相关论文: A dynamical approach to semi-inclusive B decays
We concisely review semileptonic B decays, focussing on recent progress on both theoretical and experimental sides.
Strong interaction effects are addressed in connection to extracting |V_{cb}|. A comprehensive approach is described not relying on a 1/m_c expansion; it allows a percent accuracy without ad hoc assumptions about higher-order effects. An…
We review recent progress in exclusive B --> D^(*) and inclusive B --> X(u) semileptonic B decays
The study of inclusive semileptonic decays of $B$ mesons is analyzed from the viewpoint of probing hadron structure and strong interactions. General formulas for the differential decay rates are given in terms of the structure functions in…
We describe two complementary ways to show the presence of higher order effects in the 1/m_Q expansion for inclusive B decays that have been dubbed "Intrinsic Charm". Apart from the lessons they can teach us about QCD's nonperturbative…
We discuss some issues on factorization of long distance effects for semi-inclusive B decay spectra in full QCD and in the effective theory.
The present status of the measurement of the inclusive semileptonic $B$ decays is reviewed. In particular the determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$ is discussed and some future prospects…
Recent progress in calculating O(alpha_s^2) corrections to inclusive and exclusive semileptonic b-->c transitions is reviewed. The impact of these corrections on the |V_cb| determination from both inclusive and exclusive B decays is…
Some long-standing problems in the experimental data for semileptonic b -> c l nu decay rates have resisted attempts to resolve them, despite substantial efforts. We summarize the issues, and propose a possible resolution, which may…
We present a determination of $|V_{cb}|$ from semileptonic B decays that includes resummation of supposedly large perturbative corrections, originating from the running of the strong coupling. We argue that the low value of the BLM scale…
We determine $|V_{cb}|$ from inclusive semileptonic B decays including resummation of supposedly large perturbative corrections, which originate from the running of the strong coupling. We argue that the low value of the BLM scale found…
This talk is a short review on the theoretical issues and uncertainties in the calculation of partial decay rates in inclusive B decays. The main emphasis is on charmless semileptonic decays, the B -> X(s) gamma photon spectrum, and the…
I review the use of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory in the computation of total rates and differential kinematic distributions in inclusive semileptonic and radiative B decays. Particular attention is paid to strategies for the extraction…
We consider in the soft-collinear effective theory semi-inclusive hadronic B decays, B-> XM, in which an energetic light meson M near the endpoint recoils against an inclusive jet X. We focus on a subset of decays where the spectator quark…
One approach to monitoring a dynamic system relies on decomposition of the system into weakly interacting subsystems. An earlier paper introduced a notion of weak interaction called separability, and showed that it leads to exact…
I review some of the recent developments in the theoretical description of weak inclusive decays of heavy mesons. The topics cover the value of $|V_{cb}|$ as extracted from semileptonic inclusive decays and a short discussion of the…
We review recent experimental and theoretical developments in inclusive semileptonic B -> Xc l nu decays. In particular, we discuss the determination of |Vcb| and of the heavy quark masses through fits based on the Operator Product…
The prospects for a precise and model independent determination of $|V_{ub}|$ from inclusive and exclusive semileptonic B decays are reviewed.
We calculate the semi-inclusive processes B $\rightarrow X_{s} \eta_c$ and relate it to B $\rightarrow X_{s} \psi$ in next to leading order QCD, and show how it can be used to determine an accurate value of $f_{\eta_{c}}$. The exclusive…
Recent analyses of the LEP and Y(4S) data have better outlined the picture of semileptonic B decays. Results on inclusive and exclusive decay branching fractions and on the extraction of the Vub and Vcb elements of the CKM mixing matrix are…
