We discuss order 1/m_b^4 and 1/m_b^5 corrections in inclusive semileptonic decay of a $B$ meson. We identify relevant hadronic matrix elements of dimension seven and eight and estimate them using the ground-state saturation approximation.…
We studied radiative B meson decays with the Belle detector. We measured the following branching fractions; Br(B->K*0(892)\gamma) = (49.6 \pm 6.7 \pm 4.5) x 10^{-6}, Br(B->K*+(892)\gamma) = (38.9 \pm 9.3 \pm 4.1) x 10^{-6}, Br(B->Xs\gamma)…

We report a measurement of the rate for $B \to \eta' X_s$ transitions where the $\eta'$ meson has center-of-mass momentum in the range 2.0 to 2.7\gevc and $X_s$ represents a system comprising a kaon and up to four pions. Our study is based…
We report measurements of the absolute branching fractions $\mathcal{B}(B_s^0 \to D_s^{\pm} X)$, $\mathcal{B}(B_s^0 \to D^0/\bar{D}^0 X)$, and $\mathcal{B}(B_s^0 \to D^{\pm} X)$, where the latter is measured for the first time. The results…

We calculate the radiative corrections to the nonleptonic inclusive B decay mode $b\to c ud$ taking into account the charm quark mass. The corrections increase the decay rate by (4--8)\%, depending on the renormalization point. Using these…
We present the first measurement of the ratio of branching fractions of inclusive semileptonic $B$-meson decays, $R(X_{e/\mu}) = \mathcal{B}(B\to X \, e \, \nu) / \mathcal{B}(B\to X \, \mu \, \nu)$, a precision test of electron-muon…
