Inclusive charmless semileptonic decay of Λ_b and Br(b ---> X_u l ν_l)
Somasundaram Arunagiri, Hitoshi Yamamoto
We study the inclusive charmless semileptonic decay of , , in the framework of heavy quark expansion and find that the rate is substantially enhanced by spe…
dEdx Particle Identification for Collider Detectors
Hitoshi Yamamoto
We review some basic features of dE/dx particle identification that are relevant to high energy physics tracking devices. Gas-based drift chambers as well as silicon trackers are d…
Charm counting and B semileptonic branching fraction
Hitoshi Yamamoto
We review recent measurements as well as phenomenological background of the semileptonic branching fraction of hadrons and number of charm produced per decay of hadrons.
Hadronic B Meson Decays - getting ready for CP violation
Hitoshi Yamamoto
We review recent results on hadronic B meson decays including rare as well as non-suppressed decays. The main emphasis is on those channels relevant to measurement of CP violation…
Rare, Leptonic, and Hadronic Decays of Charmed Mesons - A Review -
Hitoshi Yamamoto
We review the physics of rare, leptonic, and hadronic decays of charmed mesons based on the results submitted to this conference (EPS 95, Brussles).
B Decays - Measurements and Predictions
Hitoshi Yamamoto
Hadronic decays of mesons are reviewed. First, masses of mesons and observed patterns together with physics behind them are discussed. Then the effective Hamiltonian respon…
