Abstract: (APS)
We extend the theoretical prediction for the width difference in the mixing of neutral mesons in the Standard Model to next-to-next-to-leading order in . To this aim, we calculate three-loop diagrams with two current-current operators analytically. In the matching between and effective theories, we regularize the infrared divergences dimensionally and take into account all relevant evanescent operators. Further elements of the calculation are the two-loop renormalization matrix for the operators and the corrections to the finite renormalization that ensures the suppression of the operator at two-loop order. Our theoretical prediction reads if expressed in terms of the bottom mass in the scheme and for the use of the potential-subtracted mass. While the controversy on affects both and , the ratio is not affected by the uncertainty in .Note:
