Study the contributions of S, P, and D-wave resonances to the quasi-two-body decays B0s → (3686,3770)Kπ in perturbative QCD approach
Abstract
Based on the perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD) approach and the quasi-two-body approximation, we have studied the three-body decays B0s→ (3686,3770)Kπ, which include the contributions of the intermediate resonances K*0(1430)0, K*(892)0, K*(1410)0, K*(1680)0, and K*2(1430)0. The time-like form factors corresponding to the distribution amplitudes of the S, P, and D-wave of the kaon-pion pair have been adopted in the parameterized form, which describe the interactions between K and π in the resonance region. First, the decays B0s→ (2S,1D)K-π+ have been calculated followed by the calculation of the branching ratios of the decays B0s→ (3686,3770)K-π+ using the 2S-1D mixing scheme. In addition, the pQCD predictions for the decays B0s→ (2S,1D)Kπ and B0s→ (3686,3770)Kπ have been obtained using the narrow-width approximation relation given by the Clebsch-Gorden coefficients. Our work shows that the K*(892)0 resonance is the main contributor to the total decay, and the branching ratio and the longitudinal polarization fraction of the (2S)K*(892)0 decay mode agree well with the currently available data within errors. Furthermore, the theoretical predictions of the (2S) and (3686) decay modes are very close, indicating that they can be regarded as the same meson state. Finally, the pQCD predictions for branching ratios of decays B0s→ (3686,3770)Kπ are of the order of 10-5 and 10-6, respectively, which can be verified using the ongoing LHCb and Belle II experiments.
