Beschreibung:
The huge data sets collected at the two B factories, Belle and BaBar, have made it possible to explore the radiative penguin process b→sγ, the electroweak penguin process b→sℓ+ℓ−, and the suppressed radiative process b→dγ in detail—all in exclusive channels and inclusive measurements. Theoretical tools have also advanced to meet or surpass the experimental precision, especially in inclusive calculations and the various ratios of exclusive channels. In this article, we review the theoretical and experimental progress over the past decade in the radiative and electroweak penguin decays of B mesons.
