How To Kill a Penguin

Abstract

Within constrained minimal-flavor-violation the large destructive flavor-changing Z-penguin managed to survive eradication so far. We give a incisive description of how to kill it using the precision measurements of the Z -> b anti-b pseudo observables. The derived stringent range for the non-standard contribution to the universal Inami-Lim function C leads to tight two-sided limits for the branching ratios of all Z-penguin dominated flavor-changing K- and B-decays.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, 1 table, uses pdflatex, talk given at DIS 2007, Muenchen, Germany, April 15--20, 200
