In a wide class of new-physics models, which can be motivated through generic
arguments and within supersymmetry, we obtain large contributions to
B0d–0d mixing, but not to ΔB = 1 processes.
If we assume such a scenario, the solutions ϕd ∼ 47o V 133o for the B0d–0d
mixing phase implied by
CPmix(Bd→J/ψKS) cannot be converted
directly into a constraint in the – plane.
However, we may complement ϕdwith |Vub/Vcb| and
the recently measured CP asymmetries in Bd→π+π−to
determine the unitarity triangle, with its angles α, β and
γ. To this end, we have also to control penguin effects, which we do
by means of the CP-averaged Bd→π∓K±branching ratio.
Interestingly, the present data show a perfectly consistent picture not only
for the ``standard'' solution of ϕd ∼ 47o, but also for
ϕd ∼ 133o. In the latter case, the preferred region for the apex
of the unitarity triangle is in the second quadrant, allowing us to accommodate
conveniently γ>90o, which is also favoured by other non-leptonic
B decays such as B→πK. Moreover, also the prediction for
BR(K+→π+ν) can be brought to better
agreement with experiment. Further strategies to explore this scenario with
the help of Bd,s→μ+μ−decays are discussed as well.
