Polarizations of B V V in QCD factorization Based on collaborations with M.Beneke and J.Rohrer April 2008 1
Motivation B V V decays share the roles of B PP, PV decays in the determination of CKM matrix elements, especially the angles(phases): sin2β and cos2β from B J/ΨK ; sin2α from B ρρ; new physics search direct search for the unexpected large branching ratios of rare decays in the SM; more new physics sensitive observables in B V V : polarizations, phases (phase diffences) of helicity amplitudes April 2008 2
Plan of talk 1. Helicity amplitudes of B V V 2. Current experimental status 3. QCD factorization formula for B V V 4. Phenomenologies of B V V Tree-dominated decays (B ρρ) Penguin-dominated decays (B φk and ρk ) 5. Summary Based on the works collaborated with M.Beneke and J.

Conclusions and perspective QCD factorization loses predictive power for penguin-dominated B V V decays; Penguin weak annihilation could be an answer to polarization puzzle of B φk ; Enhanced electroweak penguin with negative-helicity could explain the polarization puzzles in B + ρ + K 0 and B + ρ 0 K +, but not for polarization of B 0 ρ 0 K 0 ; Polarization puzzles of B ρk are challenging for new physics model building; New measurements on polarizations in B AV and TV will shed more light on research of chirality structure of interaction, but QCD effects are still crucial; April 2008 26
