Using the large energy effective theory (LEET) techniques, we formulate $B \\to K_J^{(*)}$ transition form factors in the large recoil region in terms of two independent LEET functions $\\zeta_\\perp^{K_J^{(*)}}$ and $\\zeta_\\parallel^{K_J^{(*)}}$, the values of which at zero momentum transfer are estimated in the BSW model. According to the QCD counting rules, $\\zeta_{\\perp,\\parallel}^{K_J^{(*)}}$ exhibit a dipole dependence in $q^2$. We predict the decay rates for $B \\to K_J^{(*)} \\gamma$, $B \\to K_J^{(*)} \\ell^+ \\ell^-$ and $B \\to K_J^{(*)}\\nu \\bar{\\nu}$. The branching fractions for these decays with higher $K$-resonances in the final state are suppressed due to the smaller phase spaces and the smaller values of $\\zeta^{K_J^{(*)}}_{\\perp,\\parallel}$. Furthermore, if the spin of $K_J^{(*)}$ becomes larger, the branching fractions will be further suppressed due to the smaller Clebsch-Gordan coefficients defined by the polarization tensors of the $K_J^{(*)}$. We also calculate the forward backward asymmetry of the $B \\to K_J^{(*)} \\ell^+ \\ell^-$ decay, for which the zero is highly insensitive to the $K$-resonances in the LEET parametrization.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-01-13T10:56:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "13.20.He", "14.40.Ev", "12.39.Hg" ], "keywords": [ "final state", "higher k-resonances", "semileptonic", "large recoil region", "independent leet functions" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1140/epjc/s10052-010-1293-7", "journal": "European Physical Journal C", "year": 2010, "month": "May", "volume": 67, "number": "1-2", "pages": 149 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 825272, "adsabs": "2010EPJC...67..149H" } } }
