Theory of Inclusive B Decays
arXiv:hep-ph/9702310 · doi:10.1016/S0920-5632(97)00432-5
Abstract
We present the theory of inclusive decays of hadrons containing a heavy quark and discuss its most important applications to the decays of B mesons. We also review the theoretical understanding of the hadronic parameters lambda_1 and lambda_2 (or mu_pi^2 and mu_G^2) entering the heavy-quark expansion.
