Particle physics in new millennium Origin of masses Remote energy scale (Gravity) CP Violation and our universe
Why CP violation ? Needed for matter-antimatter asymmetry Standard Model CP-Violation (CKM) thought to be insufficient to explain universe asymmetry 37 years of intense experimental and theoretical effort of background
CP Violation in SM SM with three generation accommodates CP violation through phase in CKM matrix SM predicts a variety of CP violating asymmetries in the B-system,some of which can be cleanly interpreted in terms of CKM matrix elements
The Triangle CP Bd D*p , Kp
The Unitarity Triangle The sides are determined by measurements of the magnitudes of CKM elements CP asymmetries to fCP measures angles of triangle, in some cases with little or no theoretical ambiguities Goal of the B-physics program is to overconstrain triangle, critically test CKM structure of SM
