Phenomenology and symmetries in heavy meson physics
Several applications of the Heavy Quark Symmetry are studied. They concern the extraction of the quark mixing parameter $V\sb{cb}$, the Standard Model prediction for the branching ratio of $B \to K\sp{*}\gamma$ and the extraction of the quark mixing parameter $V\sb{ub}$ from $B \to \pi e\nu\sb{e}$ d...

Summary: | Several applications of the Heavy Quark Symmetry are studied. They concern the extraction of the quark mixing parameter $V\sb{cb}$, the Standard Model prediction for the branching ratio of $B \to K\sp{*}\gamma$ and the extraction of the quark mixing parameter $V\sb{ub}$ from $B \to \pi e\nu\sb{e}$ decays. An effective theory incorporating both Heavy Quark and Chiral Symmetries is presented and some of its applications are discussed. |
