The hadronic invariant mass spectrum for the inclusive charmless semileptonic decay $B\to X_u e \bar\nu_e$ is studied. Particular attention is paid to the region $s_H<m_D^2$, which may be useful for extracting the value of $|V_{ub}|$. The…

We present a selfconsistent method for treating nonperturbative effects in inclusive nonleptonic and semileptonic decays of heavy flavour hadrons. These effects give rise to powerlike corrections $\propto 1/m_Q^n\,$, $n \ge 2$ with $m_Q$…
We derive the lepton spectrum in semileptonic beauty decays from a nonperturbative treatment of QCD; it is based on an expansion in $1/m_Q$ with $m_Q$ being the heavy flavour quark mass. The leading corrections arising on the $1/m_Q$ level…

The differential decay spectrum $d\Gamma/dE_e dq^2$ for the semileptonic decay of an unpolarized hadron containing a b-quark, and the decay spectrum $d\Gamma/dE_e dq^2 d\!\cos\theta$ for polarized $\Lambda_b$ decay are computed to second…
We present a measurement of moments of the inclusive hadronic-mass and -energy spectrum in semileptonic $\bar{B} \to X_{c} \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}$ decays. This study is based on a sample of 232 million $\Upsilon(4S) \to B\bar{B}$ decays…
We calculate the hadronic tensor for inclusive semileptonic B decay to O(alpha_s). This allows O(alpha_s Lambda_{QCD}/mb) corrections to hadronic invariant mass observables to be directly evaluated with experimentally required cuts on phase…
