Search for New Physics in CP violating measurements at LHCb Pavel Krokovny Heidelberg University on behalf of LHCb collaboration • Introduction • LHCb experiment • Physics results • bS measurements • prospects • Conclusion
Why CP violation? • CP violating parameters are well predicted by the Standard Model • Good sensitivity to New Physics • Huge statistics allows to perform a precise measurements
LHCb features • Large bb cross section & acceptance: huge statistics • Efficient trigger: reducing very high background • Excellent vertexing: resolving fast Bs oscillation • Good tracking & PID: signal reconstruction & background suppression
fS measurement in BS mixing • Bs->J/Yf is dominated by tree diagram. (penguin contribution is in order of 10-3-10-4) • Interference between direct & mixing decays gives a CP violating phase fS=fM-2fD. • fS in SM is small and well predicted: fS=0.03630.017 • Good sensitivity for New Physics: fS=fSSM+fSNP
Flavor tagging • Need to determine BS flavor at production time. • Two methods: Same Side (Kaon flavor) and Opposite Side (other B flavor) • Two key parameters: efficiency (e) and dilution factor D=(1-2w) • Effective tagging power proportional to eD2 • OST is calibrated on data using self-tagged B decays: B+gD*+mn, J/YK+ • SST calibration: using double tag method
Flavor tagging performance • Flavor tagger was tuned using 48K B0->D*-m+n events • Then we check performance on 6K B0->D-p+ events • eeff(SS+OS) = 4.31.0 % • compatible with MC expectation • Dmd = 0.4990.0320.003 ps-1 • world average: 0.5070.005 ps-1 Mixing in B0gD-p+ LHCb-Conf 2011-010

fS prospects Expectation!
Additional channels for fs • BsgJ/Y f0 • J/Y f0 is CP even eigenstate: angular analysis not needed. • Measurement of fS to come soon. (error ~1.5 of J/Yf) First observation! Phys.Let.B698:115, 2011
g measurements • Two set of methods to measure g: • loop diagram: Bghh (possible NP contribution) • tree diagram: BgDK (theoretically clean) • Difference in results will indicate for New Physics.

Conclusion • LHCb shown a good performance in B & charm physics. • B-factories & Tevatron sensitivity overtaken or matched on many topics using 2010 data only. • No sign of New Physics yet . • Great potential to search for New Physics in next years!
Control Channels B+ J/ K+ • Tagging calibration (opposite side) B0 J/ K*0 • Kinematically similar to BsJ/ • Angular acceptance checks: Polarization amplitudes • Check of tagging performance
LHCb data taking LHCb collected 37 pb-1 in 2010, and 670 pb-1 in 2011 One day of operation now corresponds to whole 2010 statistics!

CPV in charm • Indirect CPV: mixing rate of D0gD0 and D0gD0 differ • Direct CPV: amplitudes for D0/D0 differ, mixture of mixing and decay diagram. • The SM predicts very small CPV in charm: O(10-4). • Can be up to O(10-2) in some NP models. • Good prospects to search NP in charm! • Promising modes: CS modes with penguin contribution:
Charge asymmetry in D0gh+h- • Production and soft pion asymmetry cancel in ARAW(f)-ARAW(g) • There is no detection asymmetry in D0gh+h-
