DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mr. BERNLOCHNER\, Florian (University of Victoria (C
 A))\nThe measurements of the total B->Xs gamma decay rate and the determin
 ation of the CKM matrix element |Vub| play important roles in looking for 
 new physics in the flavor sector of the Standard Model\, complementary to 
 the ongoing direct searches at the LHC. Their measurements from present an
 d future B-factory data require the precise knowledge of the nonperturbati
 ve parts of the parton distribution function for the b quark in the B-meso
 n (called the shape function). We present the state of the art theory and 
 a global fit to BaBar and Belle data to extract the shape function and the
  B->Xs gamma decay rate using a model-independent framework with reliable 
 theoretical uncertainties for the shape function\, based on an expansion i
 n a set of basis functions.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/contributionDisplay.p
