KaonB parameter with static cavity QCD corrections

  • Published:

Abstract

The kaonB parameter is computed in a framework in which static cavity QCD loop corrections to the weak interactions of hadrons are included by extending the Fock state wavefunction to includeO(g) bremsstrahlung and vacuum fluctuation states. Since the QCD corrections are inherent in the calculation of the matrix elements of the bare effective weak ΔS=2 Hamiltonian between hadronic states the scale matching problem of the standard short distance analysis is alleviated. The modified static cavity model used is characterised by four parameters; the effective quarkgluon coupling constant, the confinement pressure, the zero-point energy and a parameter governing the centre-of-mass corrections. These parameters are fitted to the π and ϱ masses and the charge radii of π andK. Results are given for the ultra-relativistic (m u=m d=0) sector and for a region (m u=m d≈140 MeV) where the ΔI=1/2 rule is uniquely reproduced. For the parameter set which describes the ΔI=1/2 rule we findB K=0.58 at a basis size ofN B=6.
