CP VIOLATION EXPERIMENTS AT A B-MESON FACTORY

If the observed CP asymmetry in K0K0BAR oscillations has its origin in the Standard charged weak interaction, large CP violating effects are expected to occur in B-meson decays. A clear and promising example is the CP asymmetry in the decays B0 --> J/PSI K(S)0 and B0BAR --> J/PSI K(S)0. The study of these decays is therefore used for optimizing experiments at a "B-Meson Factory", a future e+e- storage ring producing boosted UPSILON(4S) mesons with high rate. The luminosity requirements are discussed, and some results on feasibility studies for the storage ring and for a universal detector are presented.
