Description

In this talk I give an introduction to the soft collinear effective theory by considering in detail the decay rate for B → Xsγ near the endpoint. Thus,I hope I have been able to shed some light on some of the developments that have taken place in this field recently. There has been much work that I have not been able to cover. In particular I have not discussed the application of SCET to exclusive decays. For an up-to-date discussion of recent progress on exclusive rare and semileptonic B decays I refer you to Dan Pirjol's talk
