Description

The B¯ → Xsγ branching ratio is currently measured with around 5% accuracy. Further improvement is expected from Belle II. To match such a precision on the theoretical side, evaluation of Os2) corrections to the partonic decay b → Xspartγ are necessary, which includes the b → s γ, b → s gγ, b → s ggγ, b → sqq¯γ decay channels. Here, we evaluate the unrenormalized contribution to b → s γ that stems from the interference of the photonic dipole operator Q7 and the current-current operators Q1 and Q2. Our results, obtained in the cut propagator approach at the 4-loop level, agree with those found in parallel by Fael et al. who have applied the amplitude approach at the 3-loop level. Partial results for the same quantities recently determined by Greub et al. agree with our findings, too.
