A supersymmetric resolution of the anomaly in charmless nonleptonic B-decays Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • We examine the large branching ratio for the process B K from the standpoint of R parity violating supersymmetry. We have given all possible slashed R signp contributions to B K amplitudes. We find that only two pairs of -type slashed R signp couplings can solve this problem after satisfying all other experimental bounds. We also analyze those modes where these couplings can appear, e.g., B K0, B,0 K * ,0(), B K etc., and predict their branching ratios. Further, one of these two pairs of couplings is found to lower the branching ratio of B BK, thereby allowing larger 1/Nc. This allows us to fit B K and B , which could not be done in the SM framework. 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
