Recently, it was shown that in inclusive B -> Xs l+ l- decay, an angular decomposition provides three independent (q^2 dependent) observables. A strategy was formulated to extract all measurable Wilson coefficients in B -> Xs l+ l- from a…
The inclusive B -> Xs l+ l- decay rate in the large q^2 region (q^2 > m_{\psi'}^2) receives significant nonperturbative corrections. The resulting uncertainties can be drastically reduced by normalizing the rate to the B -> Xu l nu rate…
We derive the triply differential spectrum for the inclusive rare decay B -> Xs l+ l- in the shape function region, in which Xs is jet-like with $mX^2 \lesssim mb \Lambda_QCD$. Experimental cuts make this a relevant region. The perturbative…
The goal of the SIMBA collaboration is to provide a global fit to the available measurements of inclusive B -> X_s gamma and B -> X_u l nu decays. By performing a global fit one is able to simultaneously determine the relevant…
We evaluate the O(alpha_em/alpha_s) correction to the rate of B -> X_s gamma decay, i.e. we resum all the 0[ alpha_em ln M_W^2/m_b^2 x (alpha_s ln M_W^2/m_b^2)^n ] corrections for n=0,1,2,... Our calculation differs from the previously…
We present a concise review of the recent theoretical progress concerning the standard model calculation of the inclusive radiative Bbar -> X_s gamma decay. Particular attention is thereby devoted to the calculations of the…
We review the theoretical understanding of the branching ratio and photon-energy spectrum in B -> Xs gamma decays at next-to-leading order in QCD, including consistently the effects of Fermi motion. For the Standard Model, we obtain B(B ->…
We point out that in inclusive B -> Xs l+ l- decay an angular decomposition provides a third (q^2 dependent) observable sensitive to a different combination of Wilson coefficients than the rate and the forward-backward asymmetry. Since a…
The experimental and theoretical status of the inclusive decay B -> X_s gamma is briefly summarized. Results from a very recent theoretical analysis are reported. An ~11% increase in the SM prediction for BR[ B -> X_s gamma] is found after…
We calculate the leading order corrections to the anti-B --> X(s) gamma decay in the standard model with two large flat universal extra dimensions. We find that the contributions involving the exchange of Kaluza-Klein modes of the physical…
We calculate the decay distributions for inclusive B -> X_s gamma and B -> X_u l nu decays in the endpoint region, where radiative corrections are large. The computation is done using effective field theory methods. The matching…
The current status of B -> Xs gamma decay rate calculations is summarized. Missing ingredients at the NNLO level are listed. The global normalization factor and non-perturbative effects are discussed. Arguments are presented that results…
A theoretical analysis of the partial inclusive B-->X_s gamma decay rate with a cut E_gamma>E_0 on photon energy must deal with short-distance contributions associated with three different mass scales: the hard scale m_b, an intermediate…
We derive a class of formulae relating moments of B -> Xu l nu to B -> Xs gamma in the shape function region, where m_X^2 ~ m_b Lambda_QCD. We also derive an analogous class of formulae involving the decay B -> Xs l+ l-. These results…
We present the results of the O(alpha_s) two-loop virtual corrections to the differential decay width dGamma(B -> X_s l+ l-)/ds, where s is the invariant mass squared of the lepton pair. Those contributions from gluon bremsstrahlung which…
We present a concise review of the recent theoretical progress concerning the standard model calculation of the inclusive radiative anti-B --> X(s) gamma decay. Particular attention is thereby devoted to the calculations of the…
By combining a recent estimate of the total B-->X_s gamma branching fraction at O(alpha_s^2) with a detailed analysis of the effects of a cut E_gamma>1.6GeV on photon energy, a prediction for the partial B-->X_s gamma branching fraction at…
The total B->Xs gamma decay rate and the CKM-matrix element Vub play an important role in finding indirect evidence for new physics affecting the flavor sector of the Standard Model, complementary to direct searches at the LHC and Tevatron.…
We calculate O(alpha_s) two-loop virtual corrections to the differential decay width dGamma(B --> X_s l^+ l^-)/ds, where s is the invariant mass squared of the lepton pair. We also include those contributions from gluon bremsstrahlung which…
We give a summary about the various contributions which have to be calculated in order to obtain the next-to-leading logarithmic result for the branching ratio $BR(B \to X_s \gamma)$. Combining all these ingredients, which were obtained by…
