No, it is just a flavour eigenstate. I have to consider the CKM matrix relating flavour to mass eigenstates... So, given the CKM element ## V_{cs} = 0.974 ##, the probability for W to decay into c anti-s should be its square, ## 0.974^2 \approx 0.95 ## ?
But what about the leptonic channel?
Homework Statement
Hi, I need to get an estimate of the branching ratios of the processes [/B]
t ---> b + W ---> b + c anti-s
t ---> b + W ---> b + anti-tau nu(tau)
without doing the calculations, just a qualitative estimation.
I know I have to take into account the way W decays...
