The Semileptonic Lifetime of the D Meson
R. D. Dikeman
The full treatment, both nonperturbative - through O(1/m_c^3) - and perturbative - through O(alpha_s) and BLM type O(alpha_s^2) - of the semileptonic lifetime of the D meson is giv…
The Hadronic Recoil Mass Spectrum in Semileptonic B Decays and Extracting |V_{ub}| in a Model-Insensitive Way
I. Bigi, R. David Dikeman, N. Uraltsev
We present an extended discussion of the previously noted possibility to extract |V_{ub}| from an analysis of the hadronic recoil mass spectrum in B->X_u l nu decays. Invariant mas…
Operator Product Expansion, Heavy Quarks, QCD Duality and its Violations
Boris Chibisov, R. David Dikeman, M. Shifman +1
The quark (gluon)-hadron duality constitutes a basis for the theoretical treatment of a wide range of inclusive processes -- from hadronic τdecays and R_{e^+e^-}, to semileptonic a…
b -> s +γ: A QCD Consistent Analysis of the Photon Energy Distribution
R. David Dikeman, M. Shifman, N. G. Uraltsev
The photon energy distribution in the inclusive b -> s+γtransitions is a combination of two components: the first component, soft physics, is determined by the so called primordial…
