Abstract

▪ Abstract

The magnitude of the CKM matrix element |Vub| plays an important role in testing the unitarity of the CKM matrix. The first measurements of the exclusive b → u quark transitions and , and the subsequent determination of |Vub|, are reviewed here.

Keyword(s): B meson, b quark, CKM matrix, CP violation, semileptonic decay
