B → D^* vector, axial-vector and tensor form factors for the full q^2 range from lattice QCD
arXiv (Cornell University)(2023)
摘要
We compute the complete set of SM and tensor B_(s)→
D_(s)^*ℓν̅ semileptonic form factors across the full kinematic
range of the decay using second generation MILC n_f=2+1+1 HISQ gluon field
configurations and HISQ valence quarks, with the heavy-HISQ method. Lattice
spacings range from 0.09fm to 0.044fm with pion masses
from ≈ 300MeV down to the physical value and heavy quark
masses ranging between ≈ 1.5 m_c and 4.1 m_c ≈ 0.9 m_b;
currents are normalised nonperturbatively. Using the recent B_(s)→
D^*_(s)ℓν̅_ℓ data from Belle and LHCb together with our form
factors we determine a model independent value of
V_cb=39.03(56)_exp(67)_latt× 10^-3, in agreement
with previous exclusive determinations and in tension with the inclusive result
at the level of 3.6σ. We observe a ≈ 1σ tension between the
shape of the differential decay rates computed using our form factors and those
measured by Belle. We compute a lattice-only SM value for the ratio of
semitauonic and semimuonic decay rates, R(D^*)=0.273(15), which we find to be
closer to the recent Belle measurement and HFLAV average than theory
predictions using fits to experimental differential rate data for B→
D^*ℓν̅_ℓ. Determining V_cb using the total rate for B→
D^*ℓν gives a value in agreement with inclusive results. We compute the
longitudinal polarisation fraction for the semitauonic mode,
F_L^D^*=0.395(24), which is in tension at the level of 2.2σ with the
recent Belle measurement. Our calculation combines B→ D^* and B_s→
D_s^* lattice results, and we provide an update which supersedes our previous
lattice computation of the B_s→ D_s^* form factors. We also give the chiral
perturbation theory needed to analyse the tensor form factors.
