Annihilation: Rescattering Corrections *
نویسنده
چکیده
Top quark pair production close to threshold at a next linear col-lider is discussed, with special focus on the influence of rescattering corrections. Numerical results are shown for the differential cross-section, i.e. the momentum distribution and the forward backward asymmetry, and for moments of the angular distribution of leptons arising from the semileptonic top quark decay.

2 00 1 Longitudinal top quark polarization
Longitudinal polarization of the top quark, averaged over the production angle, is discussed for the top quark produced in e+e− annihilation near its production threshold. It is demonstrated that Coulomb type corrections and rescattering corrections are important. They change considerably measurable quantities and should be taken into account in phenomenological analysis. PACS numbers: 13.88.+e...
متن کاملAnnihilation, Rescattering, and Cp Asymmetries in B Meson Decays
A number of B meson decays may proceed only through participation of the spectator quark, whether through amplitudes proportional to fB/mB or via rescattering from other less-suppressed amplitudes. An expected hierarchy of amplitudes in the absence of rescattering will be violated by rescattering corrections. Such violations could point the way toward channels in which final-state interactions ...
متن کاملDirect CP Violation and Final State Interactions in Hadronic B Decays
Although mixing-induced CP violation in B decays has been observed in the golden mode B → J/ψKS for several years, a first confirmed observation of direct CP asymmetry was not established until recently in the charmless B decays B 0 (B) → Kπ by both BaBar [1] and Belle [2]. Also the combined BaBar and Belle measurements of B 0 → ρπ imply a 3.6σ direct CP asymmetry in the ρπ mode [3]. As for dir...
متن کاملOn the role of hard rescattering in exclusive diffractive Higgs production
We discuss the contribution of so-called semi-enhanced hard rescattering corrections to central exclusive diffractive Higgs production, pp → p+H+p, at the LHC. We present arguments to show that these corrections are small. We confirm these expectations by considering HERA data for leading neutron production.
متن کاملExclusive Higgs boson production at the LHC: hard rescattering corrections
We examine, as a correction to the central exclusive Higgs boson production in pp collisions at the LHC, the rescattering of gluonic ladders off the proton. As usual, at the lowest order the hard part of this process can be described as a fusion of two hard gluonic ladders. We calculate corrections to this hard amplitude which are due to rescattering of these ladders. These corrections, which c...
