Abstract: Using methods from soft-collinear and heavy-quark effective theory, a systematic factorization analysis is performed for the photon spectrum in the endpoint region . It is proposed that, to all orders in , the spectrum obeys a novel factorization formula, which besides terms with the structure familiar from inclusive decay distributions contains "resolved photon" contributions of the form and . Here and are new soft and jet functions, whose form is derived. These contributions arise whenever the photon couples to light partons instead of coupling directly to the effective weak interaction. The new contributions appear first at order and are related to operators other than in the effective weak Hamiltonian. They give rise to non-vanishing corrections to the total decay rate, which cannot be described using a local operator product expansion. A systematic analysis of these effects is performed at tree level in hard and hard-collinear interactions. The resulting uncertainty on the decay rate defined with a cut GeV is estimated to be approximately . It could be reduced by an improved measurement of the isospin asymmetry to the level of . We see no possibility to reduce this uncertainty further using reliable theoretical methods.
