TITLE: Semileptonic B decays at BaBar
CONTACT: Yoshihide.Sakaikek.jp
SPEAKER: Francesca Di Lodovico   (Queen Mary, University of London)
LANGUAGE: English
ABSTRACT: We present recent results on semileptonic B decays using data collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. We report several measurements including the product F(1)|V_cb| from B- -> D*0e-nu decays, the B -> Xc l nu hadronic moments, the weak annihilation in B0 -> Xu l nu decays, the partial branching fraction of B -> Xu l nu events with hadronic tags and the corresponding hadronic moments. The CKM matrix element V_ub is extracted by using recent theoretical calculations of phase space acceptances.
