In general $B\\to PX$ semi-inclusive decays involve several hadronic parameters. But for $\\bar B^0 \\to \\pi^+ X_q$ decays we find that in the factorization approximation, the only unknown hadronic parameters are the form factors $F^{B\\to \\pi}_{0,1}$. Therefore these form factors can be studied in $\\bar B^0 \\to \\pi^+ X_q$ decays. Using theoretical model calculations for the form factors the branching ratios for $\\bar B^0 \\to \\pi^+ X_d(\\Delta S = 0) $ and $\\bar B^0 \\to \\pi^+ X_s (\\Delta S = -1)$, with the cut $E_{\\pi} > 2.1$ GeV, are estimated to be in the ranges of $(3.1\\sim 4.9) \\times 10^{-5}(F^{B\\to \\pi}_1(0)/0.33)^2$ and $(2.5\\sim 4.2)\\times 10^{-5}(F_1^{B\\to \\pi}(0)/0.33)^2$, respectively, depending on the value of $\\gamma$. The combined branching ratio for $\\bar B^0 \\to \\pi^+ (X_d+ X_s)$ is about $7.4\\times 10^{-5} (F^{B\\to \\pi}_1(0)/0.33)^2$ and is insensitive to $\\gamma$. We also discuss CP asymmetries in these decay modes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-06-09T09:40:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.30.Er", "14.40.Nd" ], "keywords": [ "form factor", "standard model", "branching ratio", "semi-inclusive decays", "unknown hadronic parameters" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
