Abstract

We study a new KππK\rightarrow\pi\pi decay channel with gluons in intermediate state which is normally neglected within the factorization framework. Both short-distance and long-distance parts of the amplitude are calculated. The chiral Lagrangian approach is used for obtaining the long-distance contribution. The nonperturbative contribution gives an additional enhancement to KππK\rightarrow\pi\pi decay amplitude with ΔI=1/2\Delta I=1/2. A sizable violation of factorization in the p4p^4 order of chiral perturbation theory is found.
