Weak Radiative B-Meson Decay Beyond Leading Logarithms
read the original abstract
We present our results for three-loop anomalous dimensions necessary in analyzing $B{\to}X_s\gamma$ decay at the next-to-leading order in QCD. We combine them with other recently calculated contributions, obtaining a practically complete next-to-leading order prediction for the branching ratio ${\cal B}(B{\to}X_s\gamma) = (3.28 \pm 0.33) \times 10^{-4}$. The uncertainty is more than twice smaller than in the previously available leading order theoretical result. The Standard Model prediction remains in agreement with the CLEO measurement at the $2 \sigma$ level.

Real and Complex Singlet-Scalar Benchmarks with a Vector-Like Down Quark for $B\to X_s\gamma$ and $B_s-\bar B_s$ Mixing
In minimal benchmarks with a vector-like down quark D and singlet scalar, the new-physics contribution to B to X_s gamma is only 0.4 percent of the Standard Model value at TeV scales, while B_s mixing imposes stronger...
