Method for Extracting the Quark Mixing Parameter cos{alpha} via B{sup {+-}} {yields}{pi}{sup {+-}}e{sup +}e{sup -}

We show that it is possible to extract the weak mixing angle {alpha} via a measurement of the rate for B{sup {+-}}{yields}{pi}{sup {+-}}e{sup +} e{sup -} . The sensitivity to cos {alpha} results from the interference between the long and short distance contributions. The short distance contribution...
