IV. possibilities in future + e e colliders
Future e+e- colliders • Super B factory (Belle II): – Same energy as B factory, but much higher luminosity (~x 40) • Linear collider (ILC) – Much higher energy (√s > 200 Ge. V), L=O(1034) cm 2 – Higgs, Top, SUSY, … • Higgs collider (CEPC in China) – Dedicated for Higgs production by e+e- h. Z – √s=240 Ge. V, L=O(1034) cm 2 • What can be done in these colliders?
I. Belle II •
II. Higher energies • Necessary for beauty baryons – Comparison with charm baryons – Finding heavy quark symmetry partners • Statistics is the first issue – High luminosity x high cross section • Best energy? – On Z mass – Large cross section
Statistics@√s=MZ • b multiplicity: 3. 1± 1. 6 per 100 hadron production events Cross section: ~ 1 nb • For integrated luminosity of 1 ab-1 109 events • 105 reconstructed events • Similar level as c at Belle – Enough statistics – Chance for exotics – Smaller statistics than LHC
Merit? • So, what is good for ILC/CEPC compared to LHC? 1. Smaller backgrounds • Good for excited states 2. Polarization • • • Produced b is > 90% polarized Charm is also ~60% polarized Physics with polarization is possible.
Determination of parity • Spin is rather easy to determine from e. g. , decay angle distribution, but parity is difficult • Why? – For the case J 1/2 + 0 (e. g. , Y + ), different parity gives exactly the same decay distribution – E. g. , for J=3/2, the decay is either P-wave (l=1) or D-wave (l=2) (for parity conserving case), so the problem is to determine l. – However…

Example: Spin 1/2 case •
Spin structure study from polarization • Helicity PDF: Dq, Dg distribution of (longitudinally) polarized parton in a baryon. • Analog in fragmentation: polarization transfer – Polarized quark polarized baryon – Also reflects quark helicity structure – The fragmentation polarization transfer factor is equal to the fraction of spin carried by the f-flavor-quark divided by the average number of quark of flavor f in the hyperon – First suggested by Augustin and Renard in 1979 • Longitudinal polarization in weak decays – Quark polarization: reliably calculable – Baryon polarization: measurable
Past measurements at LEP • OPAL and ALEPH measured polarization in Z 0 decay – Z 0 s: polarized by -0. 94 – Contamination by ss-bar pair creation during fragmentation treated in simulation, with sizable uncertainty – Consistent with quark model within the uncertainty • b measurements with large statistical uncertainty
So, what can we do? • Problem: can be produced from u/d quark Uncertainty for dilution • This problem does not appear in heavier quarks Proposed measurement: Polarization of charmed/bottom baryons, especially c/ b
Polarization measurements • Using decay asymmetries in b c + - ( c + +) – W(q)=1+Pacosq – Examples: b + J/y: a = 0. 18± 0. 13, BR~ 0. 03%(? ) c + : a = -0. 91± 0. 15, BR~ 2% c + e, m + n: a = -0. 86± 0. 04, BR~ 3% each – Can be better determined Should be measured first • d. P~0. 01 would be possible with 105 reconstructed events
Comparison with model calculation • To what extent can we distinguish models? – In QM, P b=Pb~-0. 9 – d. P b~0. 01 gives d. DC~0. 01 – Easy to distinguish DC~1 and DC~0. 6 • Theoretically, heavy quark symmetry supports QM • Note: contributions from higher resonances, such as b, should be taken into account. – Such contributions (on yields) are measurable – Polarizations of such excited baryons should be modeled, too.

Hyperon polarization in c decay Kiyoshi Tanida (JAEA)
Idea • To measure hyperon polarization in c decay – Semileptonic: c Y + e(m) + n – Non-leptonic: c Y + – Main target is Y= (1405) • Why it is interesting? – s quark from charm decay is polarized – Naively, polarization transfer from quark to hyperon = How much fraction of spin of hyperon is carried out by the quark. E. g. , quark model predicts P( )=P(s)~-0. 9 – We can discuss hyperon spin structure. – For (1405), 3 quark state should have P~+0. 3, while 5 quark state (or KN bound state) should have P~0.
Existing data (from PDG) • c + e(m) + n: P=a=-0. 86± 0. 04 OK • c + +: P=-0. 91± 0. 15 OK • c + + 0: P=-0. 45± 0. 32 OK? – Contribution of strange quark should give P~+0. 3, but there is a contribution of up quark P~-0. 6, giving P~-0. 3 in total Seemingly, the naïve model can explain the existing data
Semileptonic modes • Theoretically clean, but experimentally difficult. • No peak in invariant mass because of missing n. – BG may be severe – Very complicated analysis for c + e(m) + n • Tagging c in missing mass? (Niiyama-san’s idea) – 36 k tagged c – If BR to (1405) + e(m) + n is 3% 1000 decays – Acceptance & efficiency: 10%? 100 counts? Detection may be possible with existing data, but need Belle 2 statistics to measure polarization
Nonleptonic modes • Opposite pros and cons – Experimentally easier, but interpretation is difficult. – But existing data is encouraging. • Can (1405) be seen in c decay? – Yes! – In c + + By Manfred Berger – (1520) is also seen, which is important as a reference (or “control data”) Sorry, the plot cannot be shown.
