“…Upon removing the cut, power corrections to the partonic calculation can be formally shown to be of O(Λ 2 /m 2 b ), and they are numerically small, approximately +2.5% of the total BF [7]. The Standard Model BF, which has been determined with about ±10% uncertainty [7,8], is found to be in good agreement with experimental measurements by CLEO, Belle and BaBar [9][10][11][12][13][14].…”

We compute the differentialB → X s γ decay width in the Standard Model as a function of the photon energy using Dressed Gluon Exponentiation (DGE). The resummed spectrum is matched with the fixed-order expansion, making use of the next-to-next-toleading order (NNLO) results for the matrix element of the magnetic dipole interaction O 7 and NLO ones for other operators in the effective Weak Hamiltonian. We develop a new technique to implement constraints on the analytic structure of the Sudakov factor in moment space. This improves the behavior of the resummed spectrum away from the Sudakov region. We also derive an analytic expression for the Borel transform of the perturbative series for the O 7 spectrum in the large-β 0 limit. Using this example we demonstrate that exponentiation in moment space is necessary for the calculation of the spectrum for E γ > ∼ 2 GeV. Finally, we investigate numerically the relation between renormalons, power corrections and support properties. We present predictions for the branching fraction and the first few spectral moments as a function of a cut E γ > E 0 and estimate the theoretical uncertainty.

“…Its branching ratio is measured with a precision of ∼ 7% [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] To match this experimental precision, a theory calculation to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) accuracy is necessary.

Ongoing efforts to reduce the perturbative uncertainty in theB → X s γ decay rate have resulted in a theory estimate to NNLO in QCD. However, a few contributions from multi-parton final states which are formally NLO are still unknown. These are parametrically small and included in the estimated error from higher order corrections, but must be computed if one is to claim complete knowledge of theB → X s γ rate to NLO. A major part of these unknown pieces are four-body contributions corresponding to the partonic process b → sqqγ. We compute these NLO four-body contributions toB → X s γ, and confirm the corresponding tree-level leading-order results. While the NLO contributions arise from tree-level and one-loop Feynman diagrams, the four-body phase-space integrations make the computation non-trivial. The decay rate contains collinear logarithms arising from the mass regularization of collinear divergences. We perform an exhaustive numerical analysis, and find that these contributions are positive and amount to no more than ∼ 1% of the total rate in the Standard Model, thus confirming previous estimates of the perturbative uncertainty.

“…The comparison, used to extract the ratio Vts V cb , agrees with the prediction of the Standard Model, based on the unitarity triangle. Latest experimental results from CLEO collaboration are shown in [60]. Other details about the photon spectrum will be discussed in section (6.1).…”
