M. Battaglia, Experimental status of semileptonic B decays - Recent results from LEP andcomparisons with Upsilon(4S) experiments, NUCL PH B-P, 96, 2001, pp. 443-452
Recent analyses of the LEP and gamma (4S) data have better outlined the pic
ture of semileptonic B decays. Results on inclusive and exclusive decay bra
nching fractions and on the extraction of the /V-ub/ and /V-cb/ elements of
the CKM mixing matrix are discussed, together with some of the still open
questions and the sources of model systematics.
