHC experiments LHCb (that will do B physics) roughly to scale ATLAS/CMS are general purpose experiments,optimized for high pT discovery physics LHCb is a dedicated B physics experiment ATLAS CMS Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  4. LHC environment • pp collisions at s = 14 TeV, bunch crossing rate = 40 MHzLarge b cross section sbb ~ 500 mb (but ~ 0.5% of total) • At high luminosity, pile-up of pp interactions per bunch crossing: • LHCb chooses L ~ 2 1032 cm-2s-1(tuneable by defocusing beams)Should be available from day one107 s taken as nominal “year” = 2 fb-1 1012 bb produced/year • ATLAS/CMS expect L ~ 1–2 1033for the first two years  10–20 fb-1/yearthen 1034 cm-2s-1(> 20 piled-up interactions!) • LHC machine had a problem with cryogenic plumbing, now resolved: first beam expected in 2007 pp interactions/crossing Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  5. LHCb p p I will focus on LHCb, quoting results from ATLAS/CMS where relevantForward peaked production of b hadrons at LHC LHCb is a forward spectrometer (10–300 mrad) pTvsh for detected B hadrons 100 mb 230 mb Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  13. Flavour tagging • Kaon tagging most powerful for LHCb(K± from the “opposite side” b c s) • Combined power for Bs~6% (LHCb)(cf ~ 1% at CDF/D0, ~ 30% at B Factories)Lower for B0 (~ 4%) due to reduced same-side tagging powerRecent Neural-Net based studies achieved 9% for Bs tagging (not used here) Tagging power eD2 = e(1-2w)2 (in %) Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  14.

  20. sin 2b • Measurement of sin 2b is not a central physics goal of LHCb (since so well measured by B factories) But will be an important check of CP analyses + can search for direct CP violating term  cos Dmdt • Expect 240k reconstructed B0 J/yKS events/year Precision sstat(sin 2b) ~ 0.02in one year for LHCb • ATLAS/CMS expect similar sensitivity for 30 fb-1 B0 mass resolution (MeV) ACP(t) (background subtracted) Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  21. fs and DGs • Bs  J/f is the Bs counterpart of the golden mode B0  J/KSCP asymmetry measures fs, the phase of Bs oscillation • In Standard Model fs is small: fs = -2l2h ~ -0.04  sensitive probe for new physics • Final state is admixture of CP-even and odd contributions angular analysis of decay products requiredL(t) = (1-R-) L+(t) (1+cos2qtr)/2 + R- L-(t) (1-cos2qtr)Fit for sinfs, R- and DGs/Gs • 120k signal events/year in LHCbs(sinfs) ~ 0.06, s(DGs/Gs) ~ 0.02(Dms = 20 ps-1)Including Bs  J/h will increase sensitivity:only ~ 7k events/year, but pure CP state • ATLAS/CMS achieve similar sensitivities for 20 fb-1 Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  22. g from Bs DsK • Bs Ds-K+ and Bs Ds+K-(b  u transition, BR ~ 7 × lower)both tree decays, which interfere via Bs mixing • CP asymmetry measures g + fsVery little theoretical uncertainty, insensitive to new physicsfs will be determined using Bs J/yf decays  extract g • Bs Ds-p+ gives background to DsK (BR ~ 12  higher)Suppress using PID residual contamination only ~ 10% • 5400 signal events/year (LHCb)S/B (from bb) > 1 (at 90% CL)(only 1 bkg event in wider MB window) Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  23. g from Bs DsK • Allow for strong phase difference D between the two diagramsFit two time-dependent asymmetries: • Phase of Ds+K- = D - (g + fs)Phase ofDs-K+ = D + (g + fs)extract both D and(g + fs) • s(g) ~ 14 in one year (LHCb)but expect it to be statistically limited • Discrete ambiguities in gcan be resolved by comparisonwith B0  D-p+ decays[Fleischer, see talk of Wilkinson] Asymmetries (5 years data) Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  24. g from B0 D0K*0 • Measure 6 decay rates: B0 D0K*0, D0K*0 and D0CPK*0(+ CP conjugates), where D0CP  K+K- (or p+p-) • Appropriate construction of amplitudes allows both g and strong phase D to be extracted [Gronau & Wyler, Dunietz] • Decays are self-tagging (through K*0  K+p-) and time