Abstract
We review theoretical work done in studies of the Flavour Changing Neutral Current (FCNC) B-decays in the context of the Standard Model. Making use of the QCD-improved effective Hamiltonian describing the so-called vertical stroke {Delta}Bvertical stroke =1 and vertical stroke {Delta}Bvertical stroke =2, vertical stroke {Delta}Qvertical stroke =0 transitions, we calculate the rates and differential distributions in a large number of B-decays. The FCNC processes discussed here include the radiative decays B {yields} X{sub s} + {gamma}, B {yields} X{sub d} + {gamma}, and the semileptonic decays B {yields} X{sub s} l{sup +}l{sup -}, B {yields} X{sub d}l{sup +}l{sup -}, B {yields} X{sub s} {nu}{sub l} anti {nu}{sub l}, and B {yields} X{sub d} {nu}{sub l} anti {nu}{sub l}. We also discuss the inclusive photon energy spectrum calculated from the Charged Current (CC) decays B {yields} X{sub c} + {gamma} and B {yields} X{sub u} + {gamma} and the mentioned FCNC radiative decays. The importance of carrying out measurements of the inclusive photon energy spectrum in B-decays is emphasized. Using phenomenological potential models and the Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) we estimate decay branching ratios in a number of exclusive FCNC B-decays.
