AI总结:

Belle和Belle II实验利用积分亮度超1 ab⁻¹的Υ(4S)数据,测量半轻B衰变的轻子味普适性,给出R(D(*))等新结果,其世界平均值仍与标准模型预测存在张力。

摘要:

检验半轻B介子衰变中的轻子味普适性是超出标准模型新物理的灵敏探针。Belle和Belle II实验分别在日本的KEKB和SuperKEKB对撞机上运行,已收集到质心系能量对应Υ(4S)共振的e+e-→B\bar{B}碰撞数据,联合积分亮度超过1 ab⁻¹。这些数据具有低粒子多重数、受限的初态运动学以及优异的轻子鉴别能力,为研究B介子半轻衰变中的轻子味普适性提供了理想环境。本文给出了半τ轻子型B衰变率与类似轻轻子衰变率比值的新结果,包括Belle II利用伴随B介子标签的半轻或强子重建,测量包含排他性B→D(*)τν和B→D(*)ℓν衰变的分支比比值R(D(*));还给出了Belle II和Belle对B→D*ℓν模式中角可观量的测量结果,这些测量可检验轻轻子普适性及衰变的洛伦兹结构。测量受统计限制,且各自与标准模型预期一致;新的R(D(*))结果也与实验世界平均值兼容,而世界平均值仍与标准模型预测存在张力。Belle II现已积累了超过Belle的Υ(4S)数据样本,为新分析方法和更高精度提供了大量机会。

英文摘要:

Tests of lepton-flavour universality in semileptonic \(B\)-meson decays provide sensitive probes of physics beyond the Standard Model. The Belle and Belle II experiments, respectively operating on the KEKB and SuperKEKB colliders in Japan, have collected \(e^+e^-\to B\bar{B}\) collisions at a center-of-mass energy corresponding to the \(Υ(4S)\) resonance in samples with a combined integrated luminosity exceeding \(1\,\mathrm{ab}^{-1}\). These data, with low particle multiplicity, constrained initial-state kinematics, and excellent lepton identification, provide an ideal environment to study lepton-flavour universality in semileptonic decays of \(B\) mesons. New results on the ratios of semitauonic \(B\)-decay rates compared to analogous light-lepton rates are presented. These include new Belle II measurements of branching-fraction ratios \(R(D^{(*)})\) involving exclusive \(B\to D^{(*)}τν\) and \(B\to D^{(*)}\ellν\) decays using semileptonic or hadronic reconstruction of the accompanying \(B\)-meson tag. Belle II and Belle measurements of angular observables in \(B\to D^*\ellν\) modes that test light-lepton universality and the Lorentz structure of the decay are also presented. The measurements are statistically limited and individually consistent with Standard Model expectations. The new \(R(D^{(*)})\) results are also compatible with experimental world averages, which continue to exhibit tension with Standard Model predictions. Belle II has now accumulated an \(Υ(4S)\) data sample exceeding that of Belle, offering substantial opportunities for new analysis approaches and heightened precision.
