Abstract

From a study of the kinematic properties of the final state produced in the semileptonic decays b → Xℓv_ℓ, the inclusive charmless semileptonic branching ratio of b hadrons is measured. With a sample of 3.6 million hadronic Z decays recorded between 1992 and 1995 with the ALEPH detector at LEP, the value Br(b → X_uℓv_ℓ) is determined to be (1.73 ± 0.55_stat ± 0.55_syst) × 10^-3, where X_u represents any charmless hadronic state and b is a mixture of b hadrons weighted by their production rates. This measurement yields the result |V_ub|² = (18.68 ± 5.94_stat ± 5.94_syst ± 1.45_HQE) × 10^-6, where the last error comes from the conversion of the branching ratio to the CKM matrix element squared.

N2 - From a study of the kinematic properties of the final state produced in the semileptonic decays b → Xℓvℓ, the inclusive charmless semileptonic branching ratio of b hadrons is measured. With a sample of 3.6 million hadronic Z decays recorded between 1992 and 1995 with the ALEPH detector at LEP, the value Br(b → Xuℓvℓ) is determined to be (1.73 ± 0.55stat ± 0.55syst) × 10-3, where Xu represents any charmless hadronic state and b is a mixture of b hadrons weighted by their production rates. This measurement yields the result |Vub|2 = (18.68 ± 5.94stat ± 5.94syst ± 1.45HQE) × 10-6, where the last error comes from the conversion of the branching ratio to the CKM matrix element squared.
