New Physics Are there new particles beyond those in the SM, which have different couplings (either in magnitude or in phase) ? Supersymmety is an example (~40 new phases)
How to find New Physics Phases Example: Vts: no KM phase * Vtd , h’, K+K- + Vtd* SM: f f , h’, K+K- B B eff sin 2 1 = sin 2 1 from f 1 _ B J/y K 0 (b c c s) unless there are other, non-SM particles in the loop
How New Physics may enter in b s New physics in loops? Many new phases are possible in SUSY
Extra dimensions (by Randall + Sundrum) New Kaluza-Klein (K. K) particles are associated with the extra dimension.

Fundamental Questions in Flavor Physics Why three generations ? Are there New Physics Phases and New sources of CP Violation Beyond the SM ? hep. String Theory ? (e. g. P. Binetruy et. al. , Experiments: b s CPV, compare CPV angles from tree and loops th/0509157; J. Phys G. 32: 129 (2006)); Larger Are there new operators with quarks enhanced Symmetry Groups ? by New Physics ? Experiments: AFB(B K*l l), B K rates and asymmetries Experiments with quarks or heavy Are there right-handed currents ? leptons? Experiments: b s CPV, B->VPγ or B V V triple-product asymmetries Are there new flavor changing neutral currents ? This question is probably too hard Experiments: b s ννbar, D-Dbar CPV+mixing+rare, τ γ – more tractable questions…. . These questions can only be answered at a Super B Factory.
Lessons of History New Physics is usually discovered first in loop processes, which involve high mass virtual particles. (Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle) Example I: Absence of KL allowed theorists to deduce the existence of the charm quark. The rate of K mixing allowed a rough determination of the charm mass. Example II: The absence of b s decays and the long B lifetime ruled out topless models. Large Bd mixing showed the top was heavy contrary to theory prejudices of the time. Radiative corrections from Z measurements determined the rough range of the top mass. Vtd Beautiful and precise measurements of the top quark mass at the Tevatron. However, the couplings |Vts|, |Vtd, | and most importantly the phase of (Vtd) cannot be measured in direct top production.

LHCb J. Libby 10 fb-1 for LHCb The Super B Factory will face tough competition 50 fb-1 for Super. B from LHCb, which is now a real experiment. There is considerable complementarity: photon, neutral detection and inclusive channels are considerable easier at the Super B Factory while time-dependent Bs studies are superior at LHCb.
