  13. Babar Near Term Plans 2007 (Analyses using 500 fb–1) • Complete D mixing analysis • Use complete dataset through 2007 (K. Flood) • Complete b  s l+ l– analysis including asymmetries • Improvements from NN m ID and reconstruction of several Xs final states, much like in Eichenbaum b  s analysis (K. Flood) • Continue Global analysis of CKM parameters • Add new results from BaBar and Belle (Completion of M. Pierini Work ) • Time dependent CP asymmetries (Pierini - Finish up Summer 07) • Update of B  K K K analyses • Update of B  K 0 analysis • New study of B  K +– analysis • Rare decays Finish B  l+l– analysis • Recoil technique to study difficult rare decays (C. Vuosalo) • Improve the technique to study, e.g., B  K and B  K  DOE Review 5/14-16/07

  14. Babar Long Term Plans > 2008 (Analyses using 800 fb–1) • Measure CKM parameters in rare decays • Continue to probe for deviations from Standard Model • Semi-inclusive b  s l+ l – • Improve ACP and forward-backward asymmetry zero-crossing point • Recoil method • Fully reconstruct one B to reduce backgrounds • Reduced signal statistics compensated by improved systematics • Cleaner samples of inclusive decays of the other B • Access to rare decays with neutrinos, Knn, Ktt DOE Review 5/14-16/07

  15. ILC Polarized Source • Proposal to ILC Accelerator R&D at Universities. DOE Awards FY04 FY05 FY06 of $34.6k/FY • Budget used for X-Ray Analysis, SIMS Analyses and Photoluminescence Hardware. • Group expands effort to include full electron polarized source system. DOE Review 5/14-16/07

  16. Components of Polarized Source R&D • Source Laser R&D • Photocathode Structures • Measurement of Photocathode Spin Relaxation Times: Faraday Rotation (new experiment & setup) DOE Review 5/14-16/07

  17. Polarized Source R&D Program DOE Review 5/14-16/07

  18. DOE Review 5/14-16/07

  19. Cathode Structure R&D DOE Review 5/14-16/07

  20. Faraday Effect Rotation to Measure Spin Relaxation Times • Prepare Pump/Probe Laser Pulses with Variable Probe Delay Time. • Pump with Circularly Polarized Light to Create Polarized Electrons in the Conduction Band. • Probe with Linearly Polarized Light Laser Pulse at Time t wrt Pump. • Measure the Rotation Angle of the Linear Polarization as a Function of time t. The Rotation Angle is Proportional to the Polarization. • A Series of Measurements will give P(t) and thus the Relaxation t. • Obtained a laser with femtosecond pulses to be able to measure picosecond values of t.
