Abstract

The doubly weak transition bddsˉb\to dd{\bar s} is highly suppressed in the standard model, which makes it a potential channel to explore new physics signals. We present a study of the exclusive two body wrong sign weak decay B0K+π\smash{\overline B}^0\to K^+\pi^- belonging to this class within the perturbative QCD approach. We perform a model independent analysis for various effective dimension-6 operators, in which large effects are possible. We further analyze the considered process in example models such as Randall-Sundrum model, including the custodially protected and the bulk-Higgs Randall-Sundrum model. Exploring the experimentally favored parameter spaces of these models leads to a large and significant enhancement of the decay rate, compared to the standard model result, which might be accessible in future experiments. We propose to look for the wrong sign decay B0K+π\smash{\overline B}^0\to K^+\pi^- via flavour-tagged time-dependent analyses, which can be performed at LHCb and Belle-II.
