Padé - Improved Estimate of Perturbative Contributions to Inclusive Semileptonic
Padé-approximant methods are used to estimate the three-loop perturbative contributions to the inclusive semileptonic b → u decay rate. These improved estimates of the decay rate reduce the theoretical uncertainty in the extraction of the CKM matrix element |V ub | from the measured inclusive semileptonic branching ratio. In this paper we briefly review the development of Padé approximation tec...
متن کاملResumming phase space logarithms in inclusive semileptonic B decays.
We study logarithms of the form ln(mq/mb) which arise in the inclusive semileptonic decay of a bottom quark to a quark of massmq. We use the renormalization group to resum the leading radiative corrections to these terms, of the form mqα n s ln (mq/mb), m 3 qα n+1 s ln (mq/mb) and m 4 qα n s ln (mq/mb). The first two resummations are trivial, while the latter involves a non-trivial mixing of fo...
متن کاملRadiative Corrections to Nonleptonic Inclusive B Decays and the Semileptonic Branching Ratio of B Mesons
We calculate the radiative corrections to the nonleptonic inclusive B decay mode b → cud taking into account the charm quark mass. The corrections increase the decay rate by (4–8)%, depending on the renormalization point. Using these results, we obtain an improved theoretical prediction for the semileptonic branching ratio of B mesons. This talk relies on work done in collaboration with E. Baga...
متن کامل0 Reducing the Theoretical Uncertainty in Extracting | V ub | from the Inclusive B → X u l − ν l Decay Rate
Utilizing asymptotic Padé-approximant methods, we estimate the three-loop order MS coefficients of α s [log(μ/m b (μ)] terms [k = {0, 1, 2, 3}] within the b → ulνl decay rate. Except for the coefficient of the k = 0 term, all other coefficients may also be obtained via renormalization-group (RG) methods. The relative errors in asymptotic Padé-approximant estimates of the k = {1, 2, 3} terms are...
متن کاملSemileptonic Decays from Residual Renormalization-Scale Dependence
The constraint of a progressive decrease in residual renormalization scale dependence with increasing loop order is developed as a method for obtaining bounds on unknown higher-order perturbative corrections to renormalization-group invariant quantities. This technique is applied to the inclusive semileptonic process b → uν̄ll − (explicitly known to two-loop order) to obtain bounds on the threea...
