1) Measure of Fundamental SM Params:

CKM elements & phases

2) Search for New Physics:

look for evidence of new particles in loops

3) Unanticipated new phenomena:

large (e+e-cccc), X(3872),X(3940),Y(3940),..

SM with KM ansatz works remarkably well for tree-level

Next step: Look for new physics in penguin loops

Example: bsss

Example: no KM phase

SM: sin21 = sin21 from BJ/ KS (bc c s)

unless there are other, non-SM particles in the loop

Significant CP Violation in a bs penguin mode!!

>>QCD corrections : sin2(penguin)>sin2(tree)

[Beneke, hep-ph/0505075][Cheng,Chua,Soni, hep-ph/0506268]

Conclusion

• The Belle collaboration remains strong– Our publishing is nearing 1 paper/week– We have two new & energetic spokespersons

• Our detector continues to perform well– Continuously improvements to handle increased luminosity (&bkg)

• We have shown that the CKM ansatz works well for tree processes

– Verified with high precision– Provides “anchor point” for new physics searches

• CPV in penguins provide us with sensitive probe for new physics

– Theoretically and experimentally clean– We are measuring Bf~10-6 penguin processes with high precision

• We have made a number of “unexpected discoveries”– And expect many more in the future
