We also derive an analogous class of formulae involving the decay B -> Xs l+ l-. These results incorporate Lambda_QCD/m_b power corrections, but are independent of leading and subleading hadronic shape functions. Consequently, they enable one to determine |V_ub|/|V_tb V_ts*| to subleading order in a model-independent way.23 pagesHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyHigh Energy Physics - ExperimentSubleading Shape-Function Effects and the Extraction of |V_ub|text
