Abstract |
Lepton number violating meson decays, such as M-1(-) -> M-2(+) l(1)(-)l(2)(-), provide constraints on d = 9 Delta L = 2 operators. Renormalization group equation (RGE)-improved bounds on the Wilson coefficients of these operators have been presented in the literature, taking into account perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) one-loop corrections and the corresponding operator mixing. Here, we present for the first time the contribution of connected diagrams to the hadronic matrix elements < M2 vertical bar Oh vertical bar M-1 >. These diagrams, usually overlooked under the assumption that < M2 vertical bar Oh|M-1 > similar to < M-2 vertical bar J(q3q4)vertical bar 0 > x < 0 vertical bar J(q1q2)vertical bar M-1 > >> < M-2 vertical bar J(q3q2) x J(q1q4 vertical bar)M(1 >), can give indeed a significant contribution to the matrix element. Including these connected diagrams is but the first step toward a full nonperturbative computation of the long-range QCD effects in these operators, that should be performed using lattice field theory techniques. However, connected diagrams represent the leading order in the 1/N-c expansion of the QCD nonperturbative effects and thus our work can be understood as a realistic, first approximation to a complete calculation of the long-range part of the matrix elements. |
