The abstract, sentence by sentence
Motivated by the large branching ratios observed for the process $B\to\eta^{\prime}K$, we examine critically all the ingredients that go into estimates of B decays into two light pseudoscalars. Within factorization approximation, we examine several assumptions on the input parameters that could have a strong bearing on the predictions. Among these are (i) the QCD scale $\mu$ (ii) value of the form factors (iii) value of the light quark masses, and in particular $m_s$ (iv) the value $\xi=1/N_c$, (v) charm content of $\eta^{\prime}$. It is possible to account for all the data without invoking new physics, though future experiments will provide tighter constraints on the parameter space. We fin that CP violating asymmetries are in the observable range for some modes.

It is possible to account for all the data without invoking new physics, though future experiments will provide tighter constraints on the parameter space. We fin that CP violating asymmetries are in the observable range for some modes.

-
A good fit for the majority of the parameters has been achieved indicating that the standard model is quite satisfactory in accounting for these processes.
-
Thus, theoretical scenarios with a substantially enhanced Wilson coefficient of the chromomagnetic dipole operator (as compared to the SM) and/or those with a substantial color-singlet $c\bar{c}$ component in the wave function of $\eta^\prime$ are not required by these data.
