Lattice B-parameters for $\Delta S = 2$ and $\Delta I = 3/2$ Operators

Abstract

We compute several matrix elements of dimension-six four-fermion operators and extract their B-parameters. The calculations have been performed with the tree-level Clover action at $\beta = 6.0$. The renormalization constants and mixing coefficients of the lattice operators have been obtained non-perturbatively. In the $\MSbar$ renormalization scheme, at a renormalization scale $\mu \simeq 2$ GeV, we find $B_K (B_9^{3/2}) = 0.66(11), B_7^{3/2} = 0.72(5)$ and $B_8^{3/2} = 1.03(3)$. The result for $B_8^{3/2}$ has important implications for the calculation of $\epsilon^\prime / \epsilon$.
