Description

We study a new $K\rightarrowππ$ decay channel with gluons in intermediate state which is normally neglected within the factorization framework. Both short-distance and long-distance parts of the amplitude are calculated. The chiral Lagrangian approach is used for obtaining the long-distance contribution. The nonperturbative contribution gives an additional enhancement to $K\rightarrowππ$ decay amplitude with $ΔI=1/2$. A sizable violation of factorization in the $p^4$ order of chiral perturbation theory is found.
