Kaon bag parameter ($B_K$)

For relativistically normalized kaon states and $Q=(\bar{s}{\gamma }_{\mu }(1-{\gamma }^5)d)(\bar{s}{\gamma }^{\mu }(1-{\gamma }^5)d)$, define $⟨{\bar{K}}^0|Q|K^0⟩=(8/3)f_K^2{m}_K^2{B}_K$. The dimensionless kaon bag parameter measures strong interaction corrections to the vacuum-insertion normalization. The coefficient and matrix element must be defined in the same renormalization scheme and at the same scale. Dividing by $2m_K$ gives the corresponding two-state mixing-Hamiltonian normalization.
