Two body non-leptonic decays in quark model with factorization ansatz
The two body non-leptonic decays are analyzed in factorization
approximation, using quark model, as a free parameter. It is
shown that the experimental branching ratio for restricts and this ratio can be understood for a value
of which lies in the range suggested by two body
B meson decays. The branching ratios for are predicted to be larger than the previous estimates. Finally it
is pointed that CKM-Wolfenstein parameter , where is CP
phase, can be determined from the ratio of widths of and or that of
and
independent of the parameter .Comment: 18 pages, latex, 1 figure available on request, please send any

Renormalizabilty of TH Heavy Quark Effective Theory
We show that the Heavy Quark Effective Theory is renormalizable
perturbatively. We also show that there exist renormalization schemes in which
the infinite quark mass limit of any QCD Green function is exactly given by the
corresponding Green function of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory. All this is
accomplished while preserving BRS invariance.Comment: LATEX/10 pages/ UAB-FT-314/ (References have been added.) figures

Loop-Less Electric Dipole Moment of the Nucleon in the Standard Model
We point out that the electric dipole moment of the neutron in the Standard
Model is generated already at tree level to the second order in the weak
interactions due to bound-state effects, without short-distance Penguin loops.
The related contribution has a regular nonvanishing chiral limit and does not
depend on the mass splitting between s and d quarks. We estimate it to be
roughly 10^(-31)e*cm and expect a more accurate evaluation in the future. We
comment on the connection between d_n and the direct CP-violation in D decays.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure
QCD-based description of one-particle inclusive B decays
We discuss one-particle inclusive B decays in the limit of heavy b and c
quarks. Using the large-N_C limit we factorize the non-leptonic matrix
elements, and we employ a short distance expansion. Modeling the remaining
nonperturbative matrix elements we obtain predictions for various decay
channels and compare them with existing data.Comment: LaTeX, 22 pages, 6 figures (eps); analytical and numerical results

One-particle inclusive CP asymmetries
One-particle inclusive CP asymmetries in the decays of the type B -> D(*) X

A heavy quark effective field lagrangian keeping particle and antiparticle mixed sectors
We derive a tree-level heavy quark effective Lagrangian keeping
particle-antiparticle mixed sectors allowing for heavy quark-antiquark pair
annihilation and creation. However, when removing the unwanted degrees of
freedom from the effective Lagrangian one has to be careful in using the
classical equations of motion obeyed by the effective fields in order to get a
convergent expansion on the reciprocal of the heavy quark mass. Then the
application of the effective theory to such hard processes should be sensible
for special kinematic regimes as for example heavy quark pair production near
threshold.Comment: LaTeX, 14 pages, 1 EPS figure
Large Universality of The Baryon Isgur--Wise Form Factor: The Group Theoretical Approach
In a previous article, it has been proved under the framework of chiral
soliton model that the same Isgur--Wise form factor describes the semileptonic
and decays in the
large limit. It is shown here that this result is in fact independent of
the chiral soliton model and is solely the consequence of the spin-flavor SU(4)
symmetry which arises in the baryon sector in the large limit.Comment: 10 pages in REVTeX, no figure
The eta' in baryon chiral perturbation theory
We include in a systematic way the eta' in baryon chiral perturbation theory.
The most general relativistic effective Lagrangian describing the interaction
of the lowest lying baryon octet with the Goldstone boson octet and the eta' is
presented up to linear order in the derivative expansion and its heavy baryon
limit is obtained. As explicit examples, we calculate the baryon masses and the
pi N sigma-term up to one-loop order in the heavy baryon formulation. A
systematic expansion in the meson masses is possible, and appearing divergences
are renormalized.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figure
The footprint of cometary dust analogs: I. Laboratory experiments of low-velocity impacts and comparison with Rosetta data
Cometary dust provides a unique window on dust growth mechanisms during the
onset of planet formation. Measurements by the Rosetta spacecraft show that the
dust in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko has a granular structure at
size scales from sub-um up to several hundreds of um, indicating hierarchical
growth took place across these size scales. However, these dust particles may
have been modified during their collection by the spacecraft instruments. Here
we present the results of laboratory experiments that simulate the impact of
dust on the collection surfaces of COSIMA and MIDAS, instruments onboard the
Rosetta spacecraft. We map the size and structure of the footprints left by the
dust particles as a function of their initial size (up to several hundred um)
and velocity (up to 6 m/s). We find that in most collisions, only part of the
dust particle is left on the target; velocity is the main driver of the
appearance of these deposits. A boundary between sticking/bouncing and
fragmentation as an outcome of the particle-target collision is found at v ~ 2
m/s. For velocities below this value, particles either stick and leave a single
deposit on the target plate, or bounce, leaving a shallow footprint of
monomers. At velocities > 2 m/s and sizes > 80 um, particles fragment upon
collision, transferring up to 50 per cent of their mass in a rubble-pile-like
deposit on the target plate. The amount of mass transferred increases with the
impact velocity. The morphologies of the deposits are qualitatively similar to
those found by the COSIMA instrument.Comment: 14 pages, 12 figures, accepted for publication in MNRA
