A little bit of history... CP violation: difference in the properties of particles and their anti-particles – first observed in 1964 in the decays of neutral kaons. M. Kobayashi and T. Maskawa (1973): CP violation in the Standard model – related to the weak interaction quark transition matrix Their theory was formulated at a time when three quarks were known – and they requested the existence of three more! The last missing quark was found in 1994. ... and in 2001 two experiments – Belle and BaBar at two powerfull accelerators (B factories) - have further investigated CP violation and have indeed proven that it is tightly connected to the quark transition matrix Peter Križan, Ljubljana

KM’s bold idea verified by experiment Relations between parameters as expected in the Standard model Nobel prize 2008! With essential experimental confirmations by BaBar and Belle! (explicitly noted in the Nobel Prize citation) Peter Križan, Ljubljana
The KM scheme is now part of the Standard Model of Particle Physics •However, the CP violation of the KM mechanism is too small to account for the asymmetry between matter and anti-matter in the Universe (falls short by 10 orders of magnitude !) •SM does not contain the fourth fundamental interaction, gravitation •Most of the Universe is made of stuff we do not understand... matter ~ no anti-matter dark energy dark matter Peter Križan, Ljubljana
Are we done ? (Didn’t the B factories accomplish their mission, recognized by the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physics ?) Matter - anti-matter asymmetry of the Universe: KM (Kobayashi-Maskawa) mechanism still short by 10 orders of magnitude !!! Peter Križan, Ljubljana
Two frontiers Two complementary approaches to study shortcomings of the Standard Model and to search for the so far unobserved processes and particles (so called New Physics, NP). These are the energy frontier and the intensity frontier . Energy frontier : direct search for production of unknown particles at the highest achievable energies. I ntensity frontier : search for rare processes, deviations between theory predictions and experiments with the ultimate precision. for this kind of studies, one has to investigate a very large number of reactions events need accelerators with ultimate intensity (= luminosity) Peter Križan, Ljubljana
Comparison of energy / intensity frontiers To observe a large ship far away one can either use strong binoculars or observe carefully the direction and the speed of waves produced by the vessel. Energy frontier (LHC) Luminosity frontier (Belle and Belle I I ) Peter Križan, Ljubljana
An example: Hunting the charged Higgs in the decay B - τ − ν τ In addition to the Standard Model Higgs to be discovered at the LHC, in New Physics (e.g., in supersymmetric theories) there could also be a charged Higgs. b The rare decay B - τ − ν τ is in SM mediated τ W ν τ by the W boson u In some supersymmetric extensions it can also b H ± τ proceed via a charged Higgs ν τ u The charged Higgs would influence the decay of a B meson to a tau lepton and its neutrino, and modify the probability for this decay.

Missing Energy Decays: B - τ − ν τ By measuring the decay probability (branching fraction) and comparing it to the SM expectation: Properties of the charged Higgs (e.g. its mass) Peter Križan, Ljubljana
