23 Oct 2006 | | Abstract: | We calculate the most interesting rare and CP-violating K and B decays in the Littlest Higgs model with T-parity. We give a collection of Feynman rules including v^2/f^2 contributions that are presented here for the first time and could turn out to be useful also for applications outside flavour physics. We adopt a model-independent parameterization of rare decays in terms of the gauge independent functions X_i,Y_i,Z_i (i=K,d,s), which is in particular useful for the study of the breaking of the universality between K, B_d and B_s systems through non-MFV interactions. Performing the calculation in the unitary and ’t Hooft-Feynman gauge, we find that the final result contains a divergence which signals some sensitivity to the ultraviolet completion of the theory. Including an estimate of this contribution, we calculate the branching ratios for the decays $K^+ opi^+
uar
u$, $K_L opi^0
uar
u$, $B_{s,d} o mu^+mu^-$, $B o X_{s,d}
uar
u$, $K_L opi^0ell^+ell^-$ and $B o X_{s,d}ell^+ell^-$, paying particular attention to non-MFV contributions present in the model.
Imposing all available constraints we find that the decay rates for $B_{s,d} o mu^+ mu^-$ and $B o X_{s,d}
u ar
u$ can be enhanced by at most 50% and 35% relative to the SM values, while $Br(K^+ opi^+
uar
u)$ and $Br(K_L opi^0
uar
u)$ can be both as high as $5 cdot 10^{-10}$. Significant enhancements of the decay rates $K_L opi^0ell^+ell^-$ are also possible. Simultaneously, the CP-asymmetries $S_{psi phi}$ and $A^s_ ext{SL}$ can be enhanced by an order of magnitude, while the electroweak penguin effects in $B o pi K$ turn out to be small, in agreement with the recent data. | | Source: | arXiv, hep-ph/0610298 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
