Nonlocal chiral quark models with wavefunction renormalization: Sigma properties andπ−πscattering parameters
2008
We analyze the sigma meson mass and width together with the pion-pion scattering parameters in the context of nonlocal chiral quark models with wave function renormalization (WFR). We consider both nonlocal interactions based on the frequently used exponential form factor, and on fits to the quark mass and renormalization functions obtained in lattice calculations. In the case of the sigma properties, we obtain results which are less dependent on the parametrization than in the standard local Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, and which are in reasonable agreement with the recently reported empirical values. We also show that the inclusion of the WFR tend to improve the description of the $\ensurema…
Study of the semileptonic decays B→π, D→π and D→K
2006
The semileptonic decay B->pi is studied starting from a simple quark model that takes into account the effect of the B* resonance. A novel, multiply subtracted, Omnes dispersion relation has been implemented to extend the predictions of the quark model to all q^2 values accesible in the physical decay. By comparison to the experimental data, we extract |V_ub|=0.0034 +/- 0.0003(exp.) +/- 0.0007(theory). As a further test of the model, we have also studied D->pi and D->K decays for which we get good agreement with experiment.
Measurement of the Semileptonic Branching Ratio ofBs0to an Orbitally ExcitedDs**State:Br(Bs0→Ds1−(2536)μ+νX)
2009
In a data sample of approximately 1.3 fb-1 collected with the D0 detector between 2002 and 2006, the orbitally excited charm state D_s1(2536) has been observed with a measured mass of 2535.7 +/- 0.6 (stat) +/- 0.5 (syst) MeV via the decay mode B0_s -> D_s1(2536) mu nu X. A first measurement is made of the branching ratio product Br(b(bar) -> D_s1(2536) mu nu X).Br(D_s1(2536)->D* K0_S). Assuming that D_s1(2536) production in semileptonic decay is entirely from B0_s, an extraction of the semileptonic branching ratio Br(B0_s -> D_s1(2536) mu nu X) is made.
Exclusive semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of the Bc meson
2006
We study exclusive nonleptonic and semileptonic decays of the Bc-meson within a relativistic constituent quark model previously developed by us. For the nonleptonic decays we use the factorizing approximation. We update our model parameters by using new experimental data for the mass and the lifetime of the Bc meson and the leptonic decay constants of the D-meson. We calculate the branching ratios for a large set of exclusive nonleptonic and semileptonic decays of the $B_c$ meson and compare our results with the results of other studies. As a guide for further experimental exploration we provide explicit formulas for the full angular decay distributions in the cascade decays Bc^- => J/ps…
Semileptonic decays ofBcmesons into charmonium states in a relativistic quark model
2005
We use the framework of a relativistic constituent quark model to study the semileptonic transitions of the ${B}_{c}$ meson into $(\overline{c}c)$ charmonium states where $(\overline{c}c)={\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c}(^{1}S_{0})$, $J/\ensuremath{\psi}(^{3}S_{1})$, ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c0}(^{3}P_{0})$, ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c1}(^{3}P_{1})$, ${h}_{c}(^{1}P_{1})$, ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c2}(^{3}P_{2})$, $\ensuremath{\psi}(^{3}D_{2})$. We compute the ${q}^{2}$ dependence of all relevant form factors and give predictions for their semileptonic ${B}_{c}$ decay modes including also their $\ensuremath{\tau}$ modes. We derive a formula for the polar angle distribution of the charged lepton in the $(l{\ens…
Evaluation of the flavor-changing vertexb→s+Husing the Breitenlohner-Maison-'t Hooft-Veltmanγ5scheme
1990
We reevaluate the one-loop-induced flavor-changing vertex {ital b}(bottom){r arrow}{ital s}(strange)+{ital H}(Higgs boson) using the Breitenlohner--Maison--'t Hooft--Veltman {gamma}{sub 5} scheme. Our result agrees with the result of previous calculations that employed a naive anticommuting {gamma}{sub 5} if one consistently employs left-chiral fermion fields in the perturbation expansion.
