Lattice QCD calculation of the electroweak box diagrams for the kaon semileptonic decays

2021

We present a lattice QCD calculation of the axial $\gamma W$-box diagrams relevant for the kaon semileptonic decays. We utilize a recently proposed method, which connects the electroweak radiative corrections in Sirlin's representation to that in chiral perturbation theory. It allows us to use the axial $\gamma W$-box correction in the SU(3) limit to obtain the low energy constants for chiral perturbation theory. From first principles our results confirm the previously used low energy constants provided by the minimal resonance model with a significant reduction in uncertainties.

First-Principles Calculation of Electroweak Box Diagrams from Lattice QCD.

2020

We present the first realistic lattice QCD calculation of the $\gamma W$-box diagrams relevant for beta decays. The nonperturbative low-momentum integral of the $\gamma W$ loop is calculated using a lattice QCD simulation, complemented by the perturbative QCD result at high momenta. Using the pion semileptonic decay as an example, we demonstrate the feasibility of the method. By using domain wall fermions at the physical pion mass with multiple lattice spacings and volumes, we obtain the axial $\gamma W$-box correction to the semileptonic pion decay, $\Box_{\gamma W}^{VA}\big|_{\pi}=2.830(11)_{\mathrm{stat}}(26)_{\mathrm{sys}}\times10^{-3}$, with the total uncertainty controlled at the leve…
