Abstract

We present a recent analysis of epsilon'/epsilon in the 1/Nc expansion. We show that the 1/Nc corrections to the matrix element of Q6 are large and positive, indicating a Delta I=1/2 enhancement similar to the one of Q1 and Q2 which dominate the CP conserving amplitude. This enhances the CP ratio and can bring the standard model prediction close to the measured value for central values of the parameters.
