Scope of Talk
• To present updated branching fractions (BF) and CP asymmetries (ACP) for rare (charmless) B decay modes
• To show how BF and ACP are used with theoretical models to put constraints on the Standard Model and to search for New Physics.
NB: All results are preliminary unless referenced.

Motivation for Rare Decays
• SM is a very good approximation to reality
Hence
• Need to consider processes where is small in order to be sensitive to new physics.
• Hence processes dominated by penguin loops, or CKM - suppressed decays

Procedure
• Compare nature (precise, experimental measurements) with SM (theoretical models) for sensitive quantities.
• Agreement gives an alternative route to (, ) and additional constraints on the unitarity triangle.
• Disagreement means:– New Physics …. OR
– Refinements needed to theoretical calculations … ….AND Model-independent calculations needed

Classes of theoretical calculations
• QCD Factorisation (mb >> QCD)
Amps factorise to LO ( / mb), all orders S
Naïve factorisation recovered in LO
• PhenomenologyAmplitudes of dominant processes related to
measured BF and each other via SU(3)
• Model “Independent”Isospin & minimal dynamical assumptions
bounds on deviations from SM

Is Rescattering Important?
• Could modify branching fractions and CP asymmetries in and K decays, complicating extraction of and
• KK decays are more sensitive to rescattering– Could have significant enhancement through (for example) DD

How does theory stack up?
• Good phenomenological understanding of Branching Fractions for 2-body PP and PV decays
[Chiang et al hep-ph/0307395; Beneke et al hep-ph/0308039; Keum et al hep-ph/0306004]
• Factorisation models give insight into dynamics, but:– BF for 0 0 looks to be in disagreement with all predictions– BF for K, ' K, K* final states underestimated in QCDF[Annihilation contribution may be too large Aleksan et al, hep-ph/0301165]
• Asymmetry data is not yet precise enough to test models
• There is still a considerable role for model-independent theoretical calculations

When is it safe to claim New Physics?
For B0 KS, 'KS, K+K-KS we expect to measure:
S = sin(2) + , C = , where = O (2)
If S and C are measured precisely (S, C << 2 = 0.05)
Claim new physics if: |C| > 5, or |S- sin(2)| > 5

Summary – What have we learned?
• Precision measurements of branching fractions are testing factorisation models – to destruction??
• Precise measts of ACP will enable further tests of models. Is there a hint of a signal in K+- ?
• B K, K*,'K, 'K* are now almost understood, but polarisation << 100% in K* is a puzzle
• Measuring the BF for 0 0 is a triumph, but the value is surprisingly high. Increased focus on 00 for | - eff|
• Measurement of many more decay modes is needed to make model-independent tests of NP meaningful
• The expected increase in luminosity of the B Factories promises a continuing, rich harvest of physics
