abstract
The Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider has collected almost 1 billion Y(4S) events in its decade of operation. Super-KEKB, an upgrade of KEKB is under construction, to increase the luminosity by two orders of magnitude during a three-year shutdown, with an ultimate goal of 8E35 /cm^2 /s luminosity. To exploit the increased luminosity, an upgrade of the Belle detector has been proposed. A new international collaboration Belle-II, is being formed. The Technical Design Report presents physics motivation, basic methods of the accelerator upgrade, as well as key improvements of the detector.

A general technique incorporates CPT-violating operators of arbitrary mass dimension from effective field theory into neutral-meson oscillation formalism, enabling first measurements of dimension-five operators from existing experiments.
Belle and Belle II present results on b to s lepton-pair and b to s neutrino-pair decays, including reinterpretation of B+ to K+ nu nu-bar and the first inclusive B to X_s nu nu-bar measurement.
This work provides a comprehensive analysis of light new physics contributions to tau lepton dipole moments, detailing interpretations of asymmetry measurements for spin-0 and spin-1 bosons, their decoupling to the EFT limit, and a case study of a tauphilic vector boson at Belle II.
Belle II sets upper limits between 1.3 and 2.5 times 10 to the minus 8 on branching fractions for four tau to e l l decay modes at 90 percent confidence level, the most stringent to date for four modes.
First Belle II results on B lifetimes and mixing from commissioning data of 0.5 fb^{-1}.
Graph neural networks can identify and remove unwanted beam background depositions in the Belle II calorimeter to improve hadronic clustering and reduce fake photon clusters.
A new diagnostic creates per-wire efficiency plots for the Belle II CDC by extrapolating helix reference tracks and measuring the fraction of expected crossings with associated hits.
Multi-face 4S SiPM readout on scintillators achieves 68 ps TOF resolution and measures cosmic muon velocity.
GraphPT, a U-Net-style graph neural network with attention, improves K/π separation power by 10-20% over the truncated mean method for dN/dx-based PID in the 5-20 GeV/c range.
Belle II sets 90% CL upper limits on the Born cross sections for e+e−→γχbJ near √s=10.746 GeV, with those for χb1 being significantly smaller than for ωχb1 and π+π−Υ(2S).
Measurements of b to s lepton-pair, tau-pair, and neutrino-pair decays presented from Belle and Belle II datasets.
STCF with 1 ab^{-1} can probe several-TeV new-physics scales in sterile-neutrino EFT and constrain an RPV SUSY parameter to ~0.1 TeV^{-2} for apparent BNV in unexplored Lambda_c+ channels.
Improved cross-section measurements reveal Υ(10753) decays to χ_bJ ω but not non-ω three-pion states, while Υ(10860) shows the reverse pattern, plus updated mass 10756.1 ± 3.4 ± 2.7 MeV and width 32.2 ± 11.3 ± 14.9 MeV for Υ(10753).
Proposal to add polarized electron beams to SuperKEKB for left-right asymmetry measurements of electroweak parameters including sin²θ_W at the Υ(4S) resonance.
Belle II proposes a DMAPS-based vertex detector upgrade with the OBELIX chip targeting 6e35 cm^-2 s^-1 luminosity, 120 MHz/cm2 hit rates, and radiation tolerance to 5e14 neq/cm2.
Early Belle II data validates reconstruction of CP-violation channels and supplies sensitivity estimates for φ1/β and φ2/α with the full dataset.
Early Belle II commissioning data is used to re-measure standard B to X lepton neutrino and B to D* lepton neutrino decays and to evaluate machine learning tagging algorithms for future lepton flavor universality tests.
