Revisiting the $B^0\to {\pi }^0{\pi }^0$ decays in the perturbative QCD approach

Abstract

We recalculate the branching ratio and CP asymmetry for ${\bar{B}}^0(B^0)\to {\pi }^0{\pi }^0$ decays in the Perturbative QCD approach. In this approach, we consider all the possible diagrams including non-factorizable contributions and annihilation contributions. We obtain $Br({\bar{B}}^0(B^0)\to {\pi }^0{\pi }^0)=(1.17_{-0.12}^{+0.11})\times 10^{-6}$. Our result is in agreement with the latest measured branching ratio of $B^0\to {\pi }^0{\pi }^0$ by the Belle and HFAG Collaborations. We also predict large direct CP asymmetry and mixing CP asymmetry in $B^0\to {\pi }^0{\pi }^0$ decays, which can be tested by the coming Belle-II experiments.
