Second Workshop on the Discovery Potential
of an Asymmetric B Factory at 1036 Luminosity
SLAC
Wednesday-Friday, October 22-24, 2003
Announcement:
With the now rather precise measurement of
sin2beta by BABAR and
Belle, it is likely that all Standard Model CKM phase accounts for the
CP-violating effects measured to date. The inability of the Standard
Model CP
violation to account for the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the
universe tells
us, however, that there must be sources of CP violation beyond the
Standard
Model.
This workshop is aimed at refining our
understanding of the
capabilities of an asymmetric B Factory at the very high luminosity of
1036
cm-2s-1 to uncover effects in rare heavy quark
decays that
could lead to progress in finding physics beyond the Standard Model. By
confronting detailed predictions of Standard Model extensions such as
supersymmetry, little Higgs or extra dimensions, with experiments
feasible with
an integrated data set of 10 to 50 ab-1, we will explore the
power of
a Super B Factory to illuminate the flavor sector of physics beyond the
Standard
Model and compare this capability with that of experiments based at
hadron
coliiders.
The three-day Workshop, consisting of
plenary and parallel
sessions, is open to theorists and experimentalists alike.
Talks will be posted to the BaBar internal
web and will be in general publicly available,
Program:
The workshop is scheduled for October 22-24, 2003.
The agenda is available in pdf
and html
format with links to the presentations.
You can find in the Babar 1036
study group home page some background material.
Registration:
Registration is closed for this workshop.
LIST OF
PARTICIPANTS
Four working groups have been established to organize of
the workshop and
write the report. Below you find the links to the drop areas for the
working
groups, to be used for exchange of material. The Babar organizer in
each group
should have write access to the corresponding directory:

Proceedings:
There will be a Proceedings, covering the material presented at the May
and October Workshops as well as other relevant contributions. Our goal
is to have the Proceedings available at the end of April, 2004. We will
be able to include outstanding contributions to the Proceedings if they
are received by March 31.
The Proceedings will be edited primarily by the Workshop Conveners,
with overall editing by JoAnne
Hewett and David Hitlin
. Please
address comments or questions to them or to the conveners of the
individual working groups listed in the table above.
A LaTeX template with instructions and required style files can be
found here.
Drafts of the
individual Working Group Chapters can be found below. These will be
updated periodically until the final Proceedings is ready.
