Exclusive B -> K^* l^+ l^- decay with polarized K^* and new physics effects

Using the most general, model independent effective Hamiltonian, the branching ratio of the (B -> K^* l^+ l^-) decay, when K^* meson is longitudinally or transversally polarized, is presented. The dependence of the branching ratio on the new Wilson coefficients, when K^* meson is polarized, is studied. It is observed that the branching ratio is very sensitive to the vector and tensor type interactions, which will be useful in search of new physics beyond the Standard Model.Comment: 13 pp, 6 figures (postscript formatted), LaTex formatte

Heavy baryon--light vector meson couplings in QCD

The strong coupling constants of heavy baryons with light vector mesons are calculated in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules using the most general form of the interpolating currents for the heavy baryons. It is shown that the sextet--sextet, sextet--antitriplet and antitriplet--antitriplet transitions are described by one invariant function for each class of transitions. The values of the electric and magnetic coupling constants for these transitions are obtained.Comment: 16 Pages, 4 Figures and 7 Table

Double-lepton polarization asymmetries in the (B -> K l^+ l^-) decay beyond the Standard Model

General expressions for the double-lepton polarizations in the (B -> K l^+ l^-) decay are obtained, using model independent effective Hamiltonian, including all possible interactions. Correlations between the averaged double-lepton polarization asymmetries and the branching ratio, as well as, the averaged single-lepton polarization asymmetry are studied. It is observed that, study of the double-lepton polarization asymmetries can serve as a good test for establishing new physics beyond the Standard Model.Comment: 21 pages, 18 figures, LaTeX formatte

Strong transitions of decuplet to octet baryons and pseudoscalar mesons

The strong coupling constants of light pseudoscalar $\pi$, $K$ and $\eta$ mesons with decuplet--octet baryons are studied within light cone QCD sum rules, where $SU(3)_f$ symmetry breaking effects are taken into account. It is obtained that all coupling constants under the consideration are described by only one universal function even if $SU(3)_f$ symmetry breaking effects are switched into the game.Comment: 21 Pages, 2 Figures and 3 Table

General analysis of time evolution of decay spectrum in B^0 -> pi^+ pi^- l^+ l^-

Using the general, model independent form of effective Hamiltonian, the decay spectrum of B^0 -> pi^+ pi^- l^+ l^- decay is studied. The sensitivity of experimentally measurable asymmetries to the new Wilson coefficients and time is studied. It is observed that different asymmetries are sensitive to the new Wilson coefficients and they can serve as an efficient tool for establishing new physics beyond SM.Comment: 15 pp, 4 figures (postscript formatted), LaTex formatte

General analysis of lepton polarizations in rare B -> K^* l^+ l^- decay beyond the standard model

The general analysis of lepton polarization asymmetries in rare B -> K^* l^+ l^- decay is investigated. Using the most general, model independent effective Hamiltonian, the general expressions of the longitudinal, normal and transversal polarization asymmetries for l^- and l^+ and combinations of them are presented. The dependence of lepton polarizations and their combinations on new Wilson coefficients are studied in detail. Our analysis shows that the lepton polarization asymmetries are very sensitive to the scalar and tensor type interactions, which will be very useful in looking for new physics beyond the standard model.Comment: 29 pp, 15 figure
