Constraints on Unparticle Interaction from $b\to s γ$

Abstract

We study unparticle effects on $b\to s γ$. The unparticle contributions can contribute significantly to both left- and right-handed chirality amplitudes. Using available experimental data and SM calculation for $B\to X_s γ$, we obtain constraints on various vector and scalar unparticle couplings. We find that the constraints sensitively depend on the unparticle dimension $d_\U$. For $d_\U$ close to one, the constraints can be very stringent. The constraints become weak when $d_\U$ is increased. In general the constraints on scalar unparticle couplings are weaker than those for vector unparticle couplings. Sizeable coupling strength for unparticles with quarks is still allowed. We also show that polarization measurement in $Λ_b \to Λγ$ can further constrain the couplings.
