Shedding new light on weak annihilation B-meson decays

We identify a novel leading-power contribution to the pure weak annihilation non-leptonic B-meson decay amplitudes, which arises from the hard-collinear gluon exchange between the light quark of the bottom meson and the final-state active partons. This interesting observation is naturally expected t...
