  • Direct CP Violation in K 0 → Ππ
    IFIC/17-56, FTUV/17-1218 Direct CP violation in K0 ! ππ: Standard Model Status Hector Gisbert and Antonio Pich Departament de F´ısicaTe`orica,IFIC, Universitat de Val`encia{ CSIC Apt. Correus 22085, E-46071 Val`encia,Spain Abstract In 1988 the NA31 experiment presented the first evidence of direct CP violation in the K0 ! ππ decay amplitudes. A clear signal with a 7:2 σ statistical significance was later established with the full data samples from the NA31, E731, NA48 and KTeV experiments, confirming that CP violation is associated with a ∆S = 1 quark transition, as predicted by the Standard Model. However, the theoretical prediction for the measured ratio "0=" has been a subject of strong controversy along the years. Although the underlying physics was already clarified in 2001, the recent release of improved lattice data has revived again the theoretical debate. We review the current status, discussing in detail the different ingredients that enter into the calculation of this observable and the reasons why seemingly contradictory predictions were obtained in the past by several groups. An update of the Standard Model prediction is presented and the prospects for future improvements are analysed. Taking into account all known short-distance and long-distance contributions, one obtains Re ("0=") = (15 ± 7) · 10−4, in good agreement with the experimental measurement. arXiv:1712.06147v1 [hep-ph] 17 Dec 2017 Contents Page 1 Historical prelude 2 2 Isospin decomposition of the K ! ππ amplitudes 5 3 Short-distance contributions 7 4 Hadronic matrix elements 10 5 Effective field theory description 12 5.1 Chiral perturbation theory .

For the NA31 collaboration : CERN, Edinburgh, Mainz, Orsay, Pisa and Siegen Abstract The NA31 experiment has published the first evidence for direct CP violation by measuring a non-zero value for the X(e'/e) parameter. Further data-taking periods took place in 1988 and 1989, producing two datasets with statistics comparable to the original one. This paper presents the final result of the anal- ysis of tbe 1988 dataset together with a preliminary result of the analysis of the 1989 one. The combined, preliminary, measurement of NA31 is R(e'/e) = (2.3 ± 0.7 ) 10~3, thus confirming our initial measurement and also in agree- ment with the standard model. Introduction Since its discovery, 28 years ago, the non respect of the discrete CP symetry, so-called "CP violation", has up to now been observed only in neutral Kaon decays.

  • Results on Direct CP Violation from NA48 1 Introduction
    Results on Direct CP Violation from NA48 Giles Barr NA48 Collaboration CERN, Geneva, Switzerland 1 Introduction A long-standing question in high energy physics has been the origin of the phe- nomenon of CP violation. CP violation was first observed in the decay KL → + − 0 0 π π [1]. Effects have subsequently been found in KL → π π [2], the charge ± ∓ ± ∓ + − asymmetry of KL → e π ν (Ke3) [3] and KL → µ π ν (Kµ3) [4], KL → π π γ [5] and most recently in KL → ππee [6]. All of these effects can be explained by applying a single CP violating effect in the mixing between K0 and K0 which pro- ceeds through the box Feynman diagram and are characterized by the parameter ε. A second form of CP violation with different characteristics can also be in- vestigated in the decay of the neutral K-mesons. The CP =−1 kaon state (the K2) can decay directly into a 2π final state without first mixing into a kaon with CP =+1. This effect, referred to as direct CP violation, may proceed by the pen- guin Feynman diagram, and is characterized by the parameter ε. The measured quantity is the double ratio of the decay widths, which, in the NA48 experiment is equivalent to the double ratio of four event-counts Γ (K → π 0π 0)/ Γ (K → π 0π 0) R ≡ L S + − + − Γ (KL → π π )/ Γ (KS → π π ) N(K → π 0π 0)/ N(K → π 0π 0) = L S (1) + − + − N(KL → π π )/ N(KS → π π ) 1 − 6Re(ε/ε).

Peskin1 Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Stanford University, Stanford, California 94309 USA ABSTRACT This is the proceedings article for the concluding lecture of the 1999 High En- ergy Physics Conference of the European Physical Society. In this article, I review a number of topics that were highlighted at the meeting and have more general importance in high energy physics. The major topics discussed are (1) precision electroweak physics, (2) CP violation, (3) new directions in QCD, (4) supersym- metry spectroscopy, and (5) the experimental physics of extra dimensions. arXiv:hep-ph/0002041v2 31 May 2000 invited lecture presented at the International Europhysics Conference on High-Energy Physics July 15-21, 1999, Tampere, Finland 1Work supported by the Department of Energy, contract DE–AC03–76SF00515. 1 Introduction In this theoretical summary lecture at the High Energy Physics 99 conference of the Eu- ropean Physical Society, I am charged to review some of the new conceptual developments presented at this conference. At the same time, I would like to review more generally the progress of high-energy physics over the past year, and to highlight areas in which our basic understanding has been affected by the new developments. There is no space here for a sta- tus report on the whole field. But I would like to give extended discussion to five areas that I think have special importance this year. These are (1) precision electroweak physics, which celebrates its tenth anniversary this summer; (2) CP violation, which entered a new era this summer with the inauguration of the SLAC and KEK B-factories; (3) QCD, which now branches into new lines of investigation; and two rapidly developing topics from physics be- yond the Standard Model, (4) supersymmetry spectroscopy and (5) the experimental study of extra dimensions.

