Towards a unitary Dalitz plot analysis of three-body hadronic B decays
A unitary model of the final state kaon pion interaction amplitudes in the B
--> K pi pi decays is constructed. The weak decay penguin amplitudes, derived
in QCD factorization, are supplemented by phenomenological contributions. The
strange kaon- pion scalar and vector form factors are used to calculate the
kaon pion effective mass and helicity angle distributions, branching ratios, CP
asymmetries and the phase difference between the B0 and anti B0 decay
amplitudes to K*(892) pi. The fit on the phenomenological parameters leads to a
good agreement with the experimental data, particularly for the
B --> K*(892) pi decays. However, our predicted B+- --> K*0(1430) pi+-,
K*0(1430)--> K+-pi-+ branching fraction is smaller than the results of the
Belle and BaBar collaborations, obtained from isobar model analyses. A new
parameterization of the S-wave kaon- pion effective mass distribution, which
can be used in future experimental Dalitz plot analyses, is proposed.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, contribution to Proc. Int. Europhysics Conference

Final state interactions and CP violation in B decays to three pseudoscalars
We study CP violation and final state interactions between pions and kaons in
B+, B-, B0 and bar B0 decays into K pi pi. The weak transition amplitudes
consist of two terms: the first part is derived in QCD factorization approach
and the second one is a phenomenological long-distance charming penguin
contribution. The final state K pi interactions in S- and P-waves are described
by strange scalar and vector form factors, respectively. These are determined
using a unitary coupled channel model together with chiral symmetry and
asymptotic QCD constraints. The final state interactions are dominated by
presence of the scalar K*0(1430) and the vector K*(892) resonances. We show
that additional charming penguin amplitudes are needed to reproduce the latest
experimental K pi effective mass and helicity angle distributions, branching
fractions and asymmetries obtained by Belle and BaBar collaborations.Comment: Talk given at XIII International Conference on Hadron Spectroscopy

CP violation and final state interactions in B --> K pi pi decays
Effects of CP violation and of final state interactions between pairs of
pseudoscalar mesons are studied in three-body B+, B-, B0 and antiB0 decays into
K pi pi. An alternative approach to the isobar model for three-body B decays is
proposed. It is based on the QCD factorization approximation and the knowledge
of the meson-meson form factors. Some phenomenological charming penguin
amplitudes are needed to describe the branching fractions, direct CP
asymmetries of the quasi-two-body B --> K*(892) pi and B --> K0*(1430) pi
decays as well as the K pi effective mass and the helicity angle distributions.
The experimental branching fractions for the B --> K0*(1430) pi decay, obtained
by the Belle and BaBar collaborations using the isobar model, are larger than
our predictions by about 52 per cent.Comment: 3 pages, contribution to International Europhysics Conference on High
