  • BABAR Studies Matter-Antimatter Asymmetry in Τ Lepton Decays
    BABAR studies matter-antimatter asymmetry in τττ lepton decays Humans have wondered about the origin of matter since the dawn of history. Physicists address this age-old question by using particle accelerators to recreate the conditions that existed shortly after the Big Bang. At an accelerator, energy is converted into matter according to Einstein’s famous energy-mass relation, E = mc 2 , which offers an explanation for the origin of matter. However, matter is always created in conjunction with the same amount of antimatter. Therefore, the existence of matter – and no antimatter – in the universe indicates that there must be some difference, or asymmetry, between the properties of matter and antimatter. Since 1999, physicists from the BABAR experiment at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have been studying such asymmetries. Their results have solidified our understanding of the underlying micro-world theory known as the Standard Model. Despite its great success in correctly predicting the results of laboratory experiments, the Standard Model is not the ultimate theory. One indication for this is that the matter-antimatter asymmetry allowed by the Standard Model is about a billion times too small to account for the amount of matter seen in the universe. Therefore, a primary quest in particle physics is to search for hard evidence for “new physics”, evidence that will point the way to the more complete theory beyond the Standard Model. As part of this quest, BABAR physicists also search for cracks in the Standard Model. In particular, they study matter-antimatter asymmetries in processes where the Standard Model predicts that asymmetries should be very small or nonexistent.

  • Constraints from Electric Dipole Moments on Chargino Baryogenesis in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model

The direct constraint on this phase comes from the limit of electric dipole moments ͑EDM’s͒ of various light fermions. To avoid such a constraint, a scheme which assumes that the first two generation sfermions are very heavy is usually evoked to suppress the one-loop EDM contributions. We point out that under such a scheme the most severe constraint may come from a new contribution to the electric dipole moment of the electron, the neutron, or atoms via the chargino sector at the two-loop level. As a result, the allowed parameter space for baryogenesis in the MSSM is severely constrained, independent of the masses of the first two generation sfermions.

  • Reconstruction of Semileptonic K0 Decays at Babar
    Reconstruction of Semileptonic K0 Decays at BaBar Henry Hinnefeld 2010 NSF/REU Program Physics Department, University of Notre Dame Advisor: Dr. John LoSecco Abstract The oscillations observed in a pion composed of a superposition of energy states can provide a valuable tool with which to examine recoiling particles produced along with the pion in a two body decay. By characterizing these oscillation in the D+ ! π+ K0 decay we develop a technique that can be applied to other similar decays. The neutral kaons produced in the D+ ! π+ K0 decay are generated in flavor eigenstates due to their production via the weak force. Kaon flavor eigenstates differ from kaon mass eigenstates so the K0 can be equally represented as a superposition of mass 0 0 eigenstates, labelled KS and KL. Conservation of energy and momentum require that the recoiling π also be in an entangled superposition of energy states. The K0 flavor can be determined by 0 measuring the lepton charge in a KL ! π l ν decay. A central difficulty with this method is the 0 accurate reconstruction of KLs in experimental data without the missing information carried off by the (undetected) neutrino. Using data generated at the Stanford Linear Accelerator (SLAC) and software created as part of the BaBar experiment I developed a set of kinematic, geometric, 0 and statistical filters that extract lists of KL candidates from experimental data. The cuts were first developed by examining simulated Monte Carlo data, and were later refined by examining 0 + − 0 trends in data from the KL ! π π π decay.

  • A Successful Start to Preparations for the Babar Experiment
    In June this year, the first part of new collider A successful called PEP-II was commissioned. It will be used in an experiment to observe a rare effect start to in particle physics that could explain why there appears to be only matter and not antimatter in the Universe. The effect is preparations called CP violation, and the experiment will measure for the first time subtle differences in for the BaBar the way fundamental particles called B mesons and their antiparticles decay. experiment According to theory, particles and their antimatter partners should behave like exact mirror images of each other. However, the B by Professor Mike Green mesons and their antiparticles are predicted Royal Holloway, University of London to break this mirror symmetry by a tiny amount. Extract taken from the PPARC Annual Report 1996-97 The so-called BaBar experiment (so named because the symbol for the anti-B meson is a letter 'B' with a bar across the top, and permission was obtained from the author of Babar the Elephant for the use of his name!) takes advantage of the 3-kilometre-long Stanford Linear Accelerator in California which creates and accelerates beams of electrons and their antiparticles, positrons. The beams are then injected into PEP-II. This consists of two concentric rings, 2 kilometres across, which will store the separate beams of electrons and positrons. In the rings, the beams travel close to the speed of light under the influence of electric and magnetic fields which accelerate, guide and focus the beams. The ring being used to store electrons was already in existence, and that is the one which has just been commissioned.

