چکیده

Exclusive non-leptonic decays play a crucial part in the on-going programme to clarify the sources of CP violation and rare flavour-changing phenomena. As regards CP violation this is illustrated by the fact that there exists a fair knowledge of the length of each of the sides of the unitarity triangle from semi-leptonic B decays and BB̄ mixing. Since recently, the angle β (more precisely, sin 2β) is determined fairly accurately by the time-dependent CP asymmetry in the nonleptonic decay Bd → J/ψKS and related ones. However, the direct measurement of the other angle γ, the phase of V ∗ ub in the standard phase convention, remains a challenge to theory and experiment. Although γ is determined indirectly through the other measurements, the complementary direct determination is important, since meson mixing and rare non-leptonic decays could be affected by new flavour-changing interactions. The angle γ can be determined from decays with some kind of interference of b → cūD (no phase) and b → uc̄D (phase γ) tree transitions and their conjugates (D = d, s) or from decays with interference of b→ uūD (tree, phase γ) and b→ Dqq̄ (penguin, phase 0 (D = s), β (D = d)). There exist a few methods that allow one to obtain γ in a theoretically clean way, which means that no calculation of strong interaction effects is needed, but these methods are all difficult to realize experimentally at present. The more general

Non - leptonic weak decays and final state interactions in lattice QCD ∗ †

Exclusive non-leptonic weak decays are a fundamental ingredient in the determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements and in the study of CP violation in the K-, Dand B-meson decays. However, the study of these non-leptonic decays involves nonperturbative aspects of the strong interactions, a challenging task for our still incomplete knowledge of non-perturbative dynamics....

A Novel PQCD Approach in Charmless B - meson Decays

We discuss a novel pertubative QCD approach on the exclusive non-leptonic two body B-meson decays. We briefly review its ingredients and some important theoretical issues on the factorization approaches. We show numerical results which is compatible with recent experimantal data for the charmless B-meson decays.

QCD factorization for exclusive non - leptonic B - meson decays : General arguments and the case of heavy – light final states

QCD factorization for exclusive non-leptonic B-meson decays: General arguments and the case of heavy–light final states Abstract We provide a rigorous basis for factorization for a large class of non-leptonic two-body B-meson decays in the heavy-quark limit. The resulting factorization formula incorporates elements of the naive factorization approach and the hard-scattering approach , but allow...

Analysis of the B → a 1 ( 1260 ) form - factors with light - cone QCD sum rules

In this article, we calculate the B → a1(1260) form-factors V1(q 2), V2(q 2), V3(q 2) and A(q2) with the B-meson light-cone QCD sum rules. Those formfactors are basic parameters in studying the exclusive non-leptonic two-body decays B → AP and semi-leptonic decays B → Alνl, B → Al̄l. Our numerical results are consistent with the values from the (light-cone) QCD sum rules. The main uncertainty co...
