Purpose of the accord

The accord will provide model independent parametrization of flavor related quantities based on the existing SLHA structure. That will allow to different programs to talk and to be interfaced, and to users to have a clear and well-defined result that can eventually be used for different purposes.

Interested people

Genevieve BELANGER, Fawzi BOUDJEMA, Sven HEINEMEYER, Sabine KRAML, Nazila MAHMOUDI, Margarete MUHLLEITNER, Will REECE, Juergen REUTER, Pietro SLAVICH

Current proposal (status 24/06/09)

Each block's name links to a respective discussion page where you can find more information and make suggestions for modifications and improvements. Please don't modify the current proposal unless a consensus is reached on the discussion subpage. For general comments on the FLHA, not related to a specific block, you can also use the discussion page associated to this page.

It might be better to split the Wilson coefficients to two blocks: Delta_F=1 and Delta_F=2.

Block Flavor observables

Block FOBS  # Flavor observables
#process observable value
    1     1     2.97350499e-04   # BR(b->s gamma)
    1     2     8.25882011e-02   # Delta0(B->K* gamma)
    2     1     3.46978963e-09   # BR(B_s->mu+ mu-)
    3     1     1.09699841e-04   # BR(B_u->tau nu)
    3     2     9.96640362e-01   # R(B_u->tau nu)
    4     1     6.96556180e-03   # BR(B+->D0 tau nu)
    4     2     2.97261612e-01   # BR(B+->D0 tau nu)/BR(B+-> D0 e nu)
    5     1     4.81251996e-02   # BR(D_s->tau nu)
    6     1     4.96947301e-03   # BR(D_s->mu nu)
    7     1     6.45414388e-01   # BR(K->mu nu)/BR(pi->mu nu)
    7     2     9.99985822e-01   # R_l23

The numbering of the observables is not set yet.

Block theoretical errors

Block FOBSERR  # Theoretical error for flavor observables
   11     2.97350499e-04   # BR(b->s gamma)
