Complementarity: Flavor Physics in the LHC Era

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

The LHC physics era is about to commence; here we discuss a complementary physics program that would be realized at a high luminosity flavor factory. A flavor factory experiment can search for new physics in CP asymmetries, inclusive decay processes, rare leptonic processes, absolute branching fractions, and other measurements that are challenging or not feasible at the LHC. Such measurements would provide good sensitivity to new physics phases, the presence of a charged Higgs, and supersymmetric couplings. The charged Higgs mass range probed is similar to that accessible at the LHC.
