Two mechanisms concerning kaon pair production arise: current-produced (from vacuum) and transition (from the $B$ meson). The kaon pair in the $\\bar B {}^0\\to D^{(*)+}K^-K^0$ decays can be produced only by the vector current (current-produced), whose matrix element can be extracted from $e^+e^-\\to K\\bar K$ processes via isospin relations. The decay rates obtained this way are in good agreement with experiment. The $B^-\\to D^{(*)0}K^-K^0$ decays involve both current-produced and transition processes. By using QCD counting rules and the measured $B^-\\to D^{(*)0} K^- K^0$ decay rates, the measured decay spectra can be understood.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2004-03-03T06:22:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "13.25.Hw", "14.40.Nd" ], "keywords": [ "factorization", "mechanisms concerning kaon pair production", "decay rates", "three-body", "concerning kaon pair production arise" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "European Physical Journal C", "year": 2004, "volume": 33, "pages": 253 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 3, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 642790, "adsabs": "2004EPJC...33S.253C" } } }
