Vincenzo Vagnoni INFN Bologna LHCb light meeting 2 September, 2003
Overview • Selection efficiency summary • New parametrization of signal acceptance • bb background mass and proper time spectra • Proper time resolution studies • Changes to fast MC and fitter • Sensitivity on CP asymmetry terms • Sensitivity on the gamma angle
Annual yields and B/S ratios • Annual yields after L0xL1 triggers and offline selection as quoted in the TDR draft • B/S before trigger (only combinatorial bb background) • Agreed to use central values for B/S instead of upper limits
Parametrization of signal acceptance vs proper time • New parametrization of signal acceptance used • Depending on only one free parameter • No discontinuity of first derivative for t[0, ) • Better physical behavior and good fits with one less parameter New parametrization Old parametrization
bb background mass spectra • bb mass spectra after trigger and with slightly reduced offline-selection cuts (exponential fit) Bd2PiPi Slope=-1.7 Bs2KK Slope=-1.2 Bd2KPi Slope=-0.54 Bs2PiK Slope=-0.44
bb background proper time spectra (I) • Functional form for bb bacground proper time spectra guessed from untagged signal ones and fitted to bb data after trigger with slightly reduced offline selection cuts Bd2PiPi “lifetime” = (0.98±0.11) ps Bs2KK “lifetime” = (1.13±0.17) ps
bb background proper time spectra (II) Bd2KPi “lifetime” = (0.87±0.11) ps Bs2PiK “lifetime” = (1.15±0.16) ps
Proper time resolution (I) • Proper time resolution fitted with double gaussians Bd2PiPi Bs2KK Bs2PiK Bd2KPi
Proper time resolution (II) • Proper time resolution vs true proper time (triggered and offline selected events)
Proper time resolution (III) • Proper time resolution vs true proper time (triggered and offline selected events)
Changes to fast MC • As before only bb combinatorial background considered • Specific backgrounds that may exhibit their own CP violation not included in the model for the moment • Background mass generated in wide mass window with exponential shape according to fits to bb data • It is assumed that HLT will select mass in the range (4.9, 5.7) GeV/c2 • Background rate generated according to results of fits to bb data • Bd2PiPi and Bs2KK generated as before, simulating tagging and CP violation • Bd2KPi and Bs2PiK generated simulating tagging and direct CP violation (charge asymmetry) • Charge_asymmetry(Bd2KPi) Adir(Bs2KK) and Charge_asymmetry(Bs2PiK) Adir(Bd2PiPi)since they differ in the spectator quark only • New parametrization of signal acceptance taken into account

Changes to the fitter (I) • Combined extended maximum likelihood fit of Bd2PiPi and Bd2KPi (Bs2KK and Bs2PiK) in order to extract mistag fraction from data • Proper time resolution (double gaussian) and proper time acceptance with new parametrization from full GEANT simulation are used • The likelihood is multiplied by gaussian priors in order to use the measurements from • LHCb J/PsiPhi ( and for the Bs) • LHCb DsPi (M for the Bs) • PDG 2003 values ( and M for the Bd) • Results from LHCb JPsi/Ks on and M not available • Power series expansion in , and M inside the likelihood function very useful to reduce fit computing time • Details in forthcoming LHCb note
Changes to the fitter (II) • The likelihood fit is performed against 17 parameters: • Re(), Im() for Bd2PiPi (Bs2KK) • Charge asymmetry for Bd2KPi (Bs2PiK) • Mean Bd (Bs) mass and mass resolution (2 parameters) • One parameter for mass distribution of background for Bd2PiPi (Bs2KK) • One parameter for mass distribution background for Bd2KPi (Bs2PiK) • 2 parameters for proper time distribution of background for Bd2PiPi (Bs2KK) • 2 parameters for proper time distribution of background for Bd2KPi (Bs2PiK) • M for the Bd (Bs) • for the Bd (Bs) • for the Bd (Bs) • Wrong tagging fraction for Bd2PiPi and Bd2KPi (Bs2KK and Bs2PiK) • Tagged event yield for Bd2PiPi (Bs2KK) • Tagged event yield for Bd2KPi (Bs2PiK)
Changes to the fitter (III) • Once the fit has converged Re() and Im() are transformed to Adir and Amix • Fit not performed directly on Adir and Amix since Re() has an ambiguous sign if expressed in terms of Adir and Amix • Error and correlation propagation from Re() and Im() to Adir and Amix if performed analytically is far from being trivial: one has to calculate a new full 17x17 covariance matrix (due to correlations) • Propagation is quite easy if performed with a MC technique • Generate multivariate 17-dimensional gaussian distribution according to covariance matrix returned by the likelihood fit • For each extraction of the 17-tuple of random numbers take Re() and Im() and calculate Adir and Amix • Estimate errors and correlation for Adir and Amix on a large sample of random generations (done with 1000000 of random samples per fit) • Library function to perform the generation available from CERNLIB (CORSET, CORGEN)

Results and discussion • Resolution on wrong tagging fraction after one year • 1.0% for Bd2PiPi and Bd2KPi • 6.1%, 6.7%, 7.9%, 9.1% for Bs2KK and Bs2PiK (depending on M=15, 20, 25, 30 ps-1) • In the previous analysis an error of 1% was assumed both for Bd2PiPi and Bs2KK • It was right for Bd2PiPi but underestimated for Bs2KK • Thus, the importance of making a combined fit • The larger error on wrong tag fraction for Bs2KK,Bs2PiK is due to the smaller event yield of Bs2PiK • This larger error has the effect of introducing a dependence of the CP sensitivity of Bs2KK on the true values of Adir and Amix, and also a non negligible correlation between the two terms • It is possible to demonstrate that this fact is expected • It’s then necessary to make a scan also on the true values of Adir and Amix to study the sensitivity • The same thing does not apply to the Bd2PiPi, where the error is 1% and the dependence on the true values of Adir and Amix remains moderate

Conclusions • Physics model rather advanced • But in the future need to include specific two body backgrounds that may exhibit their own CP violation • Systematics still to be studied and understood • Sensitivity results for TDR frozen now • A bit of delay, but it was important to make a combined fit to extract mistag fraction from data, rather hard to make a realistic estimate of the resolution on omega otherwise • Dependence of sensitivity on true values of Adir and Amix for the Bs2KK channel introduced by larger error on omega. Scan required and done! • Update TDR B2hh CP sensitivity section • Within one day from now will send around a modified version accounting for the new approach and results • Finalize and release notes on selection and sensitivity studies • Note on selection quite advanced • Note on sensitivity quite advanced in the description of the formalism. Need to include all the results • Drafts of both can be released in 2-3 days from now
