One-loop matching of Delta S=2 four-quark operators with improved staggered fermions

/ Abstract
We compute O({alpha}{sub s}) lattice-to-continuum perturbative matching coefficients for the {delta}S=2 flavor changing four-quark operators for the Asqtad improved staggered action. In conjunction with lattice simulations with three flavors of light, dynamical quarks, our results yield an unquenched determination of B{sub K}, the parameter that determines the amount of indirect CP violation in the neutral kaon system. Its value is an important input for the unitarity triangle analysis of weak decays.
