Combination of Colour Favoured and Colour

In this research we described the effective Hamiltonian theory and applied this theory to the calculation of current-current (Q1,2) and QCD penguin (Q3,…,6) c quark decay rates. We calculated the decay rates of semileptonic and hadronic of charm quark in the effective Hamiltonian theory. We investigated the decay rates of D meson decays according to Spectator Quark Model (SQM) for the calculati...

Work supported in part by US Department of Energy contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. SEMILEPTONIC B-MESON DECAYS

The study of the semileptonic B-meson decays is the most accessible and cleanest way to determine the CKM matrix elements |Vcb| and Vub. These decays also provide experimental access to study the QCD form-factors, heavy quark masses, and HQE parameters. The theoretical description of semileptonic B-meson decays at the parton level is very simple because there is no interaction between leptonic ...

Semileptonic Decays of B Mesons

In this section, we discuss some of the key questions related to semileptonic decays of B mesons: the inclusive semileptonic branching fraction, the determination of jV cb j and jV ub j from inclusive and exclusive measurements, recent progress in exclusive semileptonic decays, and form factor measurements and tests of heavy-quark eeective theory. We emphasize the uncertainties that arise in ex...

Semileptonic B Decays at BABAR∗

We present results on semileptonic B decays obtained with the BABAR detector. The large data set accumulated at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B-Factory allows a new measurement technique, where the hadronic decay of one B meson is fully reconstructed and the semileptonic decay of the recoiling B meson is studied. Traditional analysis techniques of inclusive and exclusive B decays complement this...

Inclusive Semileptonic B Decays at BABAR

We present measurements of the inclusive semileptonic branching fractions of charged and neutral B mesons using 20.6 fb−1 of data measured at the Υ (4S) with the BABAR detector. Events are tagged with a fully reconstructed hadronic decay of a B meson. The correlation between the flavor of the tag B meson and the electron charge allows the separation of prompt semileptonic B decays and cascade s...

Semileptonic Decays at Sld

The lifetimes of B + and B 0 mesons have been measured using a sample of 150,000 hadronic Z 0 decays collected by the SLD experiment at the SLC between 1993 and 1995. The analysis identiies the semileptonic decays of B mesons with high p; p t leptons and reconstructs the B meson decay length and charge by v ertexing the lepton with a partially reconstructed D meson. This method results in a sam...
