Sensitivity 10-4, SM PREDICTION 10-3. • Search for direct CPV in CFD and/or DCSD, where SM PREDICTS NO CPV • Mixing exploiting coherence, unique feature of threshold production. Cannot study mixing in time evolution of rates, but only in integrated rates. In most channels, DCSD concurrent process does not exist thanks to Bose-Einstein statistics (coherent C=-1 quantum state).

  16. In plain words… • SM predicts CPV at the 10-3 level in SCSD  observation would be a *** result • SM predicts ZERO CPV in CFD and DCSD  observation of CPV in those decays is a ***** discovery of New Physics SB - Flavour physics at tau-charm Factories

  17. Search for CP violation via Dalitz plot analysis of Singly-Cabibbo-suppressed Decays • Use full decay info, not only BR  must determine amplitude coefficients and phases • Final state results from the interference of all intermediate states • Differences between amplitude and/or phases patterns in a Dalitz analysis betw conjugate states (i.e., D+ vs D-), would be evidence of CP violation • (ref.

QUESTIONS, AND MY VERY FEW ANSWERS • Physics • Is the tcF a significant help to disentangle among non-SM models after the discovery of SUSY ? • Are the SM measurements significant in the field of b and c physics ? • Is the SM programme of a tcF strong enough to allow success even is SUSY is not discovered at LHC ? • Detector • must be all-purpose detector ! • Can we start design ? • Impact on Frascati infrastructure ? VERY BIG, INTERNATIONAL ENTERPRISE • Cost ? • Machine • Impact on Frascati infrastructure ? VERY BIG, INTERNATIONAL ENTERPRISE • symmetric/asymmetric ? • Fits DAFNE building ? NO • Cost 100MEuro ? MORE • Competition • Is a 2011 Frascati tcF going to be competitive and timely wrt CLEO-c and BES ? • Is a tcF really necessary after BABAR and, expecially, BELLE/SBELLE ? • Sociology • Is the Frascati community interested in working hard on a onsite world-class project ? YES ! • Is the whole INFN community interested ? • Is the world community interested ? • This is a Big Science project, Isn’t Big Science HEP over ? SB - Flavour physics at tau-charm Factories

  34. CONCLUSIONS • Flavour physics is necessary in the LHC era if “Beyond the SM • Physics” is discovered • The Physics programme at a tau-C factory is very large • and robust: • BSM: CPV, Mixing, Rare decays, tau rare decays • SM: absolute branching ratios, meson decay constants, • CKM elements from semileptonic decays, charmonium • spectroscopy • with some items unique or superior wrt B-factories • (underlined above). Is this uniqueness sufficient to justify it ? • Machine and detector are likely to be costly and challenging, • expertise does exist in Frascati but has to be an international • enterprise. • Timing is the critical issue against competition SB - Flavour physics at tau-charm Factories
