Measurement of Lepton Momentum Moments in the Decay bar{B} \to X \ell \barν and Determination of Heavy Quark Expansion Parameters and |V_cb|

A. H. Mahmood

We measure the primary lepton momentum spectrum in B-bar to X l nu decays, for p_l > 1.5 GeV/c in the B rest frame. From this, we calculate various moments of the spectrum. In part…
