  1. Measurements of B Rare Decaysat the Tevatron Fabrizio Scuri a) – I.N.F.N. Pisa for the CDF and D0 Collaborations Les Rencontres de Moriond – QCD and Hadronic Interactions La Thuile, March 17-24, 2007 • Topics: • B  h+h- (charmless) recent results • B  mm search status • B  mm h updates a) e-mail: fabrizio.scuri@pi.infn.it Rare B decays at the Tevatron - Moriond QCD 2007

  2. 1) Charmless B  h+ h’- • a useful tool for probing CKM • sensitive to the New Physics contributions • in the Penguin diagrams • sensitive to New Physics effects via • anomalies in ACP Tree Penguin ? =arg(Vub) 2) Bs  mm SM prediction very suppressed (M.Blanke et.al., JHEP 0610:003,2006) (T.Hurth, hep-ph/0612231v1) Sizable New Physics enhancement predicted in non MFV scenarios, e.g. high tanb SUSY (BSUSY(Bmm) (tanb)6) 3)B  mm h (b  s l+l-) Additional information on the flavor dynamics of FCNC decays from the s-quark and di-lepton system FB asymmetries Why Rare (BR O(10-6) or lower) B Decays are so interesting ?

  3. s(bb) at Tevatron is O(105) larger than production in e+e- colliders at Y(4s) or Z0 energy scale -- all b-hadrons (B+, B0, Bs, Bc, Lb, Sb,……) are produced -- physics program complementary to the B-Factories Fine, but… • The total inelastic x-section is a factor 103 larger than s(bb) • The BRs of rare b-hadron decays are O(10-6) or lower • therefore….. CDF Interesting events must be extracted from a high track multiplicity environment……. Heavy Flavor physics at the Tevatron • Detectors need to have: • Very good tracking and vertex resolution • Wide acceptance and good ID for electrons and muons • Highly selective trigger Rare B decays at the Tevatron - Moriond QCD 2007
