We obtain Delta S_{f_0 K_S} within the context of the QCD factorization framework for the B to f_0(980)K_S decay amplitudes assuming the f_0(980) is a q\\bar{q} state and employing a random scan over the theoretical parameter space to assess the possible range in Delta S_{f_0 K_S}. Imposing the value of the experimental branching ratio within 1 sigma and 3 sigma, respectively, of its central value as a constraint, we find the range of Delta S_{f_0 K_S} to be [0.018, 0.033] for a scan in which the parameters are allowed to vary within 1 sigma of their central values and the range [-0.019, 0.064] for a scan in which the parameters vary within 3 sigma of their central values.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2008-05-17T21:15:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.30.Er", "13.25.Hw" ], "keywords": [ "central value", "time-dependent cp asymmetry", "standard model physics", "qcd factorization framework", "parameters vary" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review D", "year": 2008, "month": "Aug", "volume": 78, "number": 3, "pages": "034021" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 785690, "adsabs": "2008PhRvD..78c4021D" } } }
