Determination of |Vub| from Measurements of the Electron and Neutrino Momenta in Inclusive Semileptonic B Decays

We present a determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element based on the analysis of semileptonic B decays from a sample of 88×106 Υ(4S) decays collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II e+e- storage ring. Charmless semileptonic B decays are selected using measurements of the electron energy and the invariant mass squared of the electron-neutrino pair. We obtain =(3.95±0.26-0.42+0.58±0.25)×10-3, where the errors represent experimental uncertainties, heavy quark parameter uncertainties, and theoretical uncertainties, respectively. © 2005 The American Physical Society.

We present a determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element parallel to V(ub)parallel to based on the analysis of semileptonic B decays from a sample of 88x10(6) Upsilon(4S) decays collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II e(+)e(-) storage ring. Charmless semileptonic B decays are selected using measurements of the electron energy and the invariant mass squared of the electron-neutrino pair. We obtain parallel to V(ub)parallel to=(3.95 +/- 0.26(-0.42)(+0.58)+/- 0.25)x10(-3), where the errors represent experimental uncertainties, heavy quark parameter uncertainties, and theoretical uncertainties, respectively.
