Abstract

Using the idea of the penguin box expansion we find an analytic expression for ε′ ε in the Standard Model as a function of mt, ms (mc) and two non-perturbative parameters B6( 1 2) and B8( 3 2). This formula includes next-to-leading QCD/QED short distance effects calculated recently by means of the operator product expansion and renormalization group techniques. We also derive an analytic expression for the upper bound on ε′ ε as a function of |Vcb|, |Vub/Vcb|, BK and other relevant parameters. Numerical examples of the bound are given.
