  17. sin2b From bccsis Now a Precision Measurement • sin2b from these final states belongs to a special class of definitive • measurements in particle physics • Theoretical uncertainties << 1%, so its interpretation is clear • data-driven measurement, statistics limited, with very little dependence on simulation or theoretical assumptions. UCSD group played leading role in defining sin2 and similar time-dependent CPV measurement in BaBar, analyses(based on our method) now gets updated routinely following each major growth in data sample

  18. Prize For Best PhD Dissertation At a US University or Laboratory Citation: "For his role in the development of the tools needed for the analysis of B factory data, including the tFIT program, a unique and comprehensive fitting framework for time-dependent analyses. The tools he developed played a key role in the observation of CP violation in the B system by the BaBar collaboration. These tools will be essential to the ongoing program of work as the B factories continue to probe the origins of CP violation."

  47. Future Activities of UCSD-BaBar Group • Since BaBar’s beginning, UCSD PIs, post-docs and students have led BaBar’s productivity • MacFarlane’s stated move to SLAC in Jan 2006 diminishes UCSD’s current high profile role in BaBar management and participation in BaBar beyond 2008 • Does not significantly alter UCSD’s ability on near term (2008) physics objectives which are based on our long term investments in : • Precise measurement of Vub from fully reconstructed B sample using recoil side technique pioneered by UCSD • Search for bu amplitude in B0 D0K0 family of decays in pursuit of angle  • CPV in bs Penguin decays as clean barometer of NP • Each of these measurements have a well defined & vetted analysis procedure in place (analysis method published already) but are each currently STATISTICS limited. • In 2006, plan to shrink the UCSD-BaBar group to • 50% of VS (other 50% directed to CMS) ; • One full time post-doc concentrating on physics analyses above • retain possibility of one graduate student doing BaBar analysis and then moving to CMS DAQ in ~2008 • Yet deliver on the physics goals stated above assuming projected luminosity profile

  48. Local Organizers Ben Grinstein, Aneesh Manohar, Frank Wuerthwein, VS Thank You !
