We use a non-zero gluon mass to regularize the infrared divergences in vertex corrections. The end-point singularities arising from spectator corrections are regularized and carefully estimated by the off-shellness of quarks.

Recently,the experimental measurements of the branching ratios and different polarization asymmetries for processes occurring through flavor-changing-charged current(b→cτν¯_(τ))transitions by BABAR,Belle,and ...Recently,the experimental measurements of the branching ratios and different polarization asymmetries for processes occurring through flavor-changing-charged current(b→cτν¯_(τ))transitions by BABAR,Belle,and LHCb have revealed some significant differences from the corresponding Standard Model(SM)predictions.This has triggered an interest to search for physics beyond the SM in the context of various new physics(NP)models and using the model-independent weak effective Hamiltonian(WEH).Assuming left-handed neutrinos,we add the dimension-six vector,(pseudo-)scalar,and tensor operators with complex Wilson coefficients(WCs)to the SM WEH.Using 60%,30%,and 10%constraints resulting from the branching ratio of B_(c)→τν¯_(τ),we reassess the parametric space of these new physics WCs accommodating the current anomalies based on the most recent HFLAV data of R_(τ/μ,e)(D)and R_(τ/μ,e)(D^(*))and Belle data of F_(L)(D^(*))and P_(τ)(D^(*)).We find that the allowed parametric region of left-handed scalar couplings strongly depends on the constraints of the B_(c)→τν¯_(τ)branching ratio,and the maximum pull from the SM predictions results from the<60%branching ratio limit.Also,the parametric region changes significantly if we extend the analysis by adding LHCb data of R_(τ/μ)(J/ψ)and R_(τ/ℓ)(Λ_(c)).Furthermore,due to the large uncertainties in the measurements of R_(τ/μ)(J/ψ)and R_(τ/ℓ)(X_(c)),we derive the sum rules which complement them with R_(τ/μ,e)(D)and R_(τ/μ,e)(D^(*)).Using the best-fit points of the new complex WCs along with the latest measurements of R_(τ/μ,e)(D(^(*))),we predict the numerical values of the observable R_(τ/ℓ)(Λ_(c)),R_(τ/μ)(J/ψ),and R_(τ/ℓ)(X_(c))from the sum rules.The simultaneous dependence of abovementioned physical observables on the NP WCs is established by plotting their correlation with R_(D) and R_(D^(*)),which are useful to discriminate between various NP scenarios.We find that the most significant impact of NP results from the WC C^(S)_(L)=4C^(T).Finally,we study the impact of these NP couplings on various angular and CP triple product asymmetries that could be measured in some ongoing and future experiments.The precise measurements of these observables are important to check the SM and extract the possible NP.展开更多

The usual assumption that space and time are continuous implies, indeed, that it should be possible to measure arbitrarily small intervals of space and time, but we ignore if that is true or not. It is thus more realistic to consider an extremely small “quantum of length” of yet unknown value <em>a</em>. It is only required to be a universal constant for all inertial frames, like<em> c</em> and <em>h</em>. This yields a logically consistent theory and accounts for elementary particles by means of four new quantum numbers. They define “particle states” in terms of modulations of wave functions at the smallest possible scale in space-time. The resulting classification of elementary particles accounts also for dark matter. Antiparticles are redefined, without needing negative energy states and recently observed “anomalies” can be explained.展开更多

文摘Recently,the experimental measurements of the branching ratios and different polarization asymmetries for processes occurring through flavor-changing-charged current(b→cτν¯_(τ))transitions by BABAR,Belle,and LHCb have revealed some significant differences from the corresponding Standard Model(SM)predictions.This has triggered an interest to search for physics beyond the SM in the context of various new physics(NP)models and using the model-independent weak effective Hamiltonian(WEH).Assuming left-handed neutrinos,we add the dimension-six vector,(pseudo-)scalar,and tensor operators with complex Wilson coefficients(WCs)to the SM WEH.Using 60%,30%,and 10%constraints resulting from the branching ratio of B_(c)→τν¯_(τ),we reassess the parametric space of these new physics WCs accommodating the current anomalies based on the most recent HFLAV data of R_(τ/μ,e)(D)and R_(τ/μ,e)(D^(*))and Belle data of F_(L)(D^(*))and P_(τ)(D^(*)).We find that the allowed parametric region of left-handed scalar couplings strongly depends on the constraints of the B_(c)→τν¯_(τ)branching ratio,and the maximum pull from the SM predictions results from the<60%branching ratio limit.Also,the parametric region changes significantly if we extend the analysis by adding LHCb data of R_(τ/μ)(J/ψ)and R_(τ/ℓ)(Λ_(c)).Furthermore,due to the large uncertainties in the measurements of R_(τ/μ)(J/ψ)and R_(τ/ℓ)(X_(c)),we derive the sum rules which complement them with R_(τ/μ,e)(D)and R_(τ/μ,e)(D^(*)).Using the best-fit points of the new complex WCs along with the latest measurements of R_(τ/μ,e)(D(^(*))),we predict the numerical values of the observable R_(τ/ℓ)(Λ_(c)),R_(τ/μ)(J/ψ),and R_(τ/ℓ)(X_(c))from the sum rules.The simultaneous dependence of abovementioned physical observables on the NP WCs is established by plotting their correlation with R_(D) and R_(D^(*)),which are useful to discriminate between various NP scenarios.We find that the most significant impact of NP results from the WC C^(S)_(L)=4C^(T).Finally,we study the impact of these NP couplings on various angular and CP triple product asymmetries that could be measured in some ongoing and future experiments.The precise measurements of these observables are important to check the SM and extract the possible NP.

