Mesonic interactions and their contribution to strong phases in flavor physics

Abstract

We analyze the contributions of hadronic final-state interactions to the strong phases generated in the B -> Kpipi weak decays. To this end, we develop an alternative approach to the commonly employed isobar model based upon scalar and vector form factors for pion-pion and pion-kaon interactions.
