We propose a new method to extract the CKM phase angle γ(≡ φ3) from the isospin analysis in B → Kπ decays only. Unlike previously proposed methods, we do not employ flavor SU (3) symmetry, so that this method is free from the hadronic uncertainty coming from the SU (3) breaking effect. Neither we adopt any Dalitz-plot analysis, which may involve multiple strong phases and large final state interactions. Since no theoretical assumption, except the isospin relations, is imposed on B → Kπ decays, this method will work well, regardless of possible new physics effects unless the isospin relations do not hold. Since the mixing induced CP asymmetry SKSπ0 plays a crucial role in this method, more precise measurement on SKSπ0 in future experiments will be greatly helpful to extract γ accurately. Using current experimental data for B → Kπ including SKSπ0, we extract γ within [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text].

Charm meson decay-dynamics has been extensively studied in the last decade. Dalitz plot analysis has revealed as a powerful tool for investigating effects of resonant substructures, interference patterns and final-state-interactions in the charm sector. Recent results from FOCUS on D+ and Ds decays will be presented with particular emphasis on the decay amplitude formalism; Isobar model and K-matrix model results will be compared and discussed.

AbstractWe consider two-body and quasi-two-body decays of the type $$f_1 \rightarrow f_2 B$$f1→f2B, where $$f_1$$f1 and $$f_2$$f2 are spin-1/2 fermions and B a spin-0 or spin-1 boson. After recalling the non-covariant formalism for decay amplitudes, we derive the expression of the differential decay width and of the polarizations of the final spinning particles, both on- and off-shell. We find an intriguing geometrical interpretation of the results about the polarization. We also illustrate some methods for measuring the polarizations of the resonances and for optimizing data analysis. Then we propose applications to semi-leptonic weak decays, with a major attention to the T-odd component of the polarization; this may help to find, simultaneously, possible time-reversal violations and hints to physics beyond the standard model. We suggest also a CPT test. Last, we discuss some T-odd observables for the production process of $$f_1$$f1 and for the study of the strong final state interactions of non-leptonic decays.

The direct CP asymmetry (aCP) for the process B+→π+K0 is studied including the contributions arising from both the QCD and electroweak penguins and the long range inelastic final state interactions (IFSI). The usually neglected space-like penguins and the annihilation contributions are also taken into account in our analysis. The next-to-leading order low energy effective Hamiltonian and BSW model are used to evaluate the weak transition matrix elements. The effect of space-like and annihilation diagrams are studied using the Lepage and Brodsky model. We found that as a result of FSI, the CP asymmetry and the branching ratio are suppressed slightly in comparison to no FSI situation, but the obtained branching ratio with FSI agrees very well with the present experimental value. With our predicted value of aCP~1010, charged B mesons are required to resolve the CP asymmetry experimentally at 3σ level.

Abstract We study the observability of new interactions which modify Higgs-pair production via vector-boson fusion processes at the LHC and at future proton-proton colliders. In an effective-Lagrangian approach, we explore in particular the effect of the operator $$ {h}^2{W}_{\mu \nu}^a{W}^{a,\mu \nu} $$ h 2 W μν a W a , μν , which describes the interaction of the Higgs boson with transverse vector-boson polarization modes. By tagging highly boosted Higgs bosons in the final state, we determine projected bounds for the coefficient of this operator at the LHC and at a future 27 TeV or 100 TeV collider. Taking into account unitarity constraints, we estimate the new-physics discovery potential of Higgs pair production in this channel.
