Book Description
A largely model-independent measurement of the inclusive electron momentum spectrum and branching fraction for semileptonic decays of B mesons is presented based on data recorded at the[Upsilon](4S) resonance with the BABAR detector. Backgrounds from secondary charm decays are separated from prompt B decays using charge and angular correlations between the electron from one B meson and a high momentum electron tag from the second B meson. The resulting branching fraction is[Beta](B[yields] Xe[nu])= (10.87[+-] 0.18(stat)[+-] 0.30(syst))%. Based on this measurement we determine the CKM matrix elementV[sub cb].

Book Description
We determine the relative branching fractions of semileptonic B decays to charmed final states. The measurement is performed on the recoil from a fully reconstructed B meson in a sample of 362 million B{bar B} pairs collected at the [Upsilon](4S) resonance with the BABAR detector. A simultaneous fit to a set of discriminating variables is performed on a sample of {bar B} → DXl−{bar {nu}}{sub {ell}} decays to determine the contributions from the different channels.

Book Description
The BABAR experiment at SLAC provides an opportunity for measurement of the Standard Model parameters describing CP violation. A method of measuring the CKM matrix element V[sub cb] using Inclusive Semileptonic B decays in events tagged by a fully reconstructed decay of one of the B mesons is presented here. This mode is considered to be one of the most powerful approaches due to its large branching fraction, simplicity of the theoretical description and very clean experimental signatures. Using fully reconstructed B mesons to flag B[bar B] event we were able to produce the spectrum and branching fraction for electron momenta P[sub C.M.S.]> 0.5 GeV/c. Extrapolation to the lower momenta has been carried out with Heavy Quark Effective Theory. The branching fractions are measured separately for charged and neutral B mesons. For 82 fb[sup -1] of data collected at BABAR we obtain: BR(B[sup [+-]] [yields] X e[bar [nu]]) = 10.63 [+-] 0.24 [+-] 0.29%, BR(B[sup 0] [yields] X e[bar [nu]]) = 10.68 [+-] 0.34 [+-] 0.31%, averaged BR(B [yields] X e[bar [nu]]) = 10.65 [+-] 0.19 [+-] 0.27%, ratio of Branching fractions BR(B[sup [+-]])/BR(B[sup 0]) = 0.996 [+-] 0.039 [+-] 0.015 (errors are statistical and systematic, respectively). They also obtain V[sub cb] = 0.0409 [+-] 0.00074 [+-] 0.0010 [+-] 0.000858 (errors are: statistical, systematic and theoretical).

Book Description
We report a measurement of the inclusive charmless semileptonic branching fraction of B mesons in a sample of 89 million B{bar B} events recorded with the BABAR detector at the [Upsilon](4S) resonance. Events are selected by fully reconstructing the decay of one B meson and identifying a charged lepton from the decay of the other B meson. The number of signal events is extracted from the hadronic mass distribution and is used to determine the ratio of branching fractions [Beta]({bar B} → X{sub u}l{bar {nu}})/[Beta]({bar B} → Xl{bar {nu}}) = (2.06 ± 0.25(stat) ± 0.23(syst) ± 0.36(theo)) x 10−2. Using the measured branching fraction for inclusive semileptonic B decays, we find [Beta]({bar B} → X{sub u}l{bar {nu}}) = (2.24 ± 0.27(stat) ± 0.26(syst) ± 0.39(theo)) x 10−3 and derive the CKM matrix element.

Book Description
Charmless semileptonic decays, {bar B} 2!X{sub u}l{bar {nu}}, are studied in a sample of 232 million B{bar B} decays recorded with the BABAR detector, in events where the decay of the second B meson is fully reconstructed. Inclusive charmless decays are selected in kinematic regions where the dominant background from semileptonic B decays to charm is reduced by requirements on the hadronic mass M{sub X} and the momentum transfer q2. The partial branching fraction for {bar B} 2!X{sub u}l{bar {nu}} decays for M{sub X} 1.7 GeV/c2 and q2 8 GeV2/c4 is measured to be [Delta][Beta]({bar b} 2!X{sub u}l{bar {nu}}) = (0.87 ± 0.09{sub stat} ± 0.09{sub sys} ± 0.01{sub th}) x 10−3.
