Isospin Amplitudes and CP violation in ( B →
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a simple isospin invariant parametrization for (B → Kπ) decay amplitudes which consistently includes CP violation and (quasi-elastic) hadronic final state interactions. We find that the observed (B → Kπ) decays do not lead to a significant bound on the angle γ of the unitarity triangle. On the other hand, we claim that a sizeable CP violation asymmetry in (B± → Kπ±) rates is by no means excluded.

An Isospin Analysis of CP Violation in B
By use of current experimental data, we carry out an isospin analysis of the weak decays B → Dπ, D * π and Dρ. It is found that only in B → Dρ the strong phase shift of two different isospin amplitudes can be approximately neglected. We derive some useful relations between the CP-violating measurables and the weak and strong transition phases, and illustrate the different effects of final-state...
متن کاملIsospin Breaking in K → ππ Decays ∗
We perform a complete analysis of isospin breaking in K → 2π amplitudes in chiral perturbation theory, including both strong isospin violation (m u = m d) and electromagnetic corrections to next-to-leading order in the low-energy expansion. The unknown chiral couplings are estimated at leading order in the 1/N c expansion. We study the impact of isospin breaking on CP conserving amplitudes and ...
متن کاملIsospin Breaking in K → 3 π Decays I : Strong Isospin Breaking
The CP conserving amplitudes for the decays K → 3π are calculated in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The calculation is made at the next-to-leading order including strong and local electromagnetic isospin breaking. A comparison is made between the squared amplitudes with and without isospin violation to estimate the size of the effect. We find corrections of order five percent in the amplitudes.
متن کاملSuppression of Flavor Symmetry Breaking in B Decay Sum Rules
While flavor symmetries are useful for studying hadronic B decays, symmetry relations for amplitudes and decay rates are usually violated by first order symmetry breaking corrections. We point out two cases in which first order symmetry breaking is suppressed by a small ratio of amplitudes: (1) An isospin sum rule for four B → Kπ decays, where isospin breaking is shown to be negligible. (2) An ...
