摘要:

K介子衰变为π介子和带电轻子/反轻子对的过程是通过中性流的味道变化进行的,因此在标准模型中,这种衰变只能在树能级以上才能被诱导。这种自然的抑制使这些衰变对潜在的新物理学的影响很敏感。要辨别这样的新物理学,人们必须能够控制标准模型预测衰变幅度的误差。然而,这些特殊的衰变通道主要是由一个单光子交换,这涉及到一个相当大的长距离强子的贡献,这是目前的主要来源的理论不确定性。在这里,我们概述了我们的方法计算长距离的贡献,这些罕见的衰变振幅使用格点量子色动力学,并提出了一些探索性的研究,使用域壁费米子系综的RBC和UKQCD合作的数值结果。

英文摘要:

The rare decays of a kaon into a pion and a charged lepton/antilepton pair proceed via a flavour changing neutral current and therefore may only be induced beyond tree level in the Standard Model. This natural suppression makes these decays sensitive to the effects of potential New Physics. To discern such New Physics one must be able to control the errors on the Standard Model prediction of the decay amplitude. These particular decay channels however are dominated by a single photon exchange; this involves a sizeable long-distance hadronic contribution which represents the current major source of theoretical uncertainty. Here we outline our methodology for the computation of the long distance contributions to these rare decay amplitudes using lattice QCD, and present the numerical results of some exploratory studies using the Domain Wall Fermion ensembles of the RBC and UKQCD collaborations.
