Lecture 5

Mixing & CP Violation (2 of 3)

Today we walk through the formalism in more detail, and then focus on CP violation

Page 2: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Nomenclature(These notational conventions are different from Jeff Richman’s paper)

• We refer to the decays of a “pure” flavor state:

• The time evolution of a state that was a “pure” flavor state at t=0:€

f B0 = A

f B0 = A

fCP B0 = A

fCP B0 = A

f B0 = 0

f B0 = 0

f H B0 = f B0(t)

f H B0 = f B0(t)

f H B0 = f B0(t)

f H B0 = f B0(t)

Unmixed Mixed

fCP H B0 = fCP B0(t)

fCP H B0 = fCP B0(t)

Can’t tell because fis not flavor specific

Page 3: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Remember from last weekWe have: mass eigenstates = BH and BL

flavor eigenstates = B0 and B0

CP eigenstates = B+ and B-

Define CP eigenstates:

=>

Where we have used that B0 is a pseudoscalar meson.

Unmixed:

|q/p| =1 unless there is CP violation in mixing itself.

|A| = |A| unless there is CP violation in the decay.

We will discuss both of these in more detail later!

Assuming no CP violation in mixing or decay.

Will explain when this is a reasonable assumption later.

Now assume that you did not tag the flavor at production,and there is no CP violation in mixing or decay, i.e. |q/p|=1 and |A| = |A|

All you see is the sum of two exponentials for the two lifetimes.

Summary so far• We discussed the basic formalism for matter <-> antimatter

oscillations.• We showed how this is intricately related to:

– Mass difference of the mass eigenstates– Lifetime difference of the mass eigenstates– CP violation in the decay amplitude– CP violation in the mixing amplitude

• We discussed how the formalism simplifies in the B-meson system due to natures choice of M12 and Γ12 .

• We showed how one can measure cosmt .

CKM Convention(same as Richman’s paper)

• Down type quark -> up type quark = Vud

• Anti-down -> anti-up = Vud*

• Up type quark -> down type quark = Vud*

• Anti-up -> anti-down = Vud

• This means for mixing:

Top 6 constraints are triangles in complex plane.

Careful Look at CKM Triangles

Top quark too heavy to produce bound states.Most favorable aspect ratio is found in Bd triangle.

Another Useful CKM

As we will see on Tuesday, this is a useful way of writing the CKM matrix because it involves only parameters that canbe measured via tree-level processes.

To the extend that new physics may show up primarily in loops,this way of looking at CKM is thus “new physics free”.

Reminder of CP Asymmetry Basics

• To have a CP asymmetry you need three incredients:– Two paths to reach the same fnal state.– The two paths differ in CP violating phase.– The two paths differ in CP conserving phase.

• Simplest Example:

A + Be iδ e iφ CP ⏐ → ⏐ A + Be iδ e−iφ

A + Be iδ e iφ 2− A + Be iδ e−iφ 2

A + Be iδ e iφ 2+ A + Be iδ e−iφ 2 =

2ABsinδ sinφ

A2 + B2 + 2ABcosδ cosφ

Page 16: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Three Types of CP Violation• Direct = CP violation in the decay:

• CP violation in mixing:

• CP violation in interference of mixing and decay.

Example Direct CP Violation

“Tree” Diagram

“Penguin” Diagram

Both can lead to the same final state,And have different weak & strong phases.

Page 18: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Breaking CP is easy

Add complex coupling to Lagrangian.Allow 2 or more channelsAdd CP symm. Phase, e.g. via dynamics.

=P + Te−i(δ −γ ) − P + Te−i(δ +γ )

P + Te−i(δ −γ ) + P + Te−i(δ +γ )

T,P are real numbers.

The rest is simple algebra.

CP Violation in Mixing

• Pick decay for which there is only one diagram, e.g. semileptonic decay.

Verifying the algebra, incl. the sign, is part of HW.

It’s your homework assignment to sort out algebra and sign.I was deliberately careless here!Make sure you are completely clear how you define Γ !!!

Aside on rephasing Invariance

• Recall that we are allowed to multiply quark fields with arbitrary phases.

• This is referred to as “rephasing”, and directly affects the CKM matrix convention as follows:

=

All physical observables must depend on combinations of CKM matrix elements where a quark subscript shows up as part of a V and a V* .

Page 23: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Examples:

• Decay rate if the process is dominated by one diagram:

• |A|2 Vcb Vud* Vcb

* Vud

• Mixing:

Neither of M12 nor Γ12 is rephasing invariant by themselves.However, the product M12 Γ12

* is rephasing invariant.

;

Vtb Vts* Vcb

* Vcs = rephasing invariant

Page 24: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

• In principle, these three measurements allow extraction of all the relevant parameters.

• In practice, Γ12 for both Bd and Bs is too small to be easily measurable.

• Extraction of the phase involved is thus not easily possible.

• Thankfully, there’s another way of determining “the phase of mixing”.

Page 25: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Interference of Mixing and Decay

J/psi Ks is a CP eigenstate.

This allows measurement ofthe relative phase of A and q/p.

Flavor tag B at production.Measure rate as a function of proper time betweenproduction and decay.

Page 26: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Simplifying Assumptions and their Justification

• There is no direct CP violation• b->c cbar s tree diagram dominates• Even if there was a penguin contribution, it would have

(close to) the same phase: Arg(VtbVts*) ~ Arg(VcbVcs*)

• Lifetime difference in Bd system is vanishingly small -> effects due to Γ12 can be ignored.

• Top dominates the box diagram.– See HW.

Page 27: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Let’s look at this in some detail!

J/psi Ks must be P-wave => overall CP of the final state = -1

Page 28: Physics 222 UCSD/225b UCSB

Some comments are in order here:

The extra CKM matrix elements enter because of Kaon mixing. We produce s dbar or sbar d and observe Ks .

They are crucial to guarantee rephasing invariant observable: Vtb

Putting the pieces together

Note: I do not use the same sign conventions as Jeff Richman !!!

= −sin 2Arg Vtd( )( )sinΔmt

ACP (t) = sin2β sinΔmt

Accordingly, I get the opposite sign for ACP .

In HW, you are asked to do this yourself. Make sure you state clearly how you define ACP !!!
