Introduction Flavor-changingneutralcurrent(FCNC)BdecaysoftheformB K( )X whereX =llorππγ ∗ → and l =e,µ are highly suppressed in the Standard Model (SM). The lowest-order SM processes contributing to these decays are the photon and Z penguins and theW+W box diagrams. These − decays can provide a stringent test of the SM and a fertile ground for New Physics (NP) searches as virtual particles may enter in the loop and allow us to probe new physics at large mass scales. Detailsandreferencesforeachofthedecaymodescoveredinthisworkaregiveninthefollowing sections. We use data recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e− storage rings operated at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. The data sample consists of 424 fb 1 of e+e collisions recorded at the center-of-mass (CM) energy √s=10.58 GeV.

An important potential contribution to this decay is from neutral Higgs boson couplings, wherethelepton-lepton-Higgsverticesareproportionaltothesquaredmassoftheleptonsinvolved [8]; thus,inthecaseoftheτ lepton,suchcontributionscanbesignificantandcouldalterthetotal decayrate. WeusehadronicBmesontaggingtechniques,whereoneofthetwoBmesons,referred to as the B , is reconstructed exclusively via its decay into one of several hadronic decay modes tag [9]. We consider only leptonic decays of the τ, i.e. τ+ e+ν ν and τ+ µ+ν ν , which re- e τ µ τ → → sults in three different final states with an ee , µµ or an eµ pair. Simulated Monte Carlo (MC) signal and background events, generated with EvtGen [10], are used to develop signal selection criteria and to study potential backgrounds. We select B candidates using ∆E =√s/2 E tag − B∗tag andm = s (cid:126)p 2,whereE and(cid:126)p aretheCMenergyandthree-momentumvectorofthe ES − ∗B B∗tag ∗Btag Btag respect(cid:113)ively. We require a properly reconstructed Btag to have mES consistent with the mass of a B meson and 0.12<∆E <0.12 GeV. B+ K+τ+τ signal events are required to have a − − → chargedB candidatewithm >5.27GeV/c2 andanon-zeromissingenergy,E ,givenbythe tag ES miss energy component of p . Continuum events are further suppressed using a multivariate likeli- ∗miss hoodselector,basedonsixevent-shapevariableswhichremovesmorethan75%ofthecontinuum events while retaining more than 80% of (signal and background) BB¯ MC events.

Further- − − − more, events with 3.00<m <3.19 GeV/c2 are discarded to remove backgrounds from J/Ψ l+l − resonance.

This correction factor is determined to be 0.913 0.020 and is applied to the ± MC reconstruction efficiency for both signal and background events (Fig. 1 (right)). The most important contributions to the systematic uncertainty include the uncertainty associated with the theoretical model which is evaluated by comparing signal MC sample based on the LCSR [12] theoreticalmodeltothatof[13]anddeterminingthedifferenceinefficiency,whichisfoundtobe 3.0%. Additional uncertainties on ε and N arise due to the modeling of PID selectors (4.8% sig bkg for e+e , 7.0% for µ+µ , and 5.0% for e+µ ) and the π0 veto (3.0%).

StudyofB Kπ+π γ decays − → The V-A structure of the SM weak interaction implies that the circular polarization of the photon emitted in b sγ transitions is predominantly left-handed, with contamination by right- → handed photons suppressed by a factor m /m . Thus, B0 mesons decay mostly to right-handed s b photons while decays of B¯0 mesons produce mainly left-handed photons. Therefore, the mixing- inducedCPasymmetryinB f γ decays,where f isaCPeigenstate,isexpectedtobesmall. CP CP → Thispredictionmaybealteredbynew-physics(NP)processesinwhichoppositehelicityphotons areinvolved. Especially,insomeNPmodels[25],theright-handedcomponentmaybecomparable in magnitude to the left-handed component, without affecting the SM prediction for the inclusive radiativedecayrate.

Because of the irreducible background from B0 K0π+π γ, which is not a CP eigenstate, → S − we have to measure first the time-dependent CP asymmetry parameters S andC which K0ππγ K0ππγ are related to S by S =S /D where the dilution factor D depends on the K0ρ0γ K0ρ0γ K0ππγ K0ρ0γ K0ρ0γ S S S S amplitudesofthetwo-bodydecaysK0ρ(770)0,K (892)+π and(Kπ)+π andcanbecalculated S ∗ − 0 − as shown in [26].
