Constraining the CKM matrix

Precise measurement of Vtd • properly constrain the CKM matrix• yield info on strength of CP-violation

Vtd can be measured via• rare kaon decay • mixing in the B system

Neutral B meson transition from particle to anti-particle state, and vice-versa Weak eigenstates mass eigenstatesCaused by higher order flavor changing weak interactions: mq= m(Bo

Mixing parameters xq= mq/q and yq= q/ q where q=d,s

First oscillations observed at ARGUS (’87) in the Bd system

signaled a large top quark mass (later verified by CDF and DØ)

What is mixing ?

consider ratio from Lattice QCD

1005.0507.0 psmd

md has been precisely measured: the world average is

a direct measurement of ms + md(current value) + Vts(relatively well known) Vtd

Large production cross-sectionAll B species, including Bs, Bc, b

Rich B Physics program at DØ benefits from :• Large muon acceptance: || < 2• Forward tracking coverage: || < 1.7 (tracking), || < 3 (silicon)• Robust muon trigger

A typical oscillation analysis involves:

– Selection of final states suitable for the study

• Tagging the meson flavor at decay time (final state)

• Tagging the meson flavor at production time (initial state)

– Proper time reconstruction for each meson candidate

Essential ingredients of a mixing analysis

Bs mixing studies at DØ: XDlB SS

The Tevatron B-factory and the new DØ

Bs oscillates at least 30 times faster than B0 ! a Bs mixing measurement is extremely challenging.

We think we understand the mixing of B’s… A deviation from this simple diagram is a deviation from the Standard Model (New Physics)
