Measuring the B B flavor oscillation Time evolution of BB Schrödinger-like equation Probability for flavor oscillation

Time evolution of BB In case of CP violation mass eigenstates of BB are: Time evolution of the mass eigenstates mass eigenstates propagate not the flavor eigenstates ==

Schrödinger-like equation The time evolution of flavored B (B) obey Schrödinger-like equation M is the mass matrix  is the decay matrix Solving eigenvalue equation:  m B =Re( + - - ) and  B = -2Im( + - - ) + = H and - = L

Flavor oscillation  can be used for flavor propagation in time The time-dependent probabilities proportional to: ~1 B Flavor oscillation depends on  m B : Measure by B  B as function of time
