Abstract: | We evaluate analytically the master integrals for double real radiation emission in the (b rightarrow u W^*) decay, where b and u are a massive and massless quark, respectively, while (W^{*}) is an off-shell charged weak boson. Since the W boson can subsequently decay in a lepton anti-neutrino pair, the results of the present paper constitute a further step toward a fully analytic computation of differential distributions for the semileptonic decay of a b quark at NNLO in QCD. The latter partonic process plays a crucial role in the study of inclusive semileptonic charmless decays of B mesons. Our results are expressed in terms of multiple polylogarithms of maximum weight four. |