文摘We present the angular distribution of the four-fold B→ρ(→ππ)µ^(+)µ^(−) and B→a_(1)(→ρ_(Ⅱ).⊥π)µ^(+)µ^(−) decays in the Standard Model and family non-universal Z'model.At the quark level,these decays are govered by the b→dµ^(+)µ^(−) transition.Along with different angular observables,we provide predictions of differential branching ra.tios,forward-backward asymmetry,and longitudinal polarization fractions of ρ and a_(1) mesons.Our analysis showsthat the signatures of the fimily non-universal Z’model are more distinct in the observables associated with the B→ρ(→ππ)µ^(+)µ^(−) decay than in those associated with the B→a_(1)(→ρ_(Ⅱ).⊥π)µ^(+)µ^(−) decay.Future measurements ofthe predicted angular observables,both at current and fiuture high energy colliders,will provide useful complement.ary data required to clarify the structure of the family non-universal Z' model in |△b|=△d|=1 processes.
文摘We justify and extend the standard model of elementary particle physics by generalizing the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. The usual assumption that space and time are continuous implies, indeed, that it should be possible to measure arbitrarily small intervals of space and time, but we ignore if that is true or not. It is thus more realistic to consider an extremely small “quantum of length” of yet unknown value <em>a</em>. It is only required to be a universal constant for all inertial frames, like<em> c</em> and <em>h</em>. This yields a logically consistent theory and accounts for elementary particles by means of four new quantum numbers. They define “particle states” in terms of modulations of wave functions at the smallest possible scale in space-time. The resulting classification of elementary particles accounts also for dark matter. Antiparticles are redefined, without needing negative energy states and recently observed “anomalies” can be explained.

文摘We study the Bc,u,d→X(3872)P decays in the perturbative QCD(PQCD)approach,involving the puzzling resonance X(3872),where P represents a light pseudoscalar meson(K orπ).Assuming X(3872)to be a 1++charmonium state,we obtain the following results.(a)The branching ratios of the Bc+→X(3872)π+and Bc+→X(3872)K+decays are consistent with the results predicted by the covariant light-front approach within errors;however,they are larger than those given by the generalized factorization approach.(b)The branching ratio of the B+→X(3872)K+decay is predicted as(3.8-1.0+1.1)×10-4,which is smaller than the previous PQCD calculation result but still slightly larger than the upper limits set by Belle and BaBar.Hence,we suggest that the B0,+→X(3872)K0,+decays should be precisely measured by the LHCb and Belle II experiments to help probe the inner structure of X(3872).(c)Compared with the Bu,d→X(3872)K decays,the Bu,d→X(3872)πdecays have significantly smaller branching ratios,which drop to values as low as 10-6.(d)The direct CP violations of these considered decays are small(10-3~10-2)because the penguin contributions are loop suppressed compared to the tree contributions.The mixing-induced CP violation of the B→X(3872)K0S decay is highly consistent with the current world average value sin 2β=(69.9±1.7)%.Experimentally testing the results for the branching ratios and CP violations,including the implicit SU(3)and isospin symmetries of these decays,helps probe the nature of X(3872).

文摘The role of the triangle mechanism in the decay processes B_(0)→J/ψK^(0)f_(0)→J/ψK^(0)π^(+)π^(-)and B_(0)→J/ψK^(0)a_(0)→J/ψK^(0)π^(0)ηis probed.In these processes,the triangle singularity appears from the decay of B_(0)intoJ/ψ∅K^(0),and then,∅decays intoK^(0)K^(0)andK^(0)K^(0)merged into f_(0)or a_(0),which finally decay intoπ^(+)π^(-)andπ^(0)η,respectively.We find that this mechanism leads to a triangle singularity around M_(inv)(K^(0)f_(0)(a_(0)))≈1520 MeV and gives sizable branching fractions Br(B_(0)→J/ψK^(0)f_(0)→J/ψK^(0)π^(+)π^(-))=7.67×10^(-7)and Br(B_(0)→J/ψK^(0)a_(0)→J/ψK^(0)π^(0)η)=1.42×10^(-7).This investigation can help us obtain the information of the scalar mesonf_(0)(980)or a_(0)(980).

