By employing the QCD factorization approach, we calculated the next-to-leading order new physics contributions to the branching ratios, CP asymmetries, isospin and U-spin symmetry breaking of the exclusive decays
(
), induced by the charged Higgs penguins in general two-Higgs-doublet models. Within the considered parameter space, we found that (a) the new physics corrections to the observables are generally small in model I and model III-A, moderate in model II, but large in model III-B; (b) from the well measured branching ratios and upper limits, a lower bound of MH > 200 GeV in model II was obtained, while the allowed range of MH in model III-B is
GeV; these bounds are comparable with those from the inclusive
decay; (c) the NLO Wilson coefficient C7(mb) in model III-B is positive and disfavored by the measured value of isospin symmetry breaking
, but it still cannot be excluded if we take the large errors into account; (d) the CP asymmetry
in model III-B has an opposite sign to the one in the standard model (SM), which may be used as a good observable to distinguish the SM from model III-B; (e) the isospin symmetry breaking
is less than
in the region of
preferred by the global fit result, but it can be as large as 20 to
in the regions of

. The SM and model III-B predictions for
are opposite in sign for small or large values of the CKM angles; (f) the U-spin symmetry breaking
in the SM and the general two-Higgs-doublet models is generally small in size:

Using results on soft-collinear factorization for inclusive B-meson decay distributions, a systematic study of the partial
decay rate with a cut
on photon energy is performed. For values of E
0 below about 1.9 GeV, the rate can be calculated without reference to shape functions using a multi-scale operator product expansion (MSOPE). The transition from the shape-function region to the MSOPE region is studied analytically. The resulting prediction for the
branching ratio depends on three large scales: m
b
,
, and
. Logarithms associated with these scales are resummed at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic order. While power corrections in
turn out to be small, the sensitivity to the scale
GeV (for
GeV) introduces significant perturbative uncertainties, which so far have been ignored. The new theoretical prediction for the
branching ratio with
GeV is
, where the first error is an estimate of perturbative uncertainties and the second one reflects uncertainties in input parameters. With this cut
of all events are contained. When this fraction is combined with the previously best prediction for the total decay rate, one obtains
, with a somewhat less conservative estimate of parametric uncertainties. The implications of larger theory uncertainties for new physics searches are briefly explored with the example of the type-II two-Higgs-doublet model, for which the lower bound on the charged-Higgs mass is reduced compared with previous estimates to approximately 200 GeV at 95% confidence level.Received: 18 September 2004, Revised: 18 January 2005, Published online: 21 February 2005 相似文献

is negative. The Grossman-Quinn bound is rediscussed. A close form expression is given for

We discuss the time-dependent CP asymmetry of the decay
in an extension of the standard model with both a two Higgs doublet and additional fourth-generation quarks. We show that, although the standard model with a two Higgs doublet and the standard model with fourth-generation quarks alone are not likely to largely change the effective
from the decay
, the model with both an additional Higgs doublet and fourth-generation quarks can easily account for the possible large negative value of
without conflicting with other experimental constraints. In this model, additional large CP violating effects may arise from the flavor-changing Yukawa interactions between neutral Higgs bosons and the heavy fourth-generation down type quark, which can modify the QCD penguin contributions. With the constraints obtained from
processes such as
and

as large as - 0.4 in the CP asymmetry of

Approximately 438 pb-1 of e + e- data from the OPAL detector, taken with the LEP collider running at centre-of-mass energies of 192-209 GeV, are analyzed to search for evidence of chargino pair production,

We analyze the pion electromagnetic, charged-current, and
transition form factors at timelike momentum transfers q,
GeV2, using a dispersion approach. We discuss in detail the propagator matrix of the photon-vector meson system and define certain reduced amplitudes, or vertex functions, describing the coupling of this system to final states. We then apply the derived analytic expressions to the analysis of the recent

data. We find the reduced amplitudes for the coupling of the photon and vector mesons to two pseudoscalars to be constant, independent of s, in the range considered, indicating a freezing of the amplitudes for

Tau lepton decays with open strangeness in the final state are measured with the OPAL detector at LEP to determine the strange hadronic spectral function of the
lepton. The decays
,
and
with final states consisting of neutral and charged kaons and pions have been studied. The invariant mass distributions of
of these final states have been experimentally determined. Monte Carlo simulations have been used for the remaining
and for the strange final states including
mesons. The reconstructed strange final states, corrected for resolution effects and detection efficiencies, yield the strange spectral function of the
lepton. The moments of the spectral function and the ratio of strange to non-strange moments, which are important input parameters for theoretical analyses, are determined. Furthermore, the branching fractions

This admixture will give a significant contribution to the decays.Received: 29 August 2003, Revised: 17 January 2004, Published online: 19 March 2004Corresponding author: Y.D. Yang 相似文献

The CP asymmetries of the decay
, which originates from
flavor-changing neutral-current processes, and its CP-averaged branching ratio BR
offer interesting avenues to explore flavor physics. We show that we may characterize this channel, within the standard model, in a theoretically clean manner through a surface in observable space. In order to extract the relevant information from BR
, further information is required, which is provided by the
system and the SU(3) flavor symmetry, where we include the leading factorizable SU(3)-breaking corrections and discuss how experimental insights into non-factorizable effects can be obtained. We point out that the standard model implies a lower bound for BR
, which is very close to its current experimental upper bound, thereby suggesting that this decay should soon be observed. Moreover, we explore the implications for color suppression in the
system, and convert the data for these modes in a peculiar standard-model pattern for the CP-violating
observables.Received: 3 August 2004, Published online: 15 November 2004 相似文献

The double-diffractive production of
and
mesons, with a rapidity gap on either side, is studied, using both the Regge formalism and the perturbative QCD approach. Due to the rather low scale, the exclusive double-diffractive process
is predicted to dominate, whereas the probability that the incoming protons dissociate is expected to be relatively small. We evaluate the corresponding
production cross sections at the Tevatron and LHC energies. For the double-diffractive process with proton dissociation, it is possible to select events with large transverse momenta transferred through the rapidity gaps, by measuring the transverse energy,
, flows in the proton fragmentation regions. Then the large
provides a scale to justify the use of perturbative QCD, and to allow a spin-parity analysis of the centrally produced system to be performed, by studying the azimuthal angular correlations between the directions of the forward and backward
flows. The central production of the new X(3872) charmonium state is considered.Received: 24 March 2004, Published online: 11 May 2004 相似文献
