How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The exclusive BV(P)l+l- and BV decays, with a vector (V=K*, , …) or pseudo scalar (P=K, , …) meson in the final state are important for the search for flavour-changing new physics. In this paper we study one of the exclusive rare decays of pseudo scalar B mesons: BKl+l- by using a relativistic constituent quark model, including infrared connement. We calculate the relevant form factors of the (BP) transitions in the full kinematical range of momentum transfer. The calculated form factors are used to evaluate differential decay rates and polarization observables. We present numerical results on these observables using the covariant quark model. This model can be viewed as an effective quantum field theory approach based on an interaction Lagrangian of hadrons interacting with their constituent quarks. Universal and reliable predictions for exclusive processes involving both mesons composed from a quark and antiquark and baryons composed from three quarks result from this approach.
