Mixing-induced CP Asymmetries in Radiative B Decays in and beyond the Standard Model

Abstract

In the Standard Model (SM) the photon in radiative and decays is predominantly left-handed. Thus, mixing induced CP asymmetries in and are suppressed by and , respectively, and are very small. In many extensions of the SM, such as the left-right symmetric model (LRSM), SU(2)xU(1) models with exotic fermions and SUSY, the amplitude of right-handed photons grows proportional to the virtual heavy fermion mass, which can lead to large asymmetries. As an example, in the LRSM, asymmetries larger than 50% are possible even when radiative decay rate measurements agree with SM predictions.
