Description
The heavy mass expansion has become a standard tool that has significantly evolved since its formulation about thirteen years ago. Some of the major results of the heavy mass expansion, namely the determination of Vcb (both exclusive and inclusive) and lifetime calculations, are reviewed and some open problems are pointed out.
