The Belle II Super B Factory Experiment at KEK

ORAL

Abstract

Plans for the Super B Factory at KEK and the associated Belle II detector will be presented. The new facility will be an upgrade of the existing KEKB electron-positron collider, with a target luminosity of 8 x 10$^{35}$ /cm$^2$/s - about 50 times greater than that of KEKB. The Belle II detector will study rare flavor physics processes with unprecedented sensitivity for indirect (virtual-particle) contributions from as-yet unexplored phenomena at the TeV scale.
