b->c decays at NNLO — •Manuel Egner1, Matteo Fael2, Kay Schoenwald3, and Matthias Steinhauser1 — 1Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, TTP — 2CERN, Department of Theoretical Physics — 3University of Zurich, Physik-Institut
The decay of B mesons can be described in the heavy quark expansion as the decay of a free bottom quark plus corrections which are suppressed by powers of 1/m_b. In this talk I will present our NNLO calculations to the decay of free bottom quarks b->c with full charm mass dependence. For the semileptonic decay channel b->clv, we obtain analytic results which can be compared to previous known results obtained via expansions in the mass ratio m_c/m_b. I will also give an outlook on the ongoing calculation of the hadronic decay channels b->cud and b->ccs, where similar calculation techniques as in the semileptonic case are used.
