  9. Revisited Analysis using  Data: Belle + new IB Relative comparison of  and ee spectral functions ( green band) arXiv:0906-5443 MD et al. slope… KLOE CMD-2, SND Global test of spectral functions: prediction of  BR using ee data  larger disagreement with KLOE Oxford 27/10/2009

  10. Goals of the BaBar Analysis • Measure [e+ e +  ()] with high accuracy for vacuum polarization calculations, using the ISR method e+ e +   () •  channel contributes 73% of ahad • Dominant uncertainty also from  • Also important to increase precision on (MZ2) (EW tests, ILC) • Present systematic precision of ee experiments CMD-2 0.8% SND 1.5% in agreement KLOE (ISR from 1.02 GeV) 2005 1.3% some deviation in shape 2008 0.9% better agreement • Big advantage of ISR: all mass spectrum covered at once, from threshold to 3 GeV, with same detector and analysis • Measure simultaneously +   () and +   () • Compare to spectral functions from previous e+ e data and  decays  aim for a measurement with <1% accuracy (syst. errors at per mil level) great interest to clarify the situation as magnitude of possible discrepancy with SM is of the order of SUSY contributions with masses of a few 100 GeV Oxford 27/10/2009

  11. The Relevant Processes e+ e +   () and +   () measured simultaneously ISR FSR LO FSR negligible for pp at s(10.6 GeV)2 ISR + add. ISR ISR + add. FSR Oxford 27/10/2009

  12. PEP-II is an asymmetric e+ecollider operating at CM energy of (4S). Integrated luminosity = 531 fb-1 BaBar / PEP II BaBar EMC: • 6580 CsI(Tl) crystals, resolution ~1-2 % high E. BaBar IFR: • resistive plate chambers • BaBar DIRC • particle ID up to 4-5 GeV/c • BaBar SVT and DCH • precision tracking Oxford 27/10/2009

  13. Analysis Steps 232 fb-1 (U(4S) on-peak & off peak) • Measure ratio of ppg(g) to mmg(g) cross sections to cancel ee luminosity, additional ISR, vacuum polarization,ISR photon efficiency (otherwise 1-2% syst.) • ISR photon at large angle in EMC + 2 tracks • Geometrical acceptance (using Monte Carlo simulation) • All efficiencies measured on data (data/MC corrections) • Triggers (L1 hardware, L3 software), background-filter efficiencies • Tracking efficiency • Particle ID matrix (ID and mis-ID efficiencies):   K • Kinematic fitting reduce non 2-body backgrounds 2 cut efficiency: additional radiation (ISR, FSR), secondary interactions • Unfolding of mass spectra • Consistency checks for  (QED test, ISR luminosity) and  • Unblinding R  partial preliminary results (Tau08, Sept. 2008) • Additional studies and checks • Final results on  cross section and calculation of dispersion integral Oxford 27/10/2009

  14. MC Generators • Acceptance and efficiencies determined initially from simulation, with data/MC corrections applied • Large simulated samples, typically 10  data, using AfkQed generator • AfkQed: lowest-order (LO) QED with additional radiation: ISR with structure function method,  assumed collinear to the beams and with limited energy FSR using PHOTOS • Phokhara 4.0: (almost) exact second-order QED matrix element, limited to NLO • Studies comparing Phokhara and AfkQed at 4-vector level with fast simulation • QED test with    () cross section requires reliable NLO generator •   () cross section obtained through  /  ratio, rather insensitive to detailed description of radiation in MC Oxford 27/10/2009

  15. Particle-related Efficiency Measurements tag particle (track, ID) γISR candidate (p, , φ) • benefit from pair production for tracking and particle ID • kinematically constrained events • efficiency automatically averaged over running periods • measurement in the same environment as for physics, in fact same events! • applied to particle ID with p/K/m samples, tracking, study of secondary interactions… • assumes that efficiencies of the 2 particles are uncorrelated • in practice not true  study of 2-particle overlap in the detector (trigger,tracking, EMC, IFR) required a large effort to reach per mil accuracies Oxford 27/10/2009

