Intrinsic Charm in B-Meson Decays

Light cone hadron wave functions support Fock states of arbitrarily high particle number: their heavy quark content arises naturally through QCD interactions. We discuss what role c\bar c pairs, intrinsic to a hadron’s structure, can play in B-meson decays. The effects can be prominent in hadronic decays for which the tree-level contributions are Cabibbo-suppressed, as in B\to \pi K decay, and they mimic ``charming penguin’’ contributions.
