Factorization fits to charmless strangeless B decays

Year: 2005

Type: article

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 $\ensuremath{\alpha}=(93.5\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}8.4\ensuremath{-}1.3)\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}$ and to be quite stable to plausible ``charming penguin'' corrections.
