Non-factorizable contributions in nonleptonic weak interactions of K mesons

چکیده
K → ππ, KL-KS mass difference and KL → γγ(∗) are studied systematically by decomposing their amplitude into a sum of factorizable and nonfactorizable ones. The former is calculated by using the naive factorization while the latter is assumed to be dominated by dynamical contributions of various hadron states. Non-factorizable amplitudes for the K → ππ decays are estimated by using a hard pion approximation in the infinite momentum frame. Long distance non-factorizable contributions to the KL-KS mass difference is dominated by those of pseudo scalar meson poles and ππ intermediate states. The amplitude for the KL → γγ(∗) is given by a sum of pole contributions of pseudo scalar mesons in the s-channel and K meson in the crossed channel. By fitting the results on the K → ππ, KL-KS mass difference and KL → γγ to the observations, values of unknown parameters involved are estimated and then, by using the resulting values of these parameters, the form factor for the Dalitz decays of KL and their rates are predicted. The results are compared with the existing data.

Nonfactorizable Contributions to Nonleptonic Weak Decays of Heavy Mesons
Nonfactorizable contributions to exclusive two-body nonleptonic weak decays of heavy mesons arising from color octet currents, characterized by the parameter r2, are extracted from the data. It is found that r2 is equal to ∼ −0.67 , −(0.9 ∼ 1.1), − (1.2 ∼ 1.3), ∼ 0.36 respectively for D → K̄π, K̄π, K̄ρ, B̄ → Dπ decays. As expected, soft-gluon effects become stronger when the decay particles are les...
متن کاملNon-factorizable contributions in hadronic weak decays of charm mesons
Two body decays of charm mesons are studied by describing their amplitude in terms of a sum of factorizable and non-factorizable ones. The former is estimated by using a naive factorization while the latter is calculated by using a hard pseudo-scalar-meson approximation. The hard pseudo-scalar-meson amplitude is given by a sum of the so-called equal-time commutator term and surface term which c...

Cabibbo-allowed nonleptonic weak decays of charmed baryons Λ + c , Ξ 0A c , Ξ +A c and Ω 0 c into an octet baryon and a pseudoscalar meson are analyzed. The nonfactorizable contributions are evaluated under pole approximation, and it turns out that the s-wave amplitudes are dominated by the low-lying 2 − resonances, while pwave ones governed by the ground-state 2 + poles. The MIT bag model is e...

We investigate nonfactorizable contributions to ππ → D decay modes. We perform isospin analysis of the nonfactorizable contributions to these decays. Obtaining the factorizable contributions from spectator-quark diagrams using 3 = C N , we determine nonfactorizable amplitudes for these decays and predict their branching ratios. Keywords—Mesons, Branching Ratios, Decay Amplitudes, Heavy Flavor M...
متن کاملAnalysis of the QCD - improved factorization in B → J / ψK
We consider the exclusive decay B → J/ψK using the QCD-improved factorization method in the heavy quark limit. It is shown that the decay amplitude is factorizable in this limit and nonfactorizable contributions are calculable from first principles in perturbation theory. Also the spectator contributions at order αs are finite and suppressed in the heavy quark limit. We present the result at ne...