  • Research Overview of Ian Shipsey 2017 Shipsey's Scientific Career Has Been Based on the Conviction That World-Class Scienc
    Research Overview of Ian Shipsey 2017 Shipsey’s scientific career has been based on the conviction that world-class science can best be performed by the development of innovative state-of-the-art instrumentation. Shipsey is distinguished for his elucidation of the physics of heavy quarks, particularly charm, as leader of the CLEO/CLEO-c collaborations at Cornell where he made the most precise measurement of four of the nine quark couplings in nature, and for his outstanding development of charged-particle tracking technology. He was a pioneer of new gaseous tracking detectors and a leader in constructing silicon detectors for CLEO and CMS at LHC. A leading member of CMS, he made the first measurement of b quark production at LHC, observed upsilon suppression in heavy-ion collisions, and observed a long-sought rare b-quark bound state process. Since moving to Oxford to head the Particle Physics Sub- Department, he has joined ATLAS. He is taking a leading role in developing new silicon detectors for both ATLAS and for astronomical applications, specifically for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) project, and in ATLAS data analysis. Shipsey’s research can be divided into the following major activities: I. Heavy quark physics with the CLEO-c & CLEO at Cornell (1986-2012). Quarks are fundamental particles that exist in bound states (mesons and baryons) held together by the strong force. The heavier varieties of quark, such as the beauty (b) quark, disintegrate via the weak force to produce lighter particles at rates constrained, but not determined, by the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics.

  • How Penguins Started To
    TPI-MINN-99/30, HEP-TH-1804 HOW PENGUINS STARTED TO FLY The 1999 Sakurai Prize Lecture a ARKADY VAINSHTEIN Theoretical Physics Institute, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455 A mechanism explaining a strong enhancement of nonleptonic weak decays was suggested in 1975, later to be dubbed the penguin. This mechanism extends Wil- son’s ideas about the operator product expansion at short distances and reveals an intricate interplay of subtle features of the theory such as heavy quark masses in Glashow-Iliopoulos-Maini cancellation, light quarks shaping the chiral properties of QCD, etc. The penguins have subsequently evolved to play a role in a variety of fields in present-day particle phenomenology. I will describe the history of this idea and review its subsequent development. The recent measurement of direct CP violation in K decays gives a new confirmation of the penguin mechanism. 1 History of the idea It was an exciting period, with Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) emerging as the theory of strong interactions, when three of us – Valya Zakharov, Misha Shifman and I – started in 1973 to work on QCD effects in weak processes. The most dramatic signature of strong interactions in these processes is the so called ∆I =1/2 rule in nonleptonic weak decays of strange particles. Let me remind you what this rule means by presenting the experimental value for the ratio of the widths of K π+π− and K+ π+π0 decays S → → + − Γ(KS π π ) arXiv:hep-ph/9906263v1 5 Jun 1999 → = 450 . (1) Γ(K+ π+π0) → + − The isotopic spin I of hadronic states is changed by 1/2 in the KS π π weak transition and by 3/2 in K+ π+π0, so the ∆I = 1/2 dominance→ is evident.

  • CP Violation in Kaon Decays (II)
    CP Violation in Kaon Decays (II) Taku Yamanaka, Osaka University To appear in the proceedings of the 50 years of CP violation conference, 10 { 11 July, 2014, held at Queen Mary University of London, UK. 1 Introduction Major progress has been made in kaon physics in the past 50 years. The number of observed + − KL π π events has increased by 6 orders of magnitude, and the observed CP violation ! was experimentally proven to be caused by a complex phase in the CKM matrix. This mechanism is now a fundamental piece of the standard model. Recent kaon experiments are now even searching for new physics beyond the standard model with K πνν decays. ! The branching ratios of K πνν decays are 7{8 orders of magnitude smaller than the !+ − 0 0 branching ratio of KL π π , and CP -violating KL π π decay is now a major 0! ! background for KL π νν experiments. ! This paper reviews the progress of kaon experiments in the US and Japan as requested by the conference organizer, and how the 6{7 orders of magnitude improvements were possible in the past 50 years.1 2 Quest for 0/ + − Soon after the discovery of CP violation [1], the KL π π decay was explained to be ! caused by an admixture of a CP -even component in the KL [2]: KL Kodd + Keven ; (1) j i ∼ j i j i where this CP -even component was decaying to a CP -even π+π− state. This admixture is introduced by a complex phase in the K0 K0 mixing.

  • Waste Minimization
    FN EE RW MS I FERMILAB AU.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY LABORATORY New Matter-Antimatter Asymmetry Established 2 Photo by Reidar Hahn Volume 22 Friday, March 19, INSIDE: 1999 Number 6 6 Homecoming for Witherell f 9 Profile: Janet Conrad 10 Waste Minimization 12 DOEÕs New Office Manager 13 The Talk of the Lab NEW Matter- Antimatter by Judy Jackson Nature, ever chary of her secrets, is seldom more reticent than on the subject of antimatter. We creatures of matter inhabit a world apparently fashioned only of matter, yet we do not know why. Using particle accelerators, we can create the antimatter counterparts of matterÕs leptons and quarks, but when we study these particles of antimatter, we find that instead of behaving like mirror reflections of their material cousins, they can follow rules of their own. Today, although antimatter remains one of the great mysteries of physics, it is slightly less mysterious than it was a month ago. Years of careful experiments by physicists at CERN and Fermilab have at last produced a significant advance in the understanding of the difference between the behavior of matter and antimatter. Moreover, physicists from FermilabÕs KTeV experiment said they were ÒshockedÓ at the size of a long-sought result they reported to a standing-room-only audience at a seminar at Fermilab on February 24. Indeed, there was an audible gasp from the audience of physicists when University of Chicago graduate student Peter Shawhan gave KTeVÕs observed value for a phenomenon called Òdirect CP violation.Ó ÒOur result,Ó Shawhan said, Òis that epsilon prime over epsilon equals 28 plus or minus 4.1 times 10-4.Ó KTeV physicists may have been surprised, but CERN physicists in experiment NA31 were elated.
