  29. Measurements of Ru Error on Ru dominated by error on |Vub| B Physics from the B Factories

  30. Semileptonic bu decays In principle, simple measurement of rate  |Vub|2 • But huge rate of semileptonic bc to remove Inclusive BXul+nl • Use high momentum lepton (“endpoint”), Xu mass (or both) • Need to correct for missing parts of spectra Exclusive B0/+p/0l+nl • Correct B+ decays for lifetime difference • Need to include form factor f+(q2=mln2) for Bp transition B Physics from the B Factories

  36. Trees versus loops Trees Loops B Physics from the B Factories

  37. Trees versus loops Trees Loops Consistent within errors B Physics from the B Factories

  38. Prospects for the future • BaBar and Belle only half way • Both aiming for around 1ab1each over next two years • Some measurements are clearly statistics limited • Sin2b/f1 bccs vs. bsss comparison • All angle measurements • Vub is mainly theory limited • Some experimental improvements possible • Theory error can be reduced but with substantial work • More data also brings new techniques and decay modes • Improvements better than N can be expected • The Tevatron and LHC may also help us out  B Physics from the B Factories

  39. Conclusions • Standard Model is in very good shape • NP must be correction, not alternative, to SM in flavour sector • Little room for any NP in trees; possible in loops • Items to watch… • Vub vs. sin2b/f1 (NP in B0 mixing loop?) • sin2b/f1 in bccs vs. bsss (NP in bsg penguin loop?) • …but neither is significant at this stage • More data will help and will come • More likely to limit NP through loops than discover it • NP in flavor sector is constrained • Flavor physics must be considered in any NP model building B Physics from the B Factories
