The role of electroweak penguin and magnetic dipole QCD penguin on hadronic b Quark Decays
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 ...

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...

In this research, we are going to study the QCD penguin structure and calculate the second order approximation. The amplitude of decays related to QCD penguin in the quark model up to the first and second orders were calculated. We calculated the amplitude of QCD penguin on lowest order of αs for the first order of the decay processes b→qkg→qkqiqj and for the second order of the decay processes...
متن کاملNon - factorizable terms , heavy quark masses , and semileptonic decays of D and B mesons
Non-factorizable terms, heavy quark masses, and semileptonic decays of D and B mesons. Abstract The non-factorizable terms in the operator product expansion have been recognized as one of theoretical obstacles for precision determination of the mixing parameter V ub from semileptonic B decays. It is pointed out here that the recent CLEO data on the parameters of the heavy quark expansion λ 1 an...
متن کاملTheory of Semi– and Nonleptonic Decays of Heavy Mesons
I review some of the recent developments in the theoretical description of weak inclusive decays of heavy mesons. The topics cover the value of |Vcb| as extracted from semileptonic inclusive decays and a short discussion of the theoretical errors. I also present the results of a recent calculation of next–to–leading order corrections to nonleptonic inclusive B decays which allows an improved pr...
