Improved Determination of the Electroweak Penguin Contribution to ǫ/ǫ in the Chiral Limit

چکیده
We perform a finite energy sum rule analysis of the flavor ud two-point VA current correlator, ∆Π(Q2). The analysis, which is performed using both the ALEPH and OPAL databases for the V-A spectral function, ∆ρ, allows us to extract the dimension six V-A OPE coefficient, a6, which is related to the matrix element of the electroweak penguin operator, Q8, by chiral symmetry. The result for a6 leads directly to the improved (chiral limit) determination ǫ′/ǫ = (−15.0 ± 2.7) ·10−4. Determination of higher dimension OPE contributions also allows us to perform an independent test using a low-scale constrained dispersive analysis, which provides a highly nontrivial consistency check of the results.

The Relevance of the Dipole Penguin Operators in ǫ′/ǫ
The standard model contribution to ǫ/ǫ of the magneticand electric-dipole penguin operators Q11 = gs 16π ms s̄ σμνt G a (1− γ5) d and Q12 = eQd 16π ms s̄ σμνF μν(1− γ5) d is discussed. While the electromagnetic penguin Q12 seems to have a vanishingly small matrix element, we find that the gluonic dipole operator Q11 may give a contribution to ǫ/ǫ comparable to that of other operators so far consi...
متن کاملGluon dipole penguin contributions to ǫ′/ǫ and CP violation in Hyperon decays in the Standard Model
We consider the gluon dipole penguin operator contributions to ǫ′/ǫ and CP violation in hyperon decays. It has been proposed by Bertolini et al. that the contribution to ǫ′/ǫ may be significant. We show that there is a cancellation in the leading order contribution and this contribution is actually suppressed by a factor of order O(mπ,m 2 K)/Λ 2. We find that the same operator also contributes ...

In this research we work with the effective Hamiltonian and the quark model. We investigate the decay rates of matter-antimatter of quark. We describe the effective Hamiltonian theory and apply this theory to the calculation of current-current ( ), QCD penguin ( ), magnetic dipole ( ) and electroweak penguin ( ) decay rates. The gluonic penguin structure of hadronic decays is studied thro...

This research, works with the effective Hamiltonian and the quark model. Using, the decay rates of matter-antimatter of b quark was investigated. We described the effective Hamiltonian theory which was applied to the calculation of current-current (Q1,2), QCD penguin (Q3,…,6), magnetic dipole (Q8) and electroweak penguin (Q7,…,10) decay rates. The gluonic penguin structure of hadronic decays ...
متن کاملAdditional Isospin-Breaking Effects in ǫ′/ǫ
Isospin-breaking effects, in particular those associated with electroweakpenguin contributions and π-η, η mixing, have long been known to affect the Standard Model prediction of ǫ/ǫ in a significant manner. We have found an heretofore unconsidered isospin-violating effect of importance; namely, the u-d quark mass difference can spawn |∆I| = 3/2 components in the matrix elements of the gluonic p...
