Getting SM and New Physics CP phases from $B$ Decays

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-09-06 v1

Abstract

A method to extract Standard Model(SM) CP phases involving B decays is presented. The method involves a pair of decays where one decay receives a significant bdb \to d penguin contribution while the second has a significant bsb \to s penguin contribution, but is dominated by a single amplitude. SM CP phase information is obtained using the fact that the bsb \to s transition amplitude is related by SU(3) to a piece of the amplitude with the bdb \to d transition. If there is significant new physics only in bsb \to s transitions and not in bdb \to d transitions then this method can be used to measure new physics(NP) phases.