文摘Within the framework of perturbative QCD factorization,we investigate the nonfactorizable contributions to the factorization-forbidden quasi-two-body decays B_((s))→h_((χ)_(c0))→hπ^(+)π^(-)(K^(+)K^(-))with h=π,K.We compare our predicted branching ratios for the B_(()(s))→K_(χc0)→Kπ^(+)π-(K^(+)K^(-))decay with available experiment data as well as predictions by other theoretical studies.The branching ratios of these decays are consistent with data and other theoretical predictions.However,in the Cabibbo-suppressed decays B_((s))→h_((χ)_(c0))→hπ^(+)π^(-)(K^(+)K^(-))with h=K^(0),π,the values of the branching ratios are of the order of 10^(-7)and 10^(-8).The ratio R_((χ)_(c0))between the decays B^(+)→π^(+)χ_(c0)→π^(+)π^(+)π^(-)and B^(+)→K^(+)χc0→K^(+)π^(+)π^(-)and the distribution of branching ratios for different decay modes in invariant mass are considered in this study.
文摘Based on the assumption of a two-quark structure of the scalar meson f0（980） ,we calculate the branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries for the four B → f0（980） π and B → f0（980） η^（＇） decays by employing the perturbative QCD（pQCD） factorization approach. The leading order pQCD predictions for branching ratios are,Br（B^-→ f0（980） π^-） ～ 2.5×10^-6,Br（Bˉ^0 → f0（980） π^0） ～ 2.6×10^-7,Br（Bˉ^0 → f0（980） η） ～ 2.5×10^-7 and Br（Bˉ^0 → f0（980） η ） ～ 6.7×10^-7,which are consistent with both the QCD factorization predictions and the experimental upper limits.

文摘By employing the perturbative QCD （pQCD） factorization approach, we calculate the full leading and the partial next-to-leading order （NLO） contributions to the seven B →πη（′） and η（′）η（′） decays. For B^＋→ π＋η（′） decays, the pQCD predictions for their decay rates agree very well with the data after the inclusion of the small NLO contributions. For neutral decays, the pQCD predictions are also consistent with the experimental upper limits and can be tested by the LHC experiments. The measured value of dir .Acp^dir（π＋η）= 19±7% can also be accommodated by the pQCD approach.

文摘The physical state of ρ−ω−φ mesons can be mixed using the unitary matrix.The decay processes ω→π^(+)π^(−)and φ→π^(+)π^(−)originate from isospin symmetry breaking.The ρ−ω,ρ−φ,and ω−φ interferences lead to a resonance contribution to produce strong phases.CP violation is considered from isospin symmetry breaking due to the new strong phase of the first order.CP violation can be enhanced greatly for the decay process B^(0)→π^(+)π^(−)η^((′))when the invariant masses of π^(+)π^(−) pairs are in the area around the ω resonance range and φ resonance range in perturbative QCD.We also discuss the possibility of searching for the predicted CP violation at the LHC.

文摘We study the CP-averaged branching fractions and the CP-violating asymmetries in the pure annihilation decays of B^(s)_(0)→a^(+)_(0)a^(−)_(0)and B^(0)_(d)→K^(∗+)_(0)K^(∗−)_(0),where a_(0)[K^(∗)_(0)]denotes the scalar a_(0)(980)and a_(0)(1450)[K^(∗)_(0)(800)(orκ)and K^(∗)_(0)(1430)],with the perturbative QCD factorization approach under the assumption of two-quark structure for the a_(0)and K^(∗)_(0)states.The numerical results show that the branching ratios of the B^(0)_(d)→K^(∗+)_(0)K^(∗−)_(0)decays are in the order of 10^(−6),while the decay rates of the B^(s)_(0)→a^(+)_(0)a^(−)_(0)modes are in the order of 10−5.In light of the measured modes with the same quark components in the pseudoscalar sector,namely,B^(0)_(d)→K^(+)k_(-)and B^(0)_(s)→π^(+)π_(−),the predictions for the considered decay modes in this work are expected to be measured at the Large Hadron Collider beauty and/or Belle-Ⅱexperiments in the(near)future.Meanwhile,it is of great interest to find that the twist-3 distribution amplitudesφ^(S)andφ^(T)with inclusion of the Gegenbauer polynomials for the scalar a_(0)(1450)and K^(∗)_(0)(1430)states in scenario 2 contribute slightly to the branching ratios while significantly to the CP violations in the B^(0)_(d)→K^(∗)_(0)(1430)+K^(∗)_(0)(1430)−and B^(0)_(s)→a_(0)(1450)+a_(0)(1450)−decays,which indicates that,compared to the asymptoticφ^(S)andφ^(T),these Gegenbauer polynomials could change the strong phases evidently in these pure annihilation decay channels.These predictions await for the future confirmation experimentally,which could further provide useful information to help explore the inner structure of the scalars and shed light on the annihilation decay mechanism.

文摘In this paper,we calculated the B →（J/ψ,ηc） K decays in the perturbative QCD（pQCD） factorization approach with the inclusion of the partial next-to-leading order（NLO） contributions. With the inclusion of the significant enhancement from the NLO vertex corrections,the NLO pQCD predictions for the branching ratios agree with the data within 2σ errors：Br（B0 → J/ψK0） = 5.2-＋32..58×10-4,Br（B＋ → J/ψK＋） = 5.6-＋32..79×10-4,Br（B0 →ηcK0） = 5.5-＋22..30 × 10-4,Br（B＋ →ηcK＋） = 5.9-＋22..51 × 10-4.
