Transverse Momentum Distributions in B-Decays

We consider transverse momentum distributions in B-decays. The O(alpha_S) coefficients for soft and collinear logarithms are computed to next-to-leading accuracy. Resummation of large logarithmic contributions is performed in impact parameter space within the general formalism for transverese moment...

Sumario:We consider transverse momentum distributions in B-decays. The O(alpha_S) coefficients for soft and collinear logarithms are computed to next-to-leading accuracy. Resummation of large logarithmic contributions is performed in impact parameter space within the general formalism for transverese momentum distributions. It is shown that the shape-function approach as used for the threshold distribution case cannot be extended to the transverse momentum one.
