Abstract
We present the first global phenomenological fit of inclusive observables to all available experimental data allowing for generic dimension-six New Physics interactions in the Weak Effective Theory. The fit includes both New Physics Wilson coefficients and non-perturbative QCD parameters. New Physics contributions are calculated including power corrections up to and perturbative QCD corrections up to . We find no significant preference for New Physics and obtain bounds on the size of the relevant Wilson Coefficients competitive with those coming from exclusive modes.
