The Standard Model predicts a very small CP violation phase sin2ΦBsSM0.04\sin2\Phi^{\rm SM}_{B_s} \simeq -0.04%= \arg M_{12} \simeq \arg\,(V^*_{ts}V_{tb})^2in in B_s--\bar B_smixing. mixing. %, i.e. of order \lambda^2\eta.Anyfinitevalueof.

With recent hints for finite \sin2\Phi_{B_s},, % have appeared from CDF and D\O\, experiments at the Tevatron, we reconsider the possibility of a 4th generation. As recent direct search bounds have become considerably heavier than 300 GeV, we take the t'masstobeneartheunitarityboundof500GeV.Combiningthemeasuredvaluesof mass to be near the unitarity bound of 500 GeV.
