文摘By employing the perturbative QCD （pQCD） factorization approach, we calculate the new physics contributions to the four B→Kη（＇） decays in the Standard Model （SM） with a fourth generation of fermions （SM4）, induced by the loop diagrams involving t＇ quark. Within the considered parameter space of the SM4 we find that： （a） the next-to-leading order （NLO） pQCD predictions for the branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries in both the SM and SM4 generally agree with the data within one standard deviation; （b） for Br（B→Kη）, the inclusion of the fourth generation contributions can improve the agreement between the theoretical predictions and the data effectively; （c） however, for Br（B→Kη＇） the decrease due to t＇ loops is disfavored by the data; and, （d） the new physics corrections to the CP-violating asymmetries of the considered decays are only about 10%.
