摘要
We calculate the hard-scattering kernels relevant to the negative-helicity decay amplitude in B decays to two vector mesons in the framework of QCD factorisation. We then perform a comprehensive analysis of the 34 B -> V V decays, including B-s decays and the complete set of polarisation observables. We find considerable uncertainties from weak annihilation and the non-factorisation of spectator-scattering. Large longitudinal polarisation is expected with certainty only for a few tree-dominated colour-allowed modes, which receive small penguin and spectator-scattering contributions. This allows for an accurate determination of the CKM angle alpha (or gamma) from S-L(rho rho) resulting in alpha = (85.6(-7.3)(+7.4))degrees. We also emphasize that the rho K* system is ideal for an investigation of electroweak penguin effects. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
