W New Physics in Loop Decays? • FCNC Amplitude in SM 3-6 QCD penguin 7-10 EW penguin Dominant terms double-CKM and QCD-loop suppressed Decay rates small in Standard Model: <7 10-5 • Heavy non-SM particles can appear in loops • - large contribution possible, ~O(1) • - in general not CP-conserving • Study CPV in penguins: • - probe for new CP-violating phases SLAC DOE Review, Jun 7 2006
Indirect CPV (beta) Tree decay, BF~10-3 Penguin decay, BF~10-5 Both have same CP asymmetry parameter 2 Im[l] = sin2b Test this prediction! SLAC DOE Review, Jun 7 2006
Standard Model or Beyond? All penguins 0.50 ± 0.06 (3s difference!) New Physics? This could be the greatest discovery of the century. Depending, of course, on how far down it goes. SLAC DOE Review, Jun 7 2006

Other Progress in Penguins • Improvements of BABAR analyses (using 230 M BB pairs): • Add submodes of existing channels: • KS->p+p- is only 34% of all K0 decays • Add KL: h’KL, KKKL • Add KS->p0p0: KSKSKS • 2) Add channels with high background: • - p0p0KS, rKS - Stat. power from additional modes alone: s(sin2b)stat ~ 0.16 • - Total penguin average for BABAR: s(sin2b) ~ 0.09 SLAC DOE Review, Jun 7 2006

Summary and Plans • All channels will be updated with 2006 dataset • BaBar error on sin2b(h’K0) < 0.1 • BaBar+Belle combined penguin error ~0.04 • SLAC contribution: • KKKS KS→p+p-(Dujmic), KS→p0p0(Thompson,Roodman) • rKS, f0KS -> p+p-KS (Graham) • fKS, f->3p (Suzuki) • p0p0KS (Allen, Roodman): • Kp: (Allen, Roodman), • Dalitz plot: K+KSKS, K+K+K- (Thompson,Dujmic,Roodman) • conveners of physics working group (Dujmic,Graham) beta Direct CPV SLAC DOE Review, Jun 7 2006
