Abstract

In this paper we investigate the subleading twist corrections to the photon energy spectrum in the decay Lambdab -> Xs γand to the lepton energy spectrum in Lambdab -> Xu l ν. As a first step we rederive the matching coefficients of the subleading twist using a much simpler method. Parametrizing the matrix elements for Lambdab and using reparametrization invariance, we show that the energy spectra close to the endpoints are given in terms of only a single universal function.
