Outline

What is CP Violation? Why is it interesting?

Fundamental Symmetries

CP Violation in the Standard Model

Studies at e+ e− Asymmetric B Factories

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 3

What is CP Violation?Observation that the Laws of Physics are not exactly the same underthe combined transformation:

Charge conjugation C particle ↔ antiparticleParity P left-handed helicity ↔ right-handed helicity

CP symmetry is conserved in strong and electromagnetic interactionsBUT weak interactions violate CP symmetry

Manifestation: different decay rates in K and B meson decays

For example, the decay rate for K0 → π− µ+ νµ is slightly higher thanthat for K0 → π+ µ− νµ (rate asymmetry = 0.3%)

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 4

Why is CP Violation Interesting?Phenomenon discovered in 1964 but not yet well understood or tested

Understanding of the baryon - antibaryon asymmetry of the Universe

requires three ingredients: (A. Sakharov, 1967)

1. Baryon number violating reactions occur

2. CP Violation (CPV) takes place in these reactions

3. Reactions occur out of thermal equilibrium (Big Bang)

⇒ Without CPV all matter would have annihilated with antimatter after

the Big Bang

+ level of CPV needed is much higher than the Standard Model can allow

Most extensions of the Standard Model provide new sources of CPV

⇒ CPV studies are sensitive to New Physics

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 5

Fundamental Symmetries (I)Invariance of field equations under certain transformations

→ Implies existence of underlying symmetry→ Results in conservation laws (or forbidden processes)

Examples:Invariance under translations in space

→ Conservation of momentumInvariance under translations in time

→ Conservation of energy Invariance under phase transformations

→ Conservation of electric charge

+ There are 3 important discrete symmetries: C, P and T

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 6

Fundamental Symmetries (II)

• Charge Conjugation C– Particle ↔ Anti-particle– Charged particles not eigenstates

+ -

⟩±≠⟩=⟩ −+− eeeC |||

⟩+=⟩⟩−=⟩ 00 |||| ππγγ CC

Strong and electromagnetic interactions are observed to be invariant under C

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 7

Fundamental Symmetries (III)• Parity P

– Particles have intrinsic parity⟩−=⟩⟩−=⟩ 00 |||| ππγγ PP

Parity operation flips helicity state (left-handed → right-handed)

helicity: projection of spin vector along direction of motion

Strong and electromagnetic interactions conserve P

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 8

Fundamental Symmetries (IV)

• Time reversal T– Reverses direction of time

t - t

• Time invariance of a reaction implies equal rate for the time-reversed reaction:

MgAlp 2427 +⇔+ α

Once again, strong and electromagnetic interactions are invariant under T

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 9

Fundamental Symmetries (V)

• The 3 operations (C,P, and T) are connected through invariance of combined CPT for all interactions

• CPT Theorem: all quantum field theories are invariant under this combo (any order)– Consequences:

√ particles and antiparticles have same mass and lifetime

√ particles obey spin statistics (Fermi or Bose)

√ CP violation implies T violation as well

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 10

Fundamental Symmetries (VI)BUT: weak interactions do NOT conserve either C or P

• First observation of parity violation in weak decays of 60Co (C.S.Wu et al., 1957)

• Both C and P are completely violated in charged current weak interactions (W couples only to left-handed particles)

• Combined CP operation yields same muon decay rates

Observation of CPV in the K0 – K0 systemBefore 1964:

Strong interaction flavor eigenstates K0 (sd) and K0 (sd) are superpositionsof mass eigenstates K0

S and K0L

⇒ CP transforms matter ↔ antimatter

Physical states K0S and K0

L are eigenstatesof CP if Hamiltonian is invariant under CP

Cronin, Fitch, Christenson, Turlay(1964):

Measure K0L decay into CP=+1 state

⇒ CP violation in kaon weak decays

Other manifestations of CPV alsoobserved in kaon decays buteffects are always small, e.g.

CP Violation in the Standard Model (I)How does the SM account for CPV in Kaon decays?

• Kobayashi and Maskawa (1973) proposeexistence of 3rd family of quarks(before discovery of charm and tau)

⇒ CPV originates from an irreducible phasein the quark mixing matrix

Quark mixing matrix now calledCabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix

S.Willocq (UMass) CP Violation - NEPPSR 2002 13

CP Violation in the Standard Model (II)• CKM matrix originates from the fact that

weak eigenstates are different from quark mass eigenstates

• CKM matrix plays an important role in charged current weak interaction(e.g. β decay n → p e− ν involves a d → u transition)

CP Violation in the Standard Model (IV)Properties of CKM matrix• How many parameters?

