1 Inclusive B Decays - Spectra, Moments and CKM Matrix Elements Presented by Daniel Cronin-Hennessy University of Rochester (CLEO Collaboration) ICHEP July 2002 Amsterdam, Ne
2 Outline Motivation for measuring moments of various spectra. Measurements: E spectrum in inclusive decays B X s M X 2 spectrum in inclusive decays B X c l E l spectrum in inclusive decays B X c l |V cb | Moments Summary More from E spectrum and lepton energy endpoint ( |V ub | ) Exclusive decays and CKM matrix extraction Using more than one kinematic variable ( B X l ) at a time. Summary
3 Motivation Extremely naïve model for B X s Two body decay ( b s ) yields photon energy spike at half the b quark mass. 1 st moment = m b /2 2 nd moment = 0 A better model (spectator) Parameterizes B meson structure with average masses (1 st ) and fermi momentum (2 nd ). Some include QCD. A theory (HQET) Expressions for observables in increasing powers of 1/M B GOOD Introduces increasing number of non- perturbative parameters – NOT SO GOOD 1/M B 1, 2 1/M 2 B 1/M 3 B
4 Motivation Similar expressions for the moments of M X 2 and E spectra. The 1/M 3 B parameters are estimated from dimensional considerations to be (0.5GeV) 3. Extracting and requires two measurements These are used to extract |V cb | HQET plus OPE allows inclusive observables to be written as double expansions in powers of s and 1/M B. To order o 2 s and 1/M 3 B in the scheme.

9 Moments Summary CLEO has measured six moments, two each from 1) the photon energy distribution in B X s events 2) the hadronic mass2 distribution in B X c l events and 3) most recently the lepton energy spectrum in B X c l events. The allowed bands for HQET parameters and 1 are in agreement for all measurements. Additionally, CLEO has used the HQET expressions from the 1S mass renormalization scheme and has extracted a value of |V cb | in excellent agreement with that derived from the MS scheme. There remains some ambiguity on the treatment of uncertainties due to the higher order HQET terms.

17 Summary CLEO has measured the yield of B X u l above the lepton energy endpoint of B X c l The total rate is extrapolated by using our photon energy spectrum in b s for which the spectrum is known over most of the kinematically allowed range. |V ub | is extracted from the total rate. Additional subleading correction are currently being investigated. CLEO presented an updated B l Branching ratio and a new (exclusive) extraction of |V ub |. CLEO has also performed a log likelihood fit to the B X l in three independent kinematic variable. A preliminary value of |V ub | was presented. The weight of events in the endpoint region is currently not fully understood – do not average the inclusive results.
