Decays Be Described By Factorization ?

The new measurements of B → J/ψK(K∗) decays by CDF and CLEO indicate that the production ratio R and the fraction of longitudinal polarization ΓL/Γ are smaller than the previous results. In conjunction with the new result of parity-odd transverse polarization in B → J/ψK∗, we found a minimal modification to the factorization hypothesis: While the data of B → J/ψK∗ can be accommodated in the factorization approach with nonfactorizable terms χ A1 = χ A2 = χ V ≡ χ of order 15%, the result of R measurement requires that the nonfactorizable effect χ F1 on B → J/ψK be slightly larger than χ. Therefore, the effective parameter aeff 2 is not universal even for B → J/ψK(K∗) decays. We have generalized the considerations to B → ψ(2S)K(K∗) and Bs → J/ψφ and found that the predictions are in agreement with currently available data.
