Measurement of Forward-Backward Asymmetry and Wilson Coefficients in $B\to K^{\ast }{\ell }^{+}{\ell }^{-}$

Abstract

We report the first measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry and the ratios of Wilson coefficients $A_9/A_7$ and $A_{10}/A_7$ in $B\to K^{\ast }{\ell }^{+}{\ell }^{-}$, where $\ell$ represents an electron or a muon. We observe a large integrated forward-backward asymmetry with a significance of 3.4$\sigma$. The results are obtained from a data sample containing 386 $\times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs that were collected on the ${\rm Y}(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ collider.