  17. Kinematic Fitting • Two kinematic fits to X X ISR add (ISR photon defined as highest energy) Add. ISR fit: add assumed along beams Add. ‘FSR’ if add detected • First analysis to measure cross section with additional photons (NLO) • Loose 2 cut (outside BG region in plot) for  and  in central  region • Tight 2 cut (ln(2+1)<3) for  in  tail region • q q and multi-hadronic ISR background from MC samples + normalization from data using signals from 0ISR (qq), and  and  (0) ppg(g) Oxford 27/10/2009

  18. QED Test with mmg sample • absolute comparison of mm mass spectra in data and in simulation • simulation corrected for data/MC efficiencies • AfkQed corrected for incomplete NLO using Phokhara • strong test (ISR probability drops out for ) BaBar (0.2  3 GeV) BaBar ee luminosity ISR  efficiency 3.4 syst. trig/track/PID 4.0 Oxford 27/10/2009

  19. Obtaining the () cross section Acceptance from MC + data/MC corrections Unfolded spectrum Effective ISR luminosity from () analysis (similar equation + QED)  mass spectrum unfolded (Malaescu arXiv:0907-3791) for detector response Additional ISR almost cancels in the procedure (() / () ratio) Correction (2.5 1.0) 103   cross section does not rely on accurate description of NLO in the MC generator ISR luminosity from  in 50-MeV energy intervals (small compared to variation of efficiency corrections) Oxford 27/10/2009

  30. Other hadronic contributions from MD-Eidelman-Hoecker-Zhang (2006)  another large long-standing discrepancy in the +  20 channel ! Oxford 27/10/2009

  31. The Problematic 2 20 Contribution preliminary BaBar data: A. Petzold, EPS-HEP (2007) ee data used now (CMD2 discarded) only statistical errors old contribution 16.8  1.3 update 17.6  1.7 probably still underestimated (BaBar)  21.4  1.4 Oxford 27/10/2009

  33. Where are we? • including BaBar 2 results in the e+e combination + estimate of hadronic • LBL contribution (Prades-de Rafael-Vainhstein, 2009) yields • aSM[e+e] = (11 659 183.4 4.1 2.6 0.2) 1010 • HVP LBL EW (4.9) • E-821 updated result 11 659 208.9 6.3 • deviation (ee) 25.5  8.0 • (3.2 ) • updated  analysis • +Belle +revisited IB corrections • deviation () 15.7  8.2 • (1.9 ) Oxford 27/10/2009

  34. Discussion • BaBar 2 data complete and the most accurate, but expected precision • improvement on the average not reached because of discrepancy with KLOE • however, previous /ee disagreement strongly reduced • 2.9 (2006)  2.4 ( update)  1.5 (including BaBar) • a range of values for the deviation from the SM can be obtained, depending • on the 2 data used: • BaBar 2.4 • all ee 3.2 • all ee BaBar 3.7 • all ee KLOE 2.9 •  1.9 • all approaches yield a deviation, but SM test limited by systematic effects not • accounted for in the experimental analyses (ee) and/or the corrections to  data • at the moment some evidence for a deviation (24), but not sufficient to establish • a contribution from new physics Oxford 27/10/2009

  35. Perspectives • first priority is a clarification of the BaBar/KLOE discrepancy: • - origin of the ‘slope’ (was very pronounced with the 2004 KLOE results, • reduced now with the 2008 results) • - normalization difference on  peak (most direct effect on a) • - Novosibirsk results in-between, closer to BaBar • - slope also seen in KLOE/ comparison; BaBar agrees with  • further checks of the KLOE results are possible: as method is based on MC • simulation for ISR and additional ISR/ISR probabilities  long-awaited test • with  analysis • contribution from multi-hadronic channels will continue to be updated with • more results forthcoming from BaBar, particularly 2 20 • more ee data expected from VEPP-2000 in Novosibirsk • experimental error of E-821 direct a measurement is a limitation, already now •  new proposal submitted to Fermilab to improve accuracy by a factor 4 •  project at JPARC Oxford 27/10/2009
