Abstract
Based on the low energy effective Hamiltonian with generalized factorization, we calculate the new physics contributions to the branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries of the two-body charmless hadronic decays $B \to {\mathrm {PP}}, {\mathrm {PV}}$ from the new strong and electroweak penguin diagrams in the topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) model. The top-pion penguins dominate the new physics corrections, and both new gluonic and electroweak penguins contribute effectively to most decay modes. For tree-dominated decay modes $B \to \pi \pi, \rho \pi$ , etc. the new physics corrections are less than $10\%$ . For decays $B \to K^{(*)} \pi$ , $K^{(*)} \eta$ , $\pi^0 \eta^{(' )}$ , $\eta^{(')}\eta^{(')}$ , $K \overline{K}^0$ , $\overline{K}^{*0} K$ , etc. the new physics enhancements can be rather large (from $- 70\%$ to $\sim 200\%$ ) and are insensitive to the variations of N_c^eff, k², $\eta$ and $m_{\tilde{\pi}}$ within reasonable ranges. For the decays $B^0 \to \phi \pi$ , $\phi \eta^{(')}$ , $K^* \overline{K}^0$ and $\rho^+ K^0$ , $\delta {\cal B}$ is strongly N_c^eff dependent: varying from $-90\%$ to $\sim 1680\%$ in the range of N_c^eff=2- $\infty$ . The new physics corrections to the CP-violating asymmetries ${\cal A}_{CP}$ vary greatly for different B decay channels. For five measured CP asymmetries of the $B \to K \pi, K \eta^{\prime}, \omega \pi$ decays, $\delta {\cal A}_{CP}$ is only about $20\%$ and will be masked by large theoretical uncertainties. The new physics enhancements to interesting $B \to K \eta^{\prime}$ decays are significant in size ( $\sim 50\%$ ), insensitive to the variations of the input parameters and hence lead to a plausible interpretation for the unexpectedly large $B \to K \eta^{\prime}$ decay rates. The TC2 model predictions for branching ratios and CP-violating asymmteries of all fifty-seven $B \to {\mathrm {PP, PV}}$ decay modes are consistent with the available data within one or two standard deviations.
