Effective Hamiltonian Three fundamental scales: weak interaction scale b-quark mass scaleQCD scale Two tools of quantum field theory: • Operator Product Expansion To separate the full problem into two distinct parts • Long-distance physics at scale lower than µ is contained in operator matrix elements. • Short-distance physics at scale higher than µ is described by the Wilson coefficients. • Renormalization Group Improved Perturbation Theory To transfer the coefficients from scale mW down to the appropriate low energy scale.

  11. a1(mb)≈1.1 >> 0.1 a2(mb)≈0.1 ~ 0.1 The failure of NF implies the importance of non-factorizable corrections to color-suppressed modes NF Non-Factorizable Color-allowed Color-suppressed

  12. c q unknown Summary of NF • NF is very simple and provides qualitative estimation of branching ratios of various two body nonleptonic B decays • Breaks the scale independence of decay amplitudes • Decay constant and form factor are notscale-dependent • Wilson coefficientsCi(µ)arescale-dependent • Physical decay amplitudes are dependent on renormalization scale and renormalization scheme • Non-factorizable amplitudes are not always negligible • Expected to work well for color-allowed modes • Fails for color-suppressed modes as expected • Evaluation of strong phasesis ambiguous Strong phase arises from charm penguin loop

  13. NF Generalized Factorization How to calculate g()? A. J. Buras and L. Silvestrini, Nucl. Phys. B 548, 293 (1999), H. Y. Cheng, H. n. Li and K. C. Yang, Phys. Rev. D 60, 094005 (1999). Scale independence: Before applying factorization, extract the scale  dependence from the matrix element. dependences cancel Neff is treated as a phenomenological parameter which models the non-factorizable contributions to the hadronic matrix elements, which have not been includes into Cieff.

  14. One proposal by Cheng, Li, Yang in Phys.Rev.D60:094005,1999. • Gauge dependent assume external quarks are on shell • Infrared cutoff absorb Infrared divergence into meson wave functions Gauge invariant Scale invariant Infrared finite Infrared cutoff and gauge dependences The extraction ofg() involves the one-loop corrections to the four quark vertex, which are infrared divergent. Cieffare μ and renormalization scheme independent, but are both gauge and infrared regulator dependent. Nceff The scale dependence is just replaced by the cutoff and gauge dependences.

  15. Summary of GF • NCeff=2may explain many nonleptonic B decays • Decays of Class I and III are consistent with data • GF can not work well in Decays of Class II • GF can not offer convincing means to analyze the physics of non-factorizable contributions to non- leptonic decays • Strong phases still come from charm penguin loop • CPV can not be estimated correctly

  16. Naïve Factorization QCD Factorization Beneke, Buchalla, Neuber and Sachrajda BBNS approach: PRL 83,1914(1999); NPB 591,313(2000). QCDF = NF + as and ΛQCD/mb non-factorizable corrections Spectator scattering Form Factor term Up to power Corrections ofΛQCD/mb

  17. Other corrections which aren’t included in They are suppressed by ΛQCD/mb TI,II are the hard scattering kernels includes: : tree diagram :non-factorizable gluon exchange includes: : hard spectator scattering

  18. End-point divergences Also in annihilation amplitudes At twist-3 for spectator amplitudes Parameterization(Phase parameters are arbitrary) Summary of QCDF • At the zeroth order of , QCDF reduces to naive factorization. At the higher order, the corrections can be computed systematically. • The renormalization scheme and scale dependence of is restored. In the heavy quark limit, the “non-factorizable” contributions is calculable perturbatively. It does not need to introduce NCeff. • Non-factorizable contribution to NF and strong phase from the penguin loop diagrams can be computed. QCDF is a breakthrough!

  19. Has Naïve Factorization been so successful that what we need to do is only small corrections ? One proposal could be realized in an alternative way, the Perturbative QCD approach. The leading term is further factorized, and naïve factorization prediction could be modified greatly.

  20. Φ:Meson distribution amplitude H: Hard scattering kernel • e-S:Sudakov factor • Describe the meson Distribution in kT • kT accumulates after infinitely many gluon exchanges Perturbative QCD H-n. Li and H. L. Yu, Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 4388; Phys. Lett. B 353, 301. Y. Y. Keum, H-n. Li, and A. I. Sanda, Phys. Lett. B 504, 6; Phys. Rev. D 63, 054008 . C. D. Lu, K. Ukai, and M. Z. Yang, Phys. Rev. D 63, 074009 .

  21. singularity at endpoint M. Beneke (Flavour Physics and CP violation, Taipeh, May 5-9, 2008): There is no end-point singularity because of the Sudakov factor. The gluon propagator: x,y are integral variables from 0 to 1 The arbitrary cutoffs in QCDF are not necessary.

  23. mb→∞ PQCDF Results as→0 QCDFF Results in PQCD in QCDF Power and Order Counting Rule Foctorizable:Annihilation:Non-Factorizable m0 is the chiral symmetry breaking scale (~1.8GeV)

  24. Summary of PQCD • Incorporating Sudakov suppression makes form factors perturbatively calculable. • Hard spectator scattering and annihilation topology are calculable, no end-point divergences. • The prediction of large direct CP asymmetries are strongly model dependent. • The assumption of Sudakov suppression in hadronic B decays is questionable: PQCD calculation are very sensitive to details of kT dependenceof the wave function

  25. Soft Collinear Effective Theory C.W. Bauer, S. Fleming, M. Luke, Phys. Rev. D 63, 014006 (2001). C.W. Bauer, S. Fleming, D. Pirjol, I.W. Stewart, Phys. Rev. D 63, 114020 . • New approach to the analysis of infrared divergences in QCD. • SCET has a transparent power counting in λ = ΛQCD/Q (or λ = (ΛQCD/Q)1/2) so that power corrections can be investigated in a systematic way. • Also introduces transverse momentum kT. • Many proofs of factorization are already complete:

  26. Summary • The calculation of hadronic matrix elements is an great challenge for non-perturbative. • NFwas employed for a long time (since 80s). • Different approaches have been developed: GF, QCDF, PQCD, SCET......
