Space-like Penguin Effects in B→PPB \to PP Decays

The space-like penguin contributions to branching ratios and CP asymmetries in charmless decays of $B$ to two pseudoscalar mesons are studied using the next-to-leading order low energy effective Hamiltonian. Both the gluonic penguin and the electroweak penguin diagrams are considered. We find that the effects are significant.Comment: 18 pages, LaTex file, 2 figure
