Exclusive Measurements of b -> s gamma Transition Rate and Photon Energy Spectrum
We use 429 fb of collision data collected at the
resonance with the BABAR detector to measure the radiative
transition rate of with a sum of 38 exclusive final
states. The inclusive branching fraction with a minimum photon energy of 1.9
GeV is found to be where the first uncertainty is statistical and the
second is systematic. We also measure the first and second moments of the
photon energy spectrum and extract the best fit values for the heavy-quark
parameters, and , in the kinetic and shape function
models.Comment: 18 pages, 14 pdf figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.
