Abstract
™
We study the decay B X sg in a minimal extension of the standard model with extra up- and down-type quarks whose left- and right-handed components are both SUŽ2. singlets. Constraints on the extended Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix are obtained from the experimental results for the branching ratio. Even if the extra quarks are too heavy to be detected in near-future colliders, the branching ratio could have a value which is non-trivially different from the prediction of the standard model. q 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

The inclusive decay B X sg is well described by the free quark decays b sg and b sg g, owing to a large mass of the b quark. Since these decays are generated at the one-loop level of the electroweak interactions, the radiative B-meson decay is sensitive to new physics beyond the Standard Model ŽSM. w1x, such as the supersymmetric model w2x. Its branching ratio could deviate from the prediction of the SM. Or some constraints could be imposed on new physics. Experimentally, the branching

quark model ŽVQM., many features of the SM are not significantly modified. However, the interactions of the quarks with the W or Z boson are qualitatively different from those in the SM. The Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa ŽCKM. matrix for the charged current is extended and not unitary. The neutral current involves interactions between the quarks with different flavors. In addition, the neutral Higgs boson also mediates flavor-changing interactions at the tree level. The VQM could thus give sizable new contributions to processes of flavorchanging neutral current ŽFCNC. w6,7x and of CP violation w8,9x. In this paper we study the radiative B-meson decay within the framework of the VQM containing one up-type and one down-type extra quarks. The decay receives contributions from the interactions mediated by the W, Z, and Higgs bosons. The effects by the Z and Higgs bosons have already been studied and found to be small w7x. Our study is concentrated on the other effects coming from the W-mediated interactions. These interactions give contributions differently from the SM at the electroweak energy scale, since an extra up-type quark is involved and the CKM matrix is not the same as that of the SM. It will be shown that the decay width can be much different from the SM prediction, even if the extra quark is rather heavy. The experimental results for the decay rate thus impose non-trivial constraints on the extended CKM matrix. We assume that there exist two extra Dirac fermions whose transformation properties are given by Ž3,1,2r3. and Ž3,1,y 1r3. for the SUŽ3. = SUŽ2. = UŽ1. gauge symmetry. The mass terms of the quarks are then expressed by 4 = 4 matrices. These mass matrices, which are denoted by M u and M d respectively for up- and down-type quarks, are diagonalized by unitary matrices AuL , AuR , A dL , and A dR as

Since V is not a unitary matrix, there appear interactions of FCNC at the tree level. The Lagrangians in Eqs. Ž5. and Ž8. contain new sources of CP violation w8x. The decay B X sg is approximated by the radiative b-quark decays, which are mediated by the W,

The obtained branching ratio at the LO has nonnegligible perturbative uncertainties, which are reduced by taking into account corrections at the next leading order ŽNLO.. For the numerical evaluation, therefore, we incorporate NLO corrections for the matrix elements at m s m b w13x and the anomalous dimensions w14x. Our calculations follow formulae given in Ref. w5x, which also include QED corrections. The decay width of B X sg depends on the U-quark mass mU and the CKM matrix elements V32) V33 , V42) V43 , Ž V † V . 23 . The value of Ž V † V . 23 determines the FCNC interactions at the tree level in Eq. Ž8., which is constrained from non-observation of B K mq my w15x as

The CKM matrix elements connecting light ordinary quarks, which are directly measured in experiments, have the same values as those in the SM. From the values of V12 , V13 , V22 , and V23 w15x, we obtain a constraint 0.03 - < V32) V33 q V42) V43 y Ž V † V . 23 < - 0.05.

Ž 21 . where A 3 is a function of mU while A1 and A 2 are constants. We show the mU dependency of A 3 in Fig. 2, where A1 and A 2 are also depicted. For mU R 200 GeV, the value of A 3 does not vary much with mU and is comparable with A 2 . Unless V42) V43 is much smaller than V32) V33 , the coefficient C 7 Ž m b . can be predicted differently from the SM value.

The mass mU should be heavier than the t-quark mass. In principle, the U-quark mass and the CKM matrix elements are not independent of each other, their relations being determined by the mass matrices M u and M d. However, these relations depend on many unknown factors for the mass matrices. Furthermore, the values of mU and V42) V43 are thoroughly unknown phenomenologically except for the above constraints. We therefore take them for independent parameters. The decay width is mainly determined by the Wilson coefficient C 7 Ž m b . as seen from Eq. Ž18..

values of V32) V33 and V42) V43 are constrained. These constraints do not much depend on the mass of the extra quark U. The VQM could make the branching ratio of B X sg different from the SM prediction. If precise measurements in the near future show a difference between the experimental value and the SM prediction, the VQM may become one candidate for physics beyond the SM.

Although A1 is larger than A 2 and A 3 in magnitude, the smallness of Ž V † V . 23 makes the term A1Ž V † V . 23 less important. In Fig. 3 we show allowed regions for V32) V33 and ) V42 V43 , assuming for simplicity that these values are real. The shaded regions are compatible with the experimental results of both Eq. Ž2. for B X sg and Eq. Ž20. for the CKM matrix elements. The regions between the solid lines satisfy the latter. We have taken the U-quark mass for 200 GeV - mU - 1 TeV and Ž V † V . 23 for its maximal value 8.1 = 10y4 . The branching ratio of B X sg sizably constrains the CKM matrix elements of the VQM. The allowed regions are slightly altered for Ž V † V . 23 s y8.1 = 10y4 . In Fig. 4 the branching ratio of B X sg is depicted as a function of mU for V42) V43 s y0.006, y0.002,0.004,0.006. For definiteness, we put V32) V33 s 0.04 and Ž V † V . 23 s 8.1 = 10y4 . The experimental bounds Eqs. Ž1. and Ž2. are also shown. For < V42) V43rV32) V33 < R 0.1, the predicted value is non-trivially different from that of the SM. The branching ratio could have any value within the experimental bounds. In summary, we have studied the effects of the VQM on the branching ratio for the radiative B-meson decay. Among the possible new contributions, the W-mediated diagrams yield sizable effects. From the experimental results for the branching ratio, the
