The Final Measurement of ǫ′/ǫ from KTeV

چکیده

We present precise measurements of CP and CPT symmetry based on the full dataset of K → ππ decays collected by the KTeV experiment at FNAL. We measure the direct CP violation parameterRe(ǫ/ǫ) = (19.2 ±2.1) × 10. We find the KL-KS mass difference ∆m = (5265 ± 10)×10 6 h̄s and the KS lifetime τS = (89.62 ± 0.05)×10 s. We test CPT symmetry by finding the phase of the indirect CP violation parameter ǫ, φǫ = (44.09 ± 1.00), and the difference of the relative phases between the CP violating and CP conserving decay amplitudes for K → ππ (φ+−) and for K → ππ (φ00), ∆φ = (0.29 ± 0.31). These results are consistent with other experimental results and with CPT symmetry.

A short look at ǫ′/ǫ

We analyze the theoretical implications of the new KTeV measurement of direct CP-violation in K → ππ decays. The result is found consistent with the Standard Model for low values of the strange quark mass ms. If the hadronic parameters B (1/2) 6 and B (3/2) 8 satisfy 2B (1/2) 6 − B (3/2) 8 ≤ 2, as suggested by lattice and 1/Nc calculations, we find an upper bound of 110MeV for ms(2GeV). We para...

ǫ/ǫ Results from KTeV

Since the 1964 discovery of KL → π π [1], understanding CP violation has been a major goal of particle physics. Subsequent experiments showed that the dominant mechanism of CP violation in neutral kaons (still the only particle system in which CP violation has been observed) is a small asymmetry between K → K 0 and K 0 → K mixing. This asymmetry, referred to as indirect CP violation, results in...

Contribution to ǫ′/ǫ from anomalous gauge couplings

Recently KTev collaboration has measured Re(ǫ/ǫ) = (28 ± 4.1) × 10−4 which is in agreement with early measurement from NA31. The Standard Model prediction for ǫ/ǫ is on the lower end of the experimentally allowed range depending on models for hadronic matrix elements. In this paper we study the contributions from anomalous gauge couplings. We find that the contributions from anomalous couplings...

ǫ′/ǫ And Anomalous Gauge Boson Couplings

We study ǫ/ǫ in the Standard Model and ǫ/ǫ due to anomalous WWγ and WWZ interactions as a function of the top quark mass. In the Standard Model, ǫ/ǫ is in the range 10−3 ∼ 10−4 for the central value of top quark mass reported by CDF. The anomalous gauge couplings can have large contributions to the CP violating I = 2 amplitude in K → ππ. Within the allowed regions for the anomalous gauge coupli...

ENHANCED GLUINO BOX CONTRIBUTION TO ǫ/ǫ IN SUSY

We show that in supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model gluino box diagrams can yield a large CP-violating ∆I = 3 2 contribution to s → dq̄q flavor-changing neutral current processes, which feeds into the I = 2 isospin amplitude in K → ππ decays. This contribution only requires moderate mass splitting between the right-handed squarks ũR and d̃R, and persists for squark masses of order 1Te...
