Parameters for a Super-Flavor-Factory
A Super Flavor Factory, an asymmetric energy e+e- collider with a luminosity
of order 10^36 cm-2s-1, can provide a sensitive probe of new physics in the
flavor sector of the Standard Model. The success of the PEP-II and KEKB
asymmetric colliders in producing unprecedented luminosity above 10^34 cm-2s-1
has taught us about the accelerator physics of asymmetric e+e- colliders in a
new parameter regime. Furthermore, the success of the SLAC Linear Collider and
the subsequent work on the International Linear Collider allow a new
Super-Flavor collider to also incorporate linear collider techniques. This note
describes the parameters of an asymmetric Flavor-Factory collider at a
luminosity of order 10^36 cm-2s-1 at the Upsilon(4S) resonance and about 10^35
cm-2s-1 at the Tau production threshold. Such a collider would produce an
integrated luminosity of about 10,000 fb-1 (10 ab-1) in a running year (10^7
sec) at the Upsilon(4S) resonance.Comment: Flavor Physics & CP Violation Conference, Vancouver, 200
Motzkin numbers, central trinomial coefficients and hybrid polynomials
We show that the formalism of hybrid polynomials, interpolating between
Hermite and Laguerre polynomials, is very useful in the study of Motzkin
numbers and central trinomial coefficients. These sequences are identified as
special values of hybrid polynomials, a fact which we use to derive their
generalized forms and new identities satisfied by them.Comment: 13 page
