Beauty at the Tevatron Brendan Casey SEL11, TIFR, 1/11/11
Tevatron • Only machine currently at both the Energy and Luminosity Frontiers • Complementary to other machines at each frontier • Large Bs data set compared to B factories • Different channels compared to LHC • qqbar WH lnbbvrsgg H gg • Weak sector (charginos, neutralinos) vrs strong sector (squarks, gluinos) • Interference effects (top Afb) vrs resonance search (GA) • Will be superseded by LHC and super B factories but expect to be relevant for a few more years • Still have a lot to analyze with the 2011 data. pbar complex Now producing 2.6 ng of antimatter per year B.

Measurement history at Dzero • 1992: first internal note outlining measurement • 1994: 7.3 pb-1: A = (81-96)/(81+96) • 1996: significant asymmetries observed due to asymmetries in range-out. • From then on, Dzero switches polarity every few weeks to enable this measurement • 2003: analysis of ~100 pb-1RunII data indicates we are competitive. Begin planning for a 1 fb-1 result. • Dimuon result. Single muon result ruled out because completely dominated by Kaon asymmetry Iron toroid + - B. Casey, SEL11
Measurement history at Dzero • 1 fb-1 result: • ASL = -(0.92 ± 0.44 ± 0.32)% • World leading measurement • Dominant error is now Kaon asymmetry determined using D*Dp, DKp, KmX • Raw asymmetry A = -(0.05± 0.13)% • Kaon asymmetry AK = -(0.23 ± 0.08)% B. Casey, SEL11
2010 Update • Need a way to constrain the Kaon asymmetry • Two samples: • Like-sign dimuon system = physics + Kaon • Single muon system: asymmetry is almost entirely from the Kaons • Use the single muon system to make a high statistics measurement of the kaon asymmetry and subtract it from the dimuon asymmetry B. Casey, SEL11
Dimuon results • ASL = (0.957±0.251±0.146)% • Systematic error dominated by Kaon asymmetry • In dimuon analysis: • 2.1% • In combined single and dimuon analysis: • 0.15% • Verified the B content by measuring the mixing probability in the first fb-1 data set • X = 0.136±0.001±0.024 • PDG: 0.1281± 0.0076 B.

Future Large Bs CPV shrinks available parameter space • The large anomalous CPV in Bs mixing reported at the Tevatron + minimal flavor violation predicts EDMs are “around the corner!” • Gino Isidori, ICHEP 2010 plenary talk • Need lepton and quark EDM searches to distinguish new weak interaction from a small QQCD • Need different leptons to determine if the new phase is universal • New g-2 experiment: muon EDM below 10-21 e-cm • Nuclear EDMs can be probed at Project X wit copious production of high-Z nuclei to perform EDM measurements far beyond limits from Hg 10-25 Titanium 10-30 neutron Mercury Bs CPV Buras, Isidori, Paradisi arXiv:1007.5291
Conclusions • Beauty at the Tevatron has been beautiful (even in a somewhat ugly environment.) • Next round of updates should still be interesting and competitive. Then its LHCb’s turn. • In any case, the Tevatron has clearly demonstrated the advantages of having a luminosity frontier program at an energy frontier machine. B. Casey, SEL11
