Abstract
Inspired by the small longitudinal polarizations (LPs) of decays observed by BELLE and BABAR, we revise the theoretical uncertainties of perturbative QCD approach for determining hard scales of B decays, we find that the LPs of could approach to 60% while the branching ratios (BRs) could be around . In addition, we also study the BRs and polarization fractions of and decays. For those tree dominant and color-allowed processes in decays, we get that the BRs of are while their LPs are close to unity. Interestingly, due to significant tree contributions, we find that the BR(LP) of could be around ; and due to the tree and electroweak penguin, the BR(LP) of could be around .
