Why Look Beyond the SM ?

Where Should We Look ?Where Should We Look ?
Start with the BIG Questions1. Why is there Mass ? EW Symmetry Breaking
2. Antimatter ? Weak vs Mass States & CPV
3. What about Matter ? understanding QCD
Ask Them in the Right Way Look in New Places higher E, sparse meas More Precision new techniques
EW Symmetry Breaking ! turns out to be related to question 2) as well

Elusive Higgs Boson Discovered
By THE FREE ASSOCIATION PRESS
The scientific community was rocked yesterday when the ATLAS collaboration announced the discovery of the long-sought Higgs boson in a press conference at CERN. “This is an historic occasion, and it’s all because of the work of the Columbia University group”, said Peter Higgs, the physicist after whom the particle is named…

H.Evans Columbia Colloquium: 18-Oct-04 14
Why is Flavor Promising (2)Why is Flavor Promising (2) CKM Phase as only Quark-Sector CPV is ODD
most Models beyond SM lots of new CPV phases 43 in generic SUSY models !
FCNCs are also generally large Beyond the SM
Flavor Physics is Already a Major Constraint on Physics Beyond SM Note that the 3rd Family is the least well constrained
What’s Left Then? (some examples) Minimal Flavor Violation GMSB, univ.E.D.
only source of FV is in Yukawa couplings New Sources of CPV R.-S. w/ bulk q’s
FV parts have to be suppressed by e.g. heavy mass scales
Both can Modified Coupling Strengths enhanced rare decays
General Scheme different models predict different relationships b/w observables

ConclusionsConclusions
B-Hadrons provide a Sensitive Probe of EW Symmetry Breaking & Physics Beyond the SM allow classes of models to be favored/ruled out complementary to direct searches for new particles
The DØ Experiment is Poised to make Major Contributions in the next few years QCD: lifetimes, spectroscopy, production… CKM: Bs Mixing, s, sin 2, sin 2s…
Rare: Bs+-, B K*+-
Future Experiments will keep b’s at the Vertex for many years to come !

Beauty as a ProbeBeauty as a Probe
B-Physics is a Good Place to Probe EW Sym. Breaking measurable unitarity triangle QCD corrections to predictions small
1. Look for Modifications to Couplings Rare Decays Different EW Sym. Breaking Struct. Different Couplings Most Interesting Channels = Rare or Zero in SM
2. Check for NP in Consistency of CKM Picture CPV & Mixing Need meas’s of each parameter in several modes Use SM loop level processes (NP effects can compete here) Differences in param’s measured by proc’s w/ diff. flavor struct.
But Wait, There’s More – QCD ! b-production, spectroscopy, lifetimes…
