We consider the Heavy Quark Expansion (HQE) for the nonleptonic decay rates of heavy hadrons, and compute the NLO QCD corrections to power terms up to order $1/m_Q^2$. We neglect the masses of the final-state quarks, so the application of…
In this paper we compute the NLO QCD corrections for the inclusive nonleptonic decay rates of $B$-hadrons at subleading power of the heavy quark expansion. In particular, we discuss the coefficient of the chromomagnetic moment parameter…
The total decay widths of heavy mesons can be systematically calculated in terms of an expansion in the two parameters $1/m_Q$ and $\alpha_s(m_Q)$, where $Q=c,b$ denotes the heavy quark. The dominant contributions to meson lifetime…
We compute next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the partonic processes $b\to c \bar{u} d$ and $b\to c \bar{c} s$, which constitute the dominant decay channels in standard model predictions for $B$-meson lifetimes within the…
We present the results of a calculation of the perturbative QCD corrections for the semileptonic inclusive width of a heavy flavored meson. Within the Heavy Quark Expansion we analytically compute the QCD correction to the coefficient of…
We compute the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD corrections to b \to c l \bar \nu_l decay rate at a fully differential level. Arbitrary cuts on kinematic variables of the decay products can be imposed. Our computation can be used to…
We calculate the next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the leptonic invariant mass ($q^2$) spectrum of semileptonic $b \to c$ inclusive decays, taking into account the mass of the charm quark and the charged lepton in the final…
The perturbative QCD corrections to the nonleptonic decay rate of the $b$ quark are discussed. By considering the limit where the final charmed quarks are slow, it is argued that the coefficients of the $\alpha_s^2$ terms, corresponding to…
The decay of B mesons can be predicted within the Heavy Quark Expansion as the decay of a free bottom quark plus corrections which are suppressed by powers of $1/m_b$. This contribution to Loops&Legs 2024 describes the calculation of the…
This paper presents $\alpha_s$ corrections to the inclusive semitauonic $B \to X_c \tau \bar{\nu}_\tau$ decay width and leptonic invariant mass spectrum up to order $1/m_b^3$ in the heavy quark expansion. Analytical results with full…
We compute the QCD corrections to the decay rate difference in the $B_s-\bar B_s$ system, $\Delta\Gamma_{B_s}$, in the next-to-leading logarithmic approximation using the heavy quark expansion approach. Going beyond leading order in QCD is…
We calculate the QCD corrected effective Hamiltonian for $B\bbar$--Mixing in heavy quark effective theory including corrections of the order $\Lambda_{QCD} / m_b$. The matrix elements of the subleading operators are estimated using the…
We present an analytical calculation of the $\alpha_s$ corrections for the coefficient of $\rho_D/m_Q^3$ term in the heavy quark expansion for the inclusive semileptonic decays of heavy hadrons, such as $B \to X_c \ell \bar{\nu}$. The full…
We show that one can re-arrange the Heavy Quark Expansion for inclusive weak decays of charmed hadrons in such a way that the resulting expansion is an expansion in $\Lambda_{\rm QCD} / m_c$ and $\alpha_s (m_c)$ with order-one coefficients.…
We compute perturbative QCD corrections to the lifetime splitting between the charged and neutral $B$ meson in the framework of the heavy quark expansion. These next-to-leading logarithmic corrections are necessary for a meaningful use of…
We study the impact of third-order QCD corrections for several kinematic moments of the inclusive semileptonic $B$ decays, to first order in the $1/m_b$ expansion. We consider the first four moments of the charged-lepton energy $E_\ell$…
Theoretical predictions of beauty hadron lifetimes, based on the heavy quark expansion up to and including order 1/mb^2, do not to reproduce the experimental measurements of the lifetime ratios tau(B+)/tau(Bd) and tau(Lambdab)/tau(Bd).…
Lifetime differences of heavy hadrons can be consistently computed in heavy-quark expansion. The leading effects appear through spectator interactions at order 1/m_b^3. We compute a well-defined subset of 1/m_b^4 corrections to the lifetime…
Inclusive heavy-flavour decays can be described through $1/m_Q$ expansions derived from QCD with the help of an operator product expansion. I sketch their methodology and apply them first to semileptonic B decays; $|V(cb)|$ can be extracted…
We extend previous computations of the second order QCD corrections to semileptonic b \to c inclusive transitions, to the case where the charged lepton in the final state is massive. This allows accurate description of b \to c \tau \bar…
