We investigate the semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of $B_s$ mesons. We work within the context of nonrelativistic constituent quark models. We calculate the different form factors that parameterize the hadron matrix elements.
We present a measurement of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |V_ub|, based on 253 fb^-1 of data collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB e^+e^- asymmetric collider. Events are tagged by fully reconstructing one of the B…
The determination of |Vub| from inclusive semileptonic B decays is limited by uncertainties in modelling the decay distributions in b->ulnu transitions. The largest uncertainties arise from the limited knowledge of the appropriate b quark…
It is shown that measuring the lepton invariant mass spectrum in inclusive semileptonic B -> X_u l nu decay yields a model independent determination of |V_{ub}|. Unlike the lepton energy and hadronic invariant mass spectra, nonperturbative…

We have analyzed the semileptonic decays $B\rightarrow D\ell\nu$ and $B\rightarrow D^*\ell\nu$ on the full suite of MILC (2+1)-flavor asqtad ensembles with lattice spacings as small as 0.045 fm and light-to-strange-quark mass ratios as low…
We present a complete $O(\alpha_s^2)$ correction to the differential width of the inclusive semileptonic decay $b\to cl\nu_l$ at the kinematical point of vanishing invariant mass of the leptons, $q^2=0$. Together with the recently computed…
We present results for the moments of observed spectra in inclusive semileptonic B-meson decays to charm hadrons Bbar --> X_c l- nubar. Moments of the hadronic-mass and the combined mass-and-energy spectra for different minimum electron or…
We propose a model independent method to determine $|V_{ub}|$ from the energy spectrum of the charged lepton in inclusive semileptonic $B$ decays. The method includes perturbative QCD corrections as well as nonperturbative ones.
We present a combined measurement of Rb = \Gamma(Z -> bb) / \Gamma(Z ->hadrons) and the semileptonic branching ratio of b quarks in Z decays, BR(b-> l nu X), using double-tag methods. Two analyses are performed on one million hadronic Z…

We study the semileptonic differential decay rates of $B_c$ meson to S-wave charmonia, $\eta_c$ and $J/\Psi$, at the next-to-leading order accuracy in the framework of NRQCD. In the heavy quark limit, $m_b \to \infty$, we obtain…

Physics beyond the Standard Model could be measured indirectly, through its effects on Standard Model observables. One place to look for such effects is in the semileptonic decays of B mesons. In order to constrain the possible role of new…