  • Study of $ S\To D\Nu\Bar {\Nu} $ Rare Hyperon Decays Within the Standard
    Study of s dνν¯ rare hyperon decays in the Standard Model and new physics → Xiao-Hui Hu1 ∗, Zhen-Xing Zhao1 † 1 INPAC, Shanghai Key Laboratory for Particle Physics and Cosmology, MOE Key Laboratory for Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology, School of Physics and Astronomy, Shanghai Jiao-Tong University, Shanghai 200240, P.R. China FCNC processes offer important tools to test the Standard Model (SM), and to search for possible new physics. In this work, we investigate the s → dνν¯ rare hyperon decays in SM and beyond. We 14 11 find that in SM the branching ratios for these rare hyperon decays range from 10− to 10− . When all the errors in the form factors are included, we find that the final branching fractions for most decay modes have an uncertainty of about 5% to 10%. After taking into account the contribution from new physics, the generalized SUSY extension of SM and the minimal 331 model, the decay widths for these channels can be enhanced by a factor of 2 ∼ 7. I. INTRODUCTION The flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) transitions provide a critical test of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) mechanism in the Standard Model (SM), and allow to search for the possible new physics. In SM, FCNC transition s dνν¯ proceeds through Z-penguin and electroweak box diagrams, and thus the decay probablitities are strongly→ suppressed. In this case, a precise study allows to perform very stringent tests of SM and ensures large sensitivity to potential new degrees of freedom. + + 0 A large number of studies have been performed of the K π νν¯ and KL π νν¯ processes, and reviews of these two decays can be found in [1–6].

This analysis uses data collected by the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector from proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy √s =13 TeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.26 fb−1. This search focuses on a R-parity conserving model of Supersymmetry where electroweak decay of SUSY particles results in the lightest supersymmetric particle, two high energy photons, and an electron. The light- est supersymmetric particle would escape the detector, thus resulting in missing transverse energy. No excess of missing energy is observed in the signal region of MET>100 GeV. A limit is set on the SUSY electroweak Chargino-Neutralino production cross section. 3 Contents 1 Introduction 9 1.1 Weakly Interacting Massive Particles . ..... 10 1.2 SUSY ..................................... 12 2 CMS Detector 15 3Data 17 3.1 ParticleFlowandReconstruction . .. 17 3.1.1 ECALClusteringandR9. 17 3.1.2 Conversion Safe Electron Veto . 18 3.1.3 Shower Shape . 19 3.1.4 Isolation .

We find that successful baryogenesis during the first order electroweak phase transition is possible within a phenomenologically viable part of the model parameter space. We discuss several phenomenological consequences of this scenario, namely, predictions for the electric dipole moments of electron and neutron and collider signatures of light charginos and neutralinos.

  • Mass Degeneracy of the Higgsinos
    CERN–TH/95–337 Mass Degeneracy of the Higgsinos Gian F. Giudice1 and Alex Pomarol Theory Division, CERN CH-1211 Geneva 23, Switzerland Abstract The search for charginos and neutralinos at LEP2 can become problematic if these particles are almost mass degenerate with the lightest neutralino. Unfortunately this is the case in the region where these particles are higgsino-like. We show that, in this region, radiative corrections to the higgsino mass splittings can be as large as the tree-level values, if the mixing between the two stop states is large. We also show that the degree of degeneracy of the higgsinos substantially increases if a large phase is present in the higgsino mass term µ. CERN–TH/95–337 December 1995 1On leave of absence from INFN Sezione di Padova, Padua, Italy. The search for charginos (˜χ+) at LEP2 is one of the most promising ways of discovering low-energy supersymmetry. If theχ ˜+ decays into the lightest neutralino (˜χ0) and a virtual W +, it can be discovered at LEP2 (with a L = 500 pb−1) whenever its production cross R section is larger than about 0.1–0.3pbandmχ˜0 is within the range mχ˜0 ∼> 20 GeV and mχ˜+ − mχ˜0 ∼> 5–10 GeV [1]. Therefore, the chargino can be discovered almost up to the LEP2 kinematical limit, unless one of the following three conditions occurs: i) The sneutrino (˜ν) is light and the chargino is mainly gaugino-like. In this case theν ˜ t-channel exchange interferes destructively with the gauge-boson exchange and can reduce the chargino production cross section below the minimum values required for observability, 0.1–0.3 pb.

  • Introduction to Supersymmetry
    Introduction to Supersymmetry Pre-SUSY Summer School Corpus Christi, Texas May 15-18, 2019 Stephen P. Martin Northern Illinois University [email protected] 1 Topics: Why: Motivation for supersymmetry (SUSY) • What: SUSY Lagrangians, SUSY breaking and the Minimal • Supersymmetric Standard Model, superpartner decays Who: Sorry, not covered. • For some more details and a slightly better attempt at proper referencing: A supersymmetry primer, hep-ph/9709356, version 7, January 2016 • TASI 2011 lectures notes: two-component fermion notation and • supersymmetry, arXiv:1205.4076. If you find corrections, please do let me know! 2 Lecture 1: Motivation and Introduction to Supersymmetry Motivation: The Hierarchy Problem • Supermultiplets • Particle content of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model • (MSSM) Need for “soft” breaking of supersymmetry • The Wess-Zumino Model • 3 People have cited many reasons why extensions of the Standard Model might involve supersymmetry (SUSY). Some of them are: A possible cold dark matter particle • A light Higgs boson, M = 125 GeV • h Unification of gauge couplings • Mathematical elegance, beauty • ⋆ “What does that even mean? No such thing!” – Some modern pundits ⋆ “We beg to differ.” – Einstein, Dirac, . However, for me, the single compelling reason is: The Hierarchy Problem • 4 An analogy: Coulomb self-energy correction to the electron’s mass A point-like electron would have an infinite classical electrostatic energy. Instead, suppose the electron is a solid sphere of uniform charge density and radius R. An undergraduate problem gives: 3e2 ∆ECoulomb = 20πǫ0R 2 Interpreting this as a correction ∆me = ∆ECoulomb/c to the electron mass: 15 0.86 10− meters m = m + (1 MeV/c2) × .
