Fundamental Questions in Flavor Physics
Are there new sources of CP violation?
Experiments: bs CPV, compare CPV angles from tree and loops
Are there new operators with quarks enhanced by
New Physics ?
Experiments: AFB(BK*l l), BK  rates and asymmetries
Are there right-handed currents ?
Experiments: bs  CPV, BV V triple-product asymmetries
Are there new flavor changing neutral currents ?
Experiments: bs   bar, D-Dbar mixing+CPV+rare, 
Data sample of ∼50ab−1@Y(4S) needed to address these questions

Why FCNC decays?
Flavour changing neutral current (FCNC) processes (like
bs, bd) are fobidden at the tree level in the Standard
Model. Proceed only at low rate via higher-order loop
diagrams.
Ideal place to search for new physics.

 consistent with SM expectations (3.57±0.30) x 10-4
However: theory error is expected to get reduced by a factor
of ~2 (NNLL calculations are under way)
interesting for charged Higgs mass limit
need a better measurement of inclusive rate
Also: important to fix the value of Wilson coeff. C7 and to
determine the spectrum shape.

• Sensitive to NP – right handed

• Theoretically clean.
• Standard Model “~Zero”.

Interesting:
•Measurement of |Vtd/Vts|
Addresses the same physics issue as Bs- Bs mixing (from
a different perspective: box vs loop)
Difference in

Implications of Belle’s observation of bd 
Comparison with the recent observation of Bs mixing at Tevatron:
•green: Belle measurement of |Vtd/Vts| in bd 
•yellow: CDF measurement of |Vtd/Vts| from Bs mixing
The width of the Bs mixing
contour is limited by
theory while Bd γ needs
much more data.
