Global CKM fit in the (ρ-bar,η-bar) plane using the standard inputs:

Confidence levels in the large (upper) and small (lower) (ρ-bar,η-bar) plane obtained from the global CKM fit. The constraints from the HFAG averages (ICHEP 04) of sin(2β)/sin(2Φ1) and sin(2α)/sin(2Φ2) are included in the fit.

The global CKM fit plots are given in both conventions found in the literature: "pdg" (α, β, γ) and the original one "Phi" (φ1, φ2, φ3)

eps: pdg, phi

zoom: pdg, phi


Confidence levels in the large (ρ-bar,η-bar) plane obtained from the global CKM fit. The constraints from the HFAG averages (ICHEP 04) of sin(2β)/sin(2Φ1) and sin(2α)/sin(2Φ2) are superimposed, but not included in the fit.
