Description
Branching ratios and are regularly updated in the Review of Particle Physics by the PDG group, and from their 2022 values one finds , in disagreement with theoretical estimates. To provide new clues about this discrepancy we extract the value of from recent cross section measurements of processes and . We achieve this by a common description of both charged and neutral data by the Unitary & Analytic model. This new analysis leads to the value for , which is significantly larger than the value from PDG 2022 branching ratios, and in a relatively good agreement with theoretical estimates.
