B+ --> D*⁺ₛ gamma and B+ --> D*⁺ gamma as Probes of Vub

Grinstein, Benjamin · Lebed, Richard F.

Original · EN

The decays B+ --> D*⁺ₛ gamma and B+ --> D*⁺ gamma can be used for an extraction of |Vub|. When the b and c quarks are nearly degenerate the rate for these modes can be determined in terms of other observed rates, namely BB mixing and D* --> D gamma decay. To this end we introduce a novel application of heavy quark and flavor symmetries. Although somewhat unrealistic, this limit provides us with a first estimate of these rates.
