Penguin-mediated B Decays at Belle

Abstract

We report on the results of penguin-mediated B decays at the Belle experiment. The analyses were based on approximately 32 million BBˉB\bar{B} events collected at the Υ(4S)\Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+ee^+e^- storage ring. The bsγb \to s \gamma transition was studied through exclusive decays: BKγB \to K^{*} \gamma, B0K2(1430)0γB^0 \to K_{2}^{*}(1430)^0 \gamma, B+K+ππγB^+ \to K^+\pi^-\pi^- \gamma, B+K0π+γB^+ \to K^{*0} \pi^+ \gamma and B+K+ρ0γB^+ \to K^+\rho^0 \gamma. The bs+b \to s \ell^+ \ell^- transition was searched through both exclusive decays, BK()+B \to K^{(*)} \ell^+ \ell^-, and inclusive decay, BXs+B \to X_{s} \ell^+ \ell^-. We observed the decay processes B+K+π+πγB^+ \to K^+\pi^+\pi^- \gamma and BK+B \to K \ell^+ \ell^- for the first time.
