Factorization fits to charmless strangeless B decays

arXiv:hep-ph/0501040 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.71.077301

Abstract

We present fits to charmless strangeless hadronic B decay data for mean branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries using the QCD factorization model of Beneke et al. Apart from one CP-violating parameter, the model gives a very good representation of 26 measured data. We find the CKM angle alpha = (93.5 +/- 8.4 -1.3) degrees and to be quite stable to plausible "charming penguin" corrections.