9 complex elements ⇒ 18 parameters (not predicted by the theory)

However, (1) VCKM is unitary: e.g. |Vtd|2 + |Vts|2 + |Vtb|2 = 1

⇒ 9 independent parameters

(2) Quark fields can be redefined to remove 5 arbitrary phases

⇒ 4 independent parameters

3 angles + 1 phase

Note: if only 2 families of quarks ⇒ 2x2 matrix ⇒ 1 (real) independent param

⇒ no phase and no CPV

⇒ need at least 3 families of quarks to get an irreducible phase in thequark mixing matrix

CP Violation in the Standard Model (VII)How does the CKM phase give rise to CPV?Consider CP-conjugate B → f mode

B → f amplitudes:

Decay rate:

⇒ Rates are different for B and B decays

⇒ This kind of CPV is referred to as “direct” CPV or “CPV in decay”it requires two amplitudes with different weak (CKM) and strong phases

In general, CPV originates from a quantum mechanical interferencebetween amplitudes with different phases

CP Violation in B DecaysWhy B Factories?

• CPV effects expected to be much larger in some B decay modes than

those observed in kaon decays

Modes involving quark transitions between 3rd and 1st families:

these elements have large imaginary parts ⇒ large weak phases

• CPV phenomenology much richer (many more decay modes)

• Some CPV measurements are particularly clean both theoretically

and experimentally, e.g., CPV in B0 → J/ψ K0s decays

⇒ Opportunity to test the Standard Model in a clean and new waye+ e- B Factories operating at SLAC (BaBar) and KEK (Belle) since 1999hadron collider experiments (CDF and D0) will also contribute soon

B0 – B0 SystemAs in the neutral kaon system, Heavy and Light mass eigenstates are superpositions of flavor eigenstates

System characterized bymass difference ∆m = mH – mL

width difference ∆Γ = ΓL – ΓH

Different time evolution for BH and BL

leads to B0 ↔ B0 oscillations withfrequency ∆m (a.k.a. “mixing”)

3 Classes of CP Violation (I)Need 2 amplitudes with different phase structure contributing to the same decay

→ 3 different ways to achieve this:1) CP violation in decay (a.k.a. direct CP violation)

two amplitudes with different weak phases & different strong phasese.g. compare BR(B+ → K+π0) and BR(B− → K−π0) but strong phases are not known

2) CP violation in mixing (a.k.a. indirect CP violation)

Need relative phase between mass and width parts of mixing matrixCP-violating asymmetries expected to be small in Standard Model

3 Classes of CP Violation (II)3) CP violation in interference between decays with and without mixing

Final state f is a CP eigenstate (e.g. J/ψ K0s or π+ π−)

need to have CPV (no strong phases needed!)

which can happen even if → only need weak phase

+ asymmetries can be large & do NOT require unknown strong phase+ small theoretical uncertainties in some cases (e.g. J/ψ K0

CP Violation in B0 → J/ψ K0s Decays (II)Expect large CP asymmetry

Standard Model fit yields sin 2β = 0.75 ± 0.09 S.Mele, PRD59, 113011 (1999)

Small branching ratio

BR(B0 → J/ψ K0) = (8.9 ±1.2) x 10-4

BR(J/ψ → l+ l−) = (5.9 ±0.1) x 10-2

⇒ combined BR ≈ 10-4 for e & µ modes+ Need to reconstruct J/ψ → e+ e−, µ+ µ− and K0s → π+ π−

(account for detector and selection efficiency ~50%)⇒ Requires very large sample of B mesons

“The” Unitarity Triangle (IV)Possible situation in 2007 showing inconsistency between the measurement of the sides and of the angles of the triangle:

Assume uncertainties of 3% in |Vcb|, 10% in |Vub|, <1% in ∆md and ∆ms

Assume uncertainties of 1% in sin 2β, 5o in α and 10o in γ

Inconsistency between constraints might look like:

SummaryCP Violation:

New window into the Standard Model of Particle Physics,relevant to matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe,sensitive to New Physics

CKM quark mixing matrix for 3 families of quarks contains an irreducible

phase that induces CP violation in weak charged current interactions

B Factories have observed (large) CP violation for the first time outside of the neutral kaon system (B0 → J/ψ K0

s decays)

Current data is in excellent agreement with the CKM picture of CPV

Probing of the SM continues with larger data samples at the B Factoriesand begins at the Fermilab Tevatron
