Summary
We discuss decays of the type B → B′ + γ with |ΔS|=1 as a means of studying the weak-mass transition. Only transitions involving neutral hyperons are sensitive to this term. We also discuss the direct-emission amplitudes in relation to models of nonleptonic weak interactions.
Riassunto
Si discutono i decadimenti del tipo B → B′ + γ con |ΔS|=1 come mezzi per studiare le transizioni di massa debole. Solo le transizioni che coinvolgono iperoni neutri sono sensibili a questo termine. Si discutono anche le ampiezze di emissione diretta in relazione ai modelli delle interazioni deboli non leptoniche.
Реэюме
Мы обсуждаем распады типа B → B′ + γ c |ΔS|=1, как средство для иэучения скабого массового перехода. Только переходы, включаюшие нейтральные гипероны, являются сушественными к зтому члену. Мы также обсуждаем амплитуды прямой змиссии в свяэи с моделями нелептонных слабых вэаимодействий.
