Long distance chiral corrections in B meson amplitudes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss the chiral corrections to fB and BB with particular emphasis on determining the portion of the correction that arises from long distance physics. For very small pion and kaon masses all of the usual corrections are truly long distance, while for larger masses the long distance portion decreases. These chiral corrections have been used to extrapolate lattice calculations towards the physical region of lighter masses. We show in particular that the chiral extrapolation is better behaved if only the long distance portion of the correction is used. IFIC/03-09 FTUV/03-0409

Higher twist light-cone distribution amplitudes of vector mesons in QCD
Amplitudes of hard (light-cone dominated) exclusive processes in QCD are expressed by the factorization formulae, which separate the short-distance dynamics from the longdistance one[1]. For those processes producing a (light) vector meson V (= ρ, ω,K, φ) in the final state, like exclusive semileptonic or radiative B decays (B → V eν, B → V + γ) and the hard electroproduction of vector mesons (...
متن کاملCorrections to the Hadronic Matrix Elements of Q 6 and Q 8 in K → ππ Decays ∗
We calculate long-distance contributions to the amplitudes A(K0 → 2π, I) induced by the gluon and the electroweak penguin operators Q6 and Q8, respectively. We use the 1/Nc expansion within the effective chiral lagrangian for pseudoscalar mesons. In addition, we adopt a modified prescription for the identification of meson momenta in the chiral loop corrections in order to achieve a consistent ...
متن کاملThe ∆i = 1/2 Rule and Ε ′ /ε
The ∆I = 1/2 rule and direct CP violation ε ′ /ε in kaon decays are studied within the framework of the effective Hamiltonian approach in conjunction with generalized factorization for hadronic matrix elements. Conventionally the K → ππ matrix elements are evaluated under the factorization assumption so that O(µ) is factorized into the product of two matrix elements of single currents, governed...
متن کاملNew Analysis of the ∆ I = 1 / 2 Rule in the 1 / N c Expansion for K → ππ Decays ∗
We analyze long-distance contributions to the K → ππ amplitudes relevant for the ∆I = 1/2 selection rule in the framework of the 1/Nc expansion. We use a modified prescription for the identification of meson momenta in the chiral loop corrections to gain a consistent matching with the short-distance part. Our approach involves a separation of non-factorizable and factorizable 1/Nc corrections. ...
متن کاملRecent Results in Chiral Perturbation Theory for Mesons Containing a Single Heavy Quark
Chiral symmetry and heavy quark symmetry constrain the interactions of mesons containing a single heavy quark with low-momentum pions. Chiral corrections to the Isgur-Wise function for Bs → D s versus B → D semileptonic decay, the ratio of heavy meson decay constants fDs/fD or fBs/fB, the amplitudes for Bs−Bs versus B0−B 0 mixing, and the heavy meson mass splittings are calculated in chiral per...
