Lepton Polarization Asymmetry in B → K

We investigate the longitudinal lepton polarization asymmetry in the exclusive processes B → Kℓ + ℓ − and B → K * ℓ + ℓ −. We include both short and long-distance contributions to the asymmetry in our discussions. We find that average values of the polarization asymmetries of the muon and tau for B → K

In this paper, we present a deep neural network (DNN)-based acoustic scene classification framework. Two hierarchical learning methods are proposed to improve the DNN baseline performance by incorporating the hierarchical taxonomy information of environmental sounds. Firstly, the parameters of the DNN are initialized by the proposed hierarchical pre-training. Multi-level objective function is t...

LEPTON CP ASYMMETRY IN B FACTORIES: ǫB AND NEW PHYSICS

The study of various possible CP -violating phenomena in weak B-meson decays, starting from the end of 1970’s, becomes more intensive today – on the eve of KEK and SLAC B factories, which will provide a unique opportunity to test the Kobayashi-Maskawa (KM) mechanism of CP violation in the standard model (SM) and to discover possible new physics (NP) beyond the SM. Phenomenologically three diffe...

The Small Observed Baryon Asymmetry from a Large Lepton Asymmetry

Primordial Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) tightly constrains the existence of any additional relativistic degrees of freedom at that epoch. However a large asymmetry in electron neutrino number shifts the chemical equilibrium between the neutron and proton at neutron freeze-out and allows such additional particle species. Moreover, the BBN itself may also prefer such an asymmetry to reconcile p...