integrated LHCb annual yields(for g = 65, D = 0) s(g) ~ 8(55 < g < 105,-20 < D < 20) Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  25. g from B  h+h- d g() • Time-dependent CP asymmetries for B0 p+p- and Bs K+K-ACP(t) = Adir cos(Dmt) + Amix sin(Dmt)Adir and Amix depend on weak phases g and fd (or fs), and on ratio of penguin to tree amplitudes = d eiq • Under U-spin symmetry [Fleischer](interchange of d and s quarks)dpp=dKK and qpp=qKK 4 measurements, 3 unknowns (taking fs & fd from other modes)  can solve for g • 26k B0 p+p-events/year (LHCb)37k Bs K+K- s(g) ~ 5 • Uncertainty from U-spin assumptionSensitive to new physics in penguins Bs KK B   Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  28. B0 K*0m+m- AFB(s) • Suppressed decay (DB = 1 FCNC), BR ~ 10-6 • Forward-backward asymmetry in the mm rest-frame AFB(s) is sensitive probe of new physics [Ali et al] ^ AFB(s) LHCb: 4400 events/year, S/B > 0.4 AFB(s) reconstructed using toy MC (two years data, background subtracted)Zero point located to ±0.04 ATLAS: 2000 events, S/B = 7 (30 fb-1) ^ ^ s = (mmm/mB)2 Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  29. Bs m+m- • Rare decay: BR(Bs m+m-) = 3.5  10-9 in Standard ModelSensitive to new physics, can be strongly enhanced in SUSY • LHCb expect 17 selected signal events/year for SM BRProblem to estimate the background: no events selected from full background sample, but only corresponds to S/B > 2 • ATLAS/CMS yields from 100 fb-1 (1 year at 1034 cm-2s-1) Background estimates (from 1999) differ significantly, update awaited Prospect of significant BR measurement, even for SM value Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  30. Other channels Bs  f  • B0fKS is challenging for the triggerExpect ~ 1000 signal events/year in LHCb • However, if new physics is showing up in B0fKS, important to also examine other b  s penguin decays: Bs ff, KK, fg…LHCb will reconstruct large samples of each • Not yet systematically explored: Bc and b-baryon physics • Recent assignment of high rate output streams from the HLT opens possibility of charm physics: > 108 reconstructed D*/year,and inclusive b trigger (eg on single m) should give the equivalent of ~ 109 perfectly tagged b-hadron decays/year • Although detector is under construction, still room to adjust trigger to select channels of topical interest —proposals welcome!  ~ 65 MeV Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  31. Systematics • Some potential sources of systematic uncertainty: • B/B production asymmetry • Charge-dependent detection efficiencies • Background asymmetries • Trigger bias (eg for flavour tag, proper-time acceptance) • Some experimental handles available: • Control channels (eg J/yK* for J/yKS, etc) • Regular reversal of spectrometer B field • Simultaneous fit of signal and background (eg DsK/Dsp) • Analysis of tagging performance in separate categories(eg triggered on B signal/triggered on other tracks) • High rate HLT unbiased samples will allow study using data Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  32. LHCb installation status The LHCb pit 4 March 2005 Muon filter Dipole magnet (completed) Calorimeter frame Installation will be completed in 2006 Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities

  33. Conclusions • Experiments at the LHC expect to take B physics a significant step further than the B factories:access to other b hadron species + high statistics • LHCb combines excellent vertexing and particle IDwith flexible trigger, dedicated to B physics Various channels studied, differing sensitivity to new physics • ATLAS and CMS will also contribute significantlyCompetitive for modes with muons and small BR • Comparison with a Super B factory is interesting… but construction of LHC experiments is progressing fast: we expect to be taking data in two years’ time the case for a Super B factory should be made relative to the sum of the B factories + LHC Roger Forty B Physics at Future Hadron Facilities
