Lattice QCD prospects u To exploit precision measurements where hadronic parameters play a role, a substantial improvement should be achieved during the following decade Now Uncertainties in LQCD calculation dominated by systematic errors, overall accuracy does not improve according to simple scaling laws Disclaimer: estimates on a 10 years scale very difficult. . . to be taken cum grano salis Vub-excl. * Vcb-excl. * Pre-LHCb 2010 2014 6 TFlop year 40 TFlop year 1 PFlop year 11% 13% 5% 5% 4% 4% 2% 2% 5% 11% 3% 6% 2. 5% 5% 1. 5% 3% 4% 2% 1. 5% 1% 6 TFlop year and 10 TFlop year predictions from S.

(II) (i. e. before LHCb data) Summer 2006 2008* u Nice improvement in 2008, in particular for n mostly due to better and LQCD * Every projection to the future shown in this talk has been obtained by fine-tuning the central values of future measurements around Standard Model expectations, i. e. no New Physics assumed ! 5
LHCb impact with first year (I) -1 physics data (int. L=0. 5 fb ) u u Data taking in 2008 will be crucial to understand detector and trigger performance and assess the LHCb potential Can use well established measurements from the B-factories and the Tevatron to “calibrate” our CP sensitivity n B-factory sin 2 (final sensitivity ~0. 017) vs LHCb-2008 J/ KS sin 2 (~0. 04) l n Will demonstrate with already considerable precision that we can keep under control the main ingredients of CP-analyses, e. g. opposite side tagging Tevatron ms (final sensitivity ~0. 09 ps-1) vs LHCb-2008 (~0. 014 ps-1, stat. only) l Hadronic trigger, control of proper time resolution, same side K tagging, etc. 6
LHCb impact with first year (II) -1 physics data (int. L=0. 5 fb ) u Perform the first high precision measurement of s n Tevatron s (final sensitivity ~0. 2) vs LHCb-2008 (~0. 04) l u Bring down the limit of BR(Bs mm) n n u Other big milestone in the search for New Physics (see talk by J. Dickens) Potential to exclude BR between 10 -8 and SM value with the first year only ! Other relevant measurements n u Could make a 5 discovery of New Physics effects in the Bs mixing phase with the first year of data if NP s is O(10°) e. g. b-hadron lifetimes, B h+h-’ (see J. Nardulli), . . . First results with “more difficult” measurements. . . get a taste of! n e. g. Dalitz analyses of B DK and B ( )o 7
sin 2 from Bd J/ KS u The golden mode at B-factories, already well known, but still relevant to improve the measurement In one LHCb year (L=2 fb-1) (sin 2 ) Yield: ~216 k Bd J/ (mm)KS events with B/S 0. 8 Sensitivity: (sin 2 ) = 0. 02 background subtracted CP asymmetry with L=2 fb-1 now pre-LHCb with LHCb at L=2 fb-1 with LHCb at L=10 fb-1 year Overall improvement by roughly a factor 2 with LHCb at L=10 fb-1 8

Allowing for New Physics in the mixing The mixing processes being characterized by a single amplitude, they can be parametrized in a general way by Summer 2006 means of two parameters ( , ) with NP allowed n HSMeff includes only SM box diagrams while Hfulleff includes New Physics contributions as well Four “independent” observables n n CBd, CBs, Bs CBq=1, Bq=0 in SM Using Tree-level processes For the neutral kaon mixing case, it is convenient to introduce only one parameter assumed to be NP-free 0 0 *the effect in the D -D 5 additional parameters mixing is neglected 14
The - plane in 2014 allowing for NP in the mixing Without LHCb u By allowing for arbitrary NP contributions in the mixing, the UT apex will be basically determined by the Tree-level constraints, and it will be the reference for any NP model building n u With LHCb at L=10 fb-1 caveat: neglecting here NP effects in neutral D-meson mixing LHCb will further constrain the apex, due to substantial improvement in the measurement 15
Measuring New Physics in the Bs mixing End of Tevatron u Dramatic impact of LHCb on the Bs mixing phase n n can bring down the sensitivity to the NP contribution Bs from 5. 6° at the end of the Tevatron to 0. 3° NP in the Bs mixing will be known three times better than in the Bd by 2014 l without the need of improvements from theory With LHCb at L=10 fb-1 in 2014 As far as CBd and CBs are concerned, they are dominated by theory no great impact from LHCb measurements (CBs)~0. 06 (CBd)~0. 09 16
Interpretation of s vs sin 2 u u Most precise measurements today available are md/ ms, sin 2 and |Vub/Vcb| A disagreement between md/ ms and would spot out NP in the magnitude of the mixing amplitudes n u But uncertainty on still too large To find evidence of NP effects in the Bd mixing phase, it is instead important to compare sin 2 with |Vub/Vcb| n but need to heavily rely on Lattice QCD, interpretation in case of slight disagreement not trivial Example: current UT fits show slight disagreement between sin 2 and |Vub/Vcb|, due to excess of Vub-inclusive / defect of sin 2 (JHEP 0610 (2006) 081) First NP hint or theory problem in Vub? No such interpretation problems for s, just go and measure it ! If different from -0. 037± 0. 002, NP is there 17
Conclusions u LHCb will improve the knowledge of the Unitarity Triangle n n u in particular due to increased precision on the measurement of and , and maybe to a lesser extent of both in Standard Model and (even more) in NP allowed scenarios LHCb will measure the Bs mixing phase with ultimate precision n Impressive improvement of a factor 20 since the end of Tevatron data taking l NP angle Bs will be known at 5. 6° from the Tevatron, and 0. 3° at LHCb (with int. L=10 fb -1) ! l Much easier intepretation than sin 2 , NP might show up very early just with the first year of data in 2008 l After “LHCb phase I”, in 2014, NP in the Bs mixing will be more constrained than in the B d u Other big milestones from LHCb, not impacting on CKM fits or not considered in this talk n Radiative and rare decays l Bd K* , Bs , Bd K*mm, Bs mm n b sss penguins l e. g.

Bounds on NP size and phase Bd dark: 68% light: 95% Bs dark: 68% light: 95% The allowed NP amplitude is still large for small phase shift MFV scenarios are strongly favored at this point, but we still might see a large NP phase in Bs mixing 24
MFV or not MFV? New Physics in the b d and recently in b s sector starts to be quite constrained and most probably will not come as an alternative to the CKM picture, but rather as a «correction» Minimal Flavour Violation: the only source of flavour violation is in the SM Yukawa couplings (implies =0) New Physics couplings between third and second families (b s sector) stronger with respect to the b d ones Flavour physics needs to improve existing measurements in the Bd sector and perform precise measurement in the Bs sector (mixing phase still largely unknown) 25
