B Physics at the Hadron Colliders: Bs Meson and New B Hadrons Matthew Herndon, March 2007 University of Wisconsin APS April Meeting • Introduction to B Physics • Tevatron, CDF and DØ • b Baryon • Selected BsResults • Conclusion BEACH 04 J. Piedra 1
If not the Standard Model, What? Standard Model fails to answer many fundamental questions Look for new physics that could explain these mysteries Look at weak processes which have often been the most unusual • Gravity not a part of the SM • What is the very high energy behaviour? • At the beginning of the universe? • Grand unification of forces? • Dark Matter? • Astronomical observations of indicate that there is more matter than we see • Baryogenesis and Where is the Antimatter? • Why is the observed universe mostly matter? • Standard Model predictions validated to high precision, however M. Herndon 2
A Little History d s Rich ground for studying new physics K0 • Everything started with kaons • Flavor physics is the study of bound states of quarks. • Kaon: Discovered using a cloud chamber in 1947 by Rochester and Butler. • Could decay to pions and had a very long lifetime: 10-10 sec • Bound state of up or down quarks with a new particle: the strange quark! • Needed the weak force to understand it’s interactions. • Neutron kaons were some of the most interesting kaons • What was that new physics? New particles, Rare decays, CP violation, lifetime/decay width differences, oscillations M. Herndon 3
B Hadrons s b b u d A fresh area to look for new physics! • New physics and the b Hadrons • Very interesting place to look for new physics(in our time) Higgs physics couples to mass so b hadrons are interesting • Same program. New Hadrons, Rare decays, CP violation, , oscillations • State of our knowledge on Heavy b Hadrons last year • Hints for Bs seen: by UA1 experiment in 1987. • BsandLbSeen: by the LEP experiments and Tevatron Run 1 • Some decays seen • However • Bs oscillation not directly seen • not measured • CP violation not directly seen • Most interesting rare decays not seen • No excited Bs or heavy b baryons observed M. Herndon 4
The Tevatron TRIGGERS ARE CRITICAL B physics benefits from more data - • 1.96TeV pp collider • Excellent performance and improving each year • Record peak luminosity in 2007: 2.8x1032sec-1cm-2 • CDF/DØ Integrated Luminosity • ~2fb-1 with good run requirements through end now • All critical systems operating including silicon • Have doubled the data twice in the last few years M. Herndon 5
CDF and DØ Detectors EXCELLENT TRACKING: EFFICIENCY EXCELLENT TRACKING: MASS RESOLUTION EXCELLENT TRACKING: TIME RESOLUTION • CDF Tracker • Silicon |η|<2, 90cm long, rL00 =1.3 - 1.6cm • 96 layer drift chamber 44 to 132cm • Triggered Muon coverage: |η|<1.0 • DØ Tracker • Silicon and Scintillating Fiber • Tracking to |η|<2 • New L0 on beam pipe! • Triggered Muon coverage: |η|<2.0 M. Herndon 6
The Results! • Combining together excellent detectors and accelerator performance • Ready to pursue a full program of B hadron physics • Today… New Heavy b Baryons Bs→ μμ Bs and CP violation Direct CP violation Bs Oscillations M. Herndon 7
New B Hadrons • Lb only established b baryon - LEP/Tevatron • Tevatron: large cross section and samples of Lb baryons • First possible heavy b baryon: • Predictions from HQET, Lattice QCD, potential models, sum rules… = 3/2+(Sb*) Sb: b{qq}, q = u,d; JP = SQ + sqq = 1/2+ (Sb) M. Herndon 8
bReconstruction • Strategy: • Establish a large sample of decays with an optimized selection and search for:b+Lb+ b: Nb = 3184 • Estimate backgrounds: • Random Hadronization tracks • Other B hadrons • Combinatoric • Extract signal in combined fit of Q distribution M. Herndon 9
bObservation • Observe Sb signal for all four expected Sb states • > 5s significance level • Mass differences M. Herndon 10
Bs(d)→ μ+μ-Method 9.8 X 107B+ events • Rare decay that can be enhanced in Higgs, SUSY and other models • Relative normalization search • Measure the rate of Bs(d)→ μ+μ-decays relative to BJ/K+ • Apply same sample selection criteria • Systematic uncertainties will cancel out in the ratios of the normalization • Example: muon trigger efficiency same for J/ or Bss for a given pT 400pb-1 N(B+)=2225 M. Herndon 11
Discriminating Variables 4 primary discriminating variables • Mass Mmm • CDF: 2.5σwindow:σ = 25MeV/c2 • DØ: 2σwindow:σ = 90MeV/c2 • CDF λ=cτ/cτBs, DØ Lxy/Lxy • α : |φB – φvtx| in 3D • Isolation: pTB/( trk + pTB) • CDF, λ, α and Iso: used in likelihood ratio • D0 additionally uses B and impact parameters and vertex probability • Unbiased optimization • Based on simulated signal and data sidebands M.
