  6. CP symmetry CPLEAR 1964: Christenson, Cronin, Fitch and TurlayCP violation in the decay of neutral kaons A CP-violating process offers an absolute way of distinguishinga world of anti-matter from a world of matter Is CP, a good symmetry for all interactions including the weak interaction? Cosmology:CP violation is one of the three necessary conditions to produce aglobal excess of matter in the Universe (Andreï Sakharov, 1967) CP violation studies at BaBar

  11. Is the CKM mechanism sufficient? CP violation in the quark sectoris not enough to generate the baryon asymmetry of our Universe Antimatter in the Universe? Understand the origin of CP violation in the Standard Model The Kobayashi & Maskawa mechanism can it account for all the effects of CP violation that are observed in the quark sector? and if possible, reveal inconsistencies between experimental data and theoretical predictions Possible manifestations of New Physics? Evidence for new sources of CP violation? What can we do? CP violation studies at BaBar

  14. B Mixing Certain mesons can do a neat little trick (K0, D0, B0) A B0 meson can change into an anti B0 meson (B0) This is called “mixing”. It means these particles can (and do) oscillate into their anti-particles and back again The oscillation frequency is about 0.5 ps-1! CP violation studies at BaBar

  42. Separating Signal from Background (II) qq e+ e- e+ e- Signal B Other B • The other powerful thing we can do is to exploit the “event shape” • In the CM, the decay products of the B are distributed roughly spherically. This is because the pair of B mesons weigh only slightly less than the . They are essentially produced at rest • The continuum is light quark pair production, so there is lots of extra energy. All the decay products bunch into “jets” • We define variables that measure the degree of “jettiness” of the decay to tell us how more or less likely it is to be signal or background CP violation studies at BaBar
