Abstract

In the main part of the paper we project forward to having BB factory determinations of sin(2β)\sin(2\beta) and sin(2α)\sin(2\alpha), for which we take several values. First, we use a joint χ2\chi^2 analysis of CKM experiments to constrain CKM matrix elements in the standard model, and experiments on the angles α\alpha, β\beta, and γ\gamma, and on xsx_s and null CPCP asymmetries. Then we invoke mixing to a new isosinglet down quark (as in E6_6) which induces FCNC that allow a Z0Z^0 mediated contribution to BBˉB-\bar B mixing and which brings in new phases. We then repeat the χ2\chi^2 analysis, now including experimental constraints from FCNC as well, finding much larger ranges of prediction for the BB factory. We then add projected BB factory results on sin(2β)\sin(2\beta) and sin(2α)\sin(2\alpha) and repeat both analyses. In (ρ,η)(\rho,\eta) and (xs,sin(γ))(x_s,\sin{(\gamma)}) plots for the extra isosinglet down quark model, we find multiple regions that will require experiments on sin(γ)\sin{(\gamma)} and/or xsx_s to decide between and possibly to effectively bound out the extra down quark contribution.
