dc.descriptionWe present a measurement of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |V_ub|, based on 253 fb^-1 of data collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB e^+e^- asymmetric collider. Events are tagged by fully reconstructing one of the B mesons, produced in pairs from Upsilon(4S). The signal for b->u semileptonic decay is distinguished from the b->c background using the hadronic mass M_X, the leptonic invariant mass squared q^2 and the variable P_+ = E_X-|\vec{p}_X|. The results are obtained for events with the prompt-lepton momentum, p_l^* >= 1GeV/c, in three kinematic regions (1) M_X < 1.7 Gev/c^2, (2) M_X < 1.7 Gev/c^2 combined with q^2>8 GeV^2/c^2, and by (3) P_+ < 0.66 GeV/c, allowing for a comparison of the three methods. The matrix element |V_ub| is found to be (4.09+-0.19+-0.20(+0.14-0.15)+-0.18), where the errors are statistical, systematic including Monte Carlo modeling, theoretical, and from shape function parameter determination, respectively.
dc.description6 pages, 3 figures, 3 tables. Version as it appears in PRL. Changes from v1: |V_ub| recalculated using mb(SF)=4.60+-0.04 and mu_pi^2(SF)=0.20+-0.04. Title and text changed to reflect the calculation of partial rate instead of partial Br. Fig. 3 changed. Explicit dependence of the result on mb(SF) is given
