Inclusive determinations of Vub and Vcb
Christian W Bauer
In this talk I review the status of our ability to extract the CKM matrix elements Vub and Vcb from inclusive semileptonic decays. I focus on model independent determinations of th…
Graphical amplitudes from SCET
Christian W. Bauer, Dan Pirjol
We discuss the relationship between the graphical amplitudes T, C, P, ... used to parameterize nonleptonic B decay amplitudes, and matrix elements of operators in the soft-collinea…
Global analysis of inclusive B decays
Christian W. Bauer, Zoltan Ligeti, Michael Luke +2
In light of the large amount of new experimental data, we revisit the determination of V_{cb} and m_b from inclusive semileptonic and radiative B decays. We study shape variables t…
B -> M1 M2: Factorization, Charming Penguins, Strong Phases, and Polarization
Christian W. Bauer, Dan Pirjol, Ira Z. Rothstein +1
Using the soft-collinear effective theory we derive the factorization theorem for the decays B-> M1 M2 with M{1,2}= pi,K, rho,K*, at leading order in Lambda/E_M and Lambda/mb. The…
