Abstract

We obtain predictions for B(s)e+eγB_{(s)}\to e^+e^-\gamma and B(s)μ+μγB_{(s)}\to \mu^+\mu^-\gamma decays. All the contributions containing long-distance QCD effects are calculated in the framework of relativistic quark model. The contributions of the light vector-meson resonances related to the virtual photon emission from valence quarks of the BB-meson are included. The highest branching ratios for the radiative leptonic B-decays are B(Bˉs0e+eγ)=18.8×109{\cal B}(\bar B^0_s\to e^+e^-\gamma)=18.8\times10^{-9} and B(Bs0μ+μγ)=12.2×109{\cal B}(B^0_s\to \mu^+\mu^-\gamma)=12.2\times10^{-9}. We also give the distribution of the foward-backward asymmetry.
