使用LHCb数据的$3 \text{fb}^{-1}$从${B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-}$可观测量得到的启示

摘要:

衰变模$B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$通过研究衰变产物的角分布,可以测量大量相关的可观测量,被认为是超越标准模型(SM)的一种灵敏的物理探针。最近,LHCb利用$3 \text{fb}^{-1}$数据测量了几个这样的观测量,作为双轻子不变质量平方$q^2$的一个分组函数。我们展示了如何使用数据,而无需任何近似提取理论参数描述的衰变,并获得SM内的观测值之间的关系。我们发现三种显着的理论期望值和拟合得到的值之间的分歧。从实验数据中获得的形状因子的值与几个$q^2$箱中的理论预期相比显示出显着的差异。我们强调,这种差异不会出现由于共振和不可因式分解的贡献从魅力圈。此外,非常显著地违反了预期保持大$q^2$的形状因子之间的关系。最后,观测量之间的关系也表明在相同的$q^2$区域的前向后不对称性的一些偏差。这些差异可能是超越SM的物理学的证据。

英文摘要:

The decay mode $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ results in the measurement of a large number of related observables by studying the angular distribution of the decay products and is regarded as a sensitive probe of physics beyond the standard model (SM). Recently, LHCb has measured several of these observables using $3 \text{fb}^{-1}$ data, as a binned function of $q^2$, the dilepton invariant mass squared. We show how data can be used without any approximations to extract theoretical parameters describing the decay and to obtain a relation amongst observables within the SM. We find three kinds of significant disagreement between theoretical expectations and values obtained by fits. The values of the form factors obtained from experimental data show significant discrepancies when compared with theoretical expectations in several $q^2$ bins. We emphasize that this discrepancy cannot arise due to resonances and non-factorizable contributions from charm loops. Further, a relation between form factors expected to hold at large $q^2$ is very significantly violated. Finally, the relation between observables also indicates some deviations in the forward-backward asymmetry in the same $q^2$ regions. These discrepancies are possible evidence of physics beyond the SM.
