K→πℓ+ℓ−form factor in the large-Ncand cutoff regularization method

Abstract

Bardeen-Buras-G\'{e}rard have proposed a large N$_c$ method to evaluate hadronic weak matrix elements to attack for instance the determination of the $\Delta I= \frac{1}{2}$-rule and $\mathrm{Re}(\frac{\epsilon'}{\epsilon})$. Here we test this method to the determination of the form factor parameters $a_+$ and $b_+$ in the decays $K^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \ell^+ \ell^- $ and $K_S \rightarrow \pi ^0 \ell^+ \ell^-$. The results are encouraging: in particular after a complete treatment of Vector Meson Dominance (VMD).
