dc.descriptionWe describe two recent theoretical calculations of the $B \to K^* γ$ decay. The first method is based on an effective lagrangian incorporating chiral symmetry for the light degrees of freedom and the heavy quark spin-flavor symmetries for the heavy quarks. Using these symmetries, together with the hypothesis of polar q$^2$ dependence of the semileptonic form factors, one is able to relate $B \to K^* γ$ and $D \to K^* \ell ν$ decays with the result $ R \, =\, Γ(B \to K^* γ) / Γ(b \to s γ) = 0.09 \pm 0.03$. The second method is based on 3-point function QCD sum rules and gives the result $ R \, = \, 0.17 \pm 0.05$. Both results are in reasonable agreement with recent data from the CLEO II Collaboration.
