Flavor SU(3) analysis of charmless B->PP decays

We perform a global fits to charmless $B \to PP$ decays which independently constrain the $(\bar\rho,\bar\eta)$ vertex of the unitarity triangle. The fitted amplitudes and phase are used to predict the branching ratios and CP asymmetries of all decay modes, including those of the $B_s$ system. Different schemes of SU(3) breaking in decay amplitude sizes are analyzed. The possibility of having a new physics contribution to $K \pi$ decays is also discussed.Comment: 3 pages, 2 figs.

U-Spin Tests of the Standard Model and New Physics

Within the standard model, a relation involving branching ratios and direct CP asymmetries holds for the B-decay pairs that are related by U-spin. The violation of this relation indicates new physics (NP). In this paper, we assume that the NP affects only the Delta S = 1 decays, and show that the NP operators are generally the same as those appearing in B -> pi K decays. The fit to the latest B -> pi K data shows that only one NP operator is sizeable. As a consequence, the relation is expected to be violated for only one decay pair: Bd -> K0 pi0 and Bs -> Kbar0 pi0.Comment: 12 pages, latex, no figures.

Study of B→K(∗)ℓ+ℓ−B\to K^{(*)} \ell^+\ell^- Decays in the Family Non-universal Z′Z' Models

In a combined investigation of the $B\to K^{(*)}\ell^+\ell^-$ decays, constraints on the related couplings in family non-universal $Z^{\prime}$ models are derived. We find that within the allowed parameter space, the recently observed forward-backward asymmetry in the $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ decay can be explained, by flipping the signs of the Wilson coefficients $C_9^{\rm eff}$ and $C_{10}$. With the obtained constraints, we also calculate the branching ratio of the $B_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$ decay. The upper bound of our prediction is near the upper bound given by CDF Collaboration recently.Comment: 19 pages, 4 figures, some errors corrected; Journal versio
