UCSD/PTH 99–04 Determining Vub from B + → D ∗+ s e+ e − and B + → D ∗+ e + e −
نویسنده
چکیده
It was recently pointed out that the decays B+ → D∗+ s γ and B+ → D∗+γ can be used for an extraction of |Vub|. The theory of these decays is poorly understood. It was shown that in a world of almost degenerate b and c-quarks the decay would be computable. The severe difficulties that are encountered in the realistic calculation stem primarily from the very hard photon produced in the two body decay. We point out that in the decays B+ → D∗+ s e+e− and B+ → D∗+e+e− the photon vertex is soft when the charmed meson is nearly at rest (in the B+ rest frame). This allows us to compute with some confidence the decay rate in a restricted but interesting kinematic regime. Given enough data the extraction of Vub with reasonably small uncertainties could proceed through an analysis of these exclusive decays much as is done in the determination of Vcb. 12.15.Hh, 12.39.Hg, 13.40.Hq, 13.25.Hw Typeset using REVTEX [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]

متن کاملOn Silverman's conjecture for a family of elliptic curves
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $Bbb{Q}$ with the given Weierstrass equation $ y^2=x^3+ax+b$. If $D$ is a squarefree integer, then let $E^{(D)}$ denote the $D$-quadratic twist of $E$ that is given by $E^{(D)}: y^2=x^3+aD^2x+bD^3$. Let $E^{(D)}(Bbb{Q})$ be the group of $Bbb{Q}$-rational points of $E^{(D)}$. It is conjectured by J. Silverman that there are infinitely many primes $p$ for which $...

The decays B+ → D∗+ s γ and B+ → D∗+γ can be used for an extraction of |Vub|. When the b and c quarks are nearly degenerate the rate for these modes can be determined in terms of other observed rates, namely BB mixing and D → Dγ decay. To this end we introduce a novel application of heavy quark and flavor symmetries. Although somewhat unrealistic, this limit provides us with a first estimate of...

A total of 288 broiler chickens (1 d old) were used in a 42-d growth trial to study the effects of chicory (Cichorium intybus) and nettle (Urtica dioica) with or without multi-enzyme on growth performance, carcass traits, and biochemical parameters. The corn-soybean based control diet and 8 experimental diets were fed to each of 3 pens of chickens (12 chickens/pen). Treatments were as follows: ...
