High-luminosity, electron-positron colliders as strangeness, charm, and beauty factories.

摘要

High luminosity electron-positron colliders operating at the mass of the (phi) meson (1.02 GeV) can produce copious K(bar K)sup 0 pairs from a single quantum state. Temporal correlations in the decays of the K's provide a measure of the direct CP violating amplitude and also allow a high precision of CPT invariance. A low energy collider with high luminosity can serve as a beam physics testbed to evaluate novel approaches to collider design that may be necessary for B factories to attain luminosities (ge) 10(sup 34) cm(sup (minus)2)s(sup (minus)1). 12 refs., 2 tabs.
