The heavy quark expansion for lifetimes: Towards the QCD corrections to power suppressed terms
Thomas Mannel, Daniel Moreno, Alexei A. Pivovarov
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 . We neglect t…
Alternative Treatment of the Quark Mass in the Heavy Quark Expansion
Anastasia Boushmelev, Thomas Mannel, K. Keri Vos
The treatment of the quark mass plays an important role when it comes to increasing the precision of the predictions of the heavy quark expansion for inclusive heavy hadron decays.…
and form factors from QCD light-cone sum rules
Nico Gubernari, Alexander Khodjamirian, Rusa Mandal +1
We perform the first calculation of form factors in the semileptonic decays and using QCD light-cone sum rules (…
Impact of background effects on the inclusive determination
Thomas Mannel, Muslem Rahimi, K. Keri Vos
The determination of the CKM element from inclusive semileptonic decays has reached a high precision thanks to a combination of theoretical and experim…
Master Integrals for Inclusive Weak Decays of Heavy Flavours at Next-to-Leading Order
Th. Mannel, D. Moreno, A. A. Pivovarov
We present analytical results for master integrals emerging in the computation of differential rates for inclusive weak decays of heavy flavors at next-to-leading order (NLO) in QC…
The Heavy Quark Expansion for the Charm Quark
Th. Mannel, D. Moreno, A. A. Pivovarov
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 $Λ_{\rm QCD} /…
