• W couples to the weak eigenstates • Charged current processes can change quark flavour • CKM matrix elements appears at the quark-W vertex
March 4, 2014 7 The main goal of the B factories was…
… to confirm the CKM mechanism, as established by M. Kobayashi and T. Maskawa in the year 1973
Wolfenstein parametriza on of VCKM
• VCKM contains not only coupling constants of weak transi ons • But also a complex phase, responsible for all CP-viola ng phenomena in the SM

March 4, 2014 12 Why study semileptonic B decays…
… because they are the best way to measure the CKM matrix elements |Vcb| and |Vub|, two fundamental parameters of the SM
March 4, 2014 13 |Vcb| from exclusive decays
B → D*lν
B → Dlν
• Theory input: Form factors F(1) and G(1) at zero recoil (w=1) from la ce QCD calcula ons • Experimental method: Measure the differen al width dΓ as a func on of w and extrapolate to zero recoil (typically assuming a parameteriza on of the form factors)
March 4, 2014 14 B0 → D*-l+ν at Belle [W. Dungel, CS, PRD 82, 112007 (2010)]
• 711/ of Belle Y(4S) data • About 120,000 reconstructed B0 → D*-l+ν decays
• Fit in 40 bins of w, cos θl, θV and χ to obtain HQET F.F. parameters • Dominant experimental systema cs: tracking

Also other observables in B à Xlν can be expanded into an OPE with the same heavy quark parameters, e.g.,
• The nth moment of the (truncated) lepton energy spectrum
th 2 • The n moment of the (truncated) M X spectrum
Master plan: • Measure the quark masses and heavy quark parameters using moments • Subs tute them in the formula of the semileptonic width March 4, 2014 17 • Determine | Vcb| from the semileptonic branching frac on • Analysis in the kine c scheme with 50 moments from BaBar, Belle, CDF, CLEO and DELPHI [P.
