DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Henning Flacher (CERN)\n\nThis talk will give an ove
 rview of the latest measurements of semileptonic\nand rare radiative decay
 s of B-mesons at the B-Factories and discuss their\nrelevance for New Phys
 ics searches. As radiative B-meson decays proceed\nthrough loop diagrams t
 hey are sensitive to contributions from particles\noutside the Standard Mo
 del. Semileptonic B-meson decays provide an\nexcellent probe for the weak 
 and strong interactions of the b quark and\nallow a precision determinatio
 n of the magnitudes of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-\nMaskawa (CKM) matrix elemen
 ts |V_cb| and |V_ub|. These provide an\nimportant test of the Standard Mod
 el mechanism for CP violation and the\nunitarity of the CKM matrix\, in pa
 rticular through the comparison with\nsin(2beta).\n\nhttps://indico.cern.c
