In this work, we improve the precision of BˆK to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) and provide world averages for both 3- and 4-favour theories. In the course of this, as our main technical development, we carry out the two-loop matching between the RI-(S)MOM and MS schemes. Our world averages combine all available lattice data, including conversion between the 3- and 4-favour theories as appropriate. We obtain the result Bˆ (f=3) K = 0.7627(60), which comprises the complete set of 3- and 4-favour lattice results and can be used directly in phenomenological applications. The error is dominated by lattice uncertainties and missing higher-order corrections (residual scale dependence). Our averages include a PDG rescaling factor of 1.28 refecting a mild tension among the lattice inputs after inclusion of NNLO corrections in the scheme conversion and matching across favour thresholds. Our averages imply an updated value |ϵK| = 2.171(65)pert.(71)non-pert.(153)param. ×10−3 . We briefy discuss applications of our results to D-meson mixing.}, organization = {MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 - FEDER/UE (grant PID2022-139466NB-C21)}, organization = {Consejería de Universidad, Investigación e Innovación, Gobierno de España and Unión Europea – NextGenerationEU (AST22 6.5 and CNS2022-136024)}, organization = {UK Science and Technology Facilities Council (grant ST/X000796/1)}, publisher = {Springer}, keywords = {CP Violation}, keywords = {Higher-Order Perturbative Calculations}, keywords = {Kaons}, title = {RI-(S)MOM to MS conversion for BK at two-loop order}, doi = {10.1007/JHEP09(2025)011}, author = {Gorbahn, Martin and Jäger, Sebastian and Kvedaraitè, Sandra}, }
