Nobel
Week 2008
The
2008 Nobel Prize was awarded to Makoto Kobayashi and Toshihide
Maskawa
(one half), and to Yoichiro Nambu (one half). Previous SLAC
Director
Jonathan Dorfan and I were invited by Kobayashi
san to attend,
along with our KEK colleagues, in recognition
(cited in
the
Nobel
press release) of the contributions of BABAR and Belle in
proving
the relevance of the CKM phase as the source of CP
violation in the
Standard Model.

SuperB
SuperB
is the name of a new asymmetric B Factory, with an unprecedented
luminosity
of 1036 cm-2s-1, as well as the name
of the detector. Both are in
the early stages of design,
with the aim of building the new collider and the
accompanying
experiment at the INFN Frascati Laboratory or on the campus
of the second Rome University at Tor
Vergata. Many of the components f
from PEP-II and BABAR can be reused n the construction of SuperB.
SuperB
will search for the effects of physics beyond the Standard Model by s
studying
subtle effects in CP-violating asymmetries in the decays of B
and D
mesons,
and in very rare heavy quark and tau lepton decays.
