How Can I Approach D0 → K+ K- Decay for My School Project?

Hi, I am working on D 0 →K+ K− for my school project. I looked for any similar subjects and essays, i could not find this specific decay, i could write the form factors and also effective hamiltonian by myself but unfortunately i have problem writing the equations for LCDA ( light cone distribution amplitude) ( not sure about what i write)and so amplitude equations because my final mesons are semi-scalar and not vector. would you please advise me if you have any sources or if you can help me in this regard? I know i have two diagrams for this decay, one tree and one penguin diagram so i should have 6 Wilson coefficient. But i do not know how to use them to write the final amplitude equation and not sure if i am doing correct.

Any sources and help regarding this decay will be so helpful for me.

LHCb published several experimental papers about this decay (and D0 -> pi pi, delta A_CP is another good keyword to look for), their introduction sections should have appropriate theory references.

Thread 'Toponium Discovered'

Toponium is a hadron which is the bound state of a valance top quark and a valance antitop quark. Oversimplified presentations often state that top quarks don't form hadrons, because they decay to bottom quarks extremely rapidly after they are created, leaving no time to form a hadron. And, the vast majority of the time, this is true. But, the lifetime of a top quark is only an average lifetime. Sometimes it decays faster and sometimes it decays slower. In the highly improbable case that...

Thread 'Dirac-Delta from Normalization of Continuous Eigenfunctions'

I'm following this paper by Kitaev on SL(2,R) representations and I'm having a problem in the normalization of the continuous eigenfunctions (eqs. (67)-(70)), which satisfy \langle f_s | f_{s'} \rangle = \int_{0}^{1} \frac{2}{(1-u)^2} f_s(u)^* f_{s'}(u) \, du. \tag{67} The singular contribution of the integral arises at the endpoint u=1 of the integral, and in the limit u \to 1, the function f_s(u) takes on the form f_s(u) \approx a_s (1-u)^{1/2 + i s} + a_s^* (1-u)^{1/2 - i s}. \tag{70}...
