Then, from a theoretician's point of view, I review (a) past history, (b) present trials, and (c) possible future alternatives on measuring |V_ub| and/or |V_ub/V_cb|. As of my main topic, I introduce a model-independent method, which predicts \\Gamma(B -> X_u l \\nu) / \\Gamma(B -> X_c l \\nu) \\equiv (\\gamma_u / \\gamma_c) \\times | V_{ub} / V_{cb}|^2 \\simeq (1.83 \\pm 0.28) \\times |V_ub / V_cb|^2 and |V_ub/V_cb| \\equiv (\\gamma_c / \\gamma_u)^{1/2} \\times [{\\cal{B}}(B -> X_u l \\nu)/{\\cal{B}}(B -> X_c l \\nu)]^{1/2} \\simeq (0.74 \\pm 0.06) \\times [{\\cal{B}}(B -> X_u l \\nu)/ {\\cal{B}}(B -> X_c l \\nu)]^{1/2}, based on the heavy quark effective theory. I also explore the possible experimental options to separate B -> X_u l \\nu from the dominant B -> X_c l \\nu: the measurement of inclusive hadronic invariant mass distributions, and the `D - \\pi' (and `K - \\pi') separation conditions. I also clarify the relevant experimental backgrounds.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1997-01-18T05:54:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "forthcoming decade", "inclusive hadronic invariant mass distributions", "heavy quark effective theory", "relevant experimental backgrounds", "experimental options" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 439668 } } }
