Structure-dependent QED in $$ {B}^{-}\to {\ell}^{-}\overline{\nu}\left(\gamma \right) $$

Abstract:Based on explicitly gauge invariant interpolating operators we compute complete next-leading order QED-corrections for leptonic decays. These are sizeable since the helicity-suppression in V-A interactions allows for structure-dependent collinear logs. We have explicitly checked that these logs are absent for helicity-unsuppressed Yukawa-type transitions. Based on B → γ form factors we present the rates for $$ {B}^{-}\to \left({\mu}^{-},{\tau}^{-}\right)\overline{\nu}\left(\gamma \right) $$
