2 B-mesons are produced in a boosted frame • tis measured from vertex positions B-mesons are entangled: flavor of B1 at time t2 is determined by B2 decay Different plots
2 B-mesons are produced in a boosted frame • tis measured from vertex positions + wrong tagging + detector resolution B-mesons are entangled: flavor of B1 at time t2 is determined by B2 decay Different plots
Enormous amount of data from the B-factories! ~ 1.4 Billion 791/fb (March 25) ~ 1364/fb ! 557/fb (April 7)
Putting all the results together. • It is sin2f which currently constraints the allowed region the most. • The picture corresponds remarkably well with the SM predictions. 1 As we measure sin2f, there is a p-2f vs 2f ambiguity. 1 1 1
