Abstract

In this paper we first calculate the form factors of B→(π,K)B \to (π,K) and Bs→KB_s \to K transitions by employing the perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach with the inclusion of the next-to-leading-order(NLO) corrections, and then we calculate the branching ratios of the corresponding semileptonic decays B/Bs→(π,K)(l+l−,lν,ννˉ)B/B_s \to (π, K)(l^+l^-,lν,ν\barν) (here ll denotes e,μe, μ and ττ). Based on the numerical calculations and phenomenological analysis, we found the following results: (a) For B→(π,K)B \to (π, K) and Bs→KB_s \to K transition form factors $F_{0,+,\rmt}(q^2)$, the NLO pQCD predictions for the values of $F_{0,+,\rmt}(0)$ and their q2q^2-dependence agree well with those obtained from other methods; (b) For Bˉ0→π+l−νˉl,Kˉ0l+l−\bar{B}^0 \to π^+l^-\barν_l, \bar{K}^0 l^+ l^- and B−→π0l−νˉl,K−l+l−B^- \to π^0 l^-\barν_l, K^- l^+ l^- decay modes, the NLO pQCD predictions for their branching ratios agree very well with the measured values; (c) By comparing the pQCD predictions for Br(Bˉ0→π+l−νˉl)Br(\bar{B}^0 \to π^+l^-\barν_l) with the measured decay rate we extract out the magnitude of VubV_{ub}: ∣Vub∣=(3.80−0.50+0.56(theor.))×10−3|V_{ub}|= (3.80^{+0.56}_{-0.50}(theor.)) \times 10^{-3}; (d) We also defined several ratios of the branching ratios, Rν,RCR_ν, R_C and RN1,N2,N3R_{N1,N2,N3}, and presented the corresponding pQCD predictions, which will be tested by LHCb and the forthcoming Super-B experiments.
