The B\to D_s^{(*)}\pi decays in the perturbative QCD

Abstract

In this paper, we calculate the branching ratios for B^0\to D_s^+\pi^-, B^+\to D_s^+\pi^0, B^0\to D_s^{*+}\pi^- and B^+\to D_s^{*+}\pi^0 decays in the perturbative QCD factorization approach. We find that the calculated branching ratios of these four decay channels agree well with the measured values and current experimental upper limit. In the numerical calculation, we take the decay constant and the shape parameter of the vector meson D^{*}_s as f_{D^{*}_s}=312 MeV and a_{D^{*}_s}=0.78 respectively, which are larger than those in the previous calculations.
