Description
We design new observables available from the angular distributions of the decay
$B \to K^0 ell^- ell^+$ with high sensitivity to specific new phsyics operators.
We present a NLO analysis of all observables based on the QCD factorization approach
in the low-dilepton mass region and make the uncertaintities due to the $\Lambda/m_b$ corrections manifest and finally analyse the sensitivity of the new observables to new physics.
We explore the experimental sensitivities at LHCb and SuperLHCb based on a full-angular fit method. We also show that the previously discussed transversity amplitude $AT_1$ cannot be measured at the LHCb experiment or at future $B$ factory experiments as it requires a measurement of the spin of the final state particles.
We also analyse CP violating observables in this decay mode and critically discuss their sensitivity to new physics.
