Abstract
Starting from an operator product expansion in the heavy quark effective theory up to order 1/m 2 b we calculate the inclusive semileptonic decays of unpolarized bottom hadrons including lepton mass effects. We calculate the differential decay spectra dΛ/(dE τ), and the total decay rate forB meson decays to final states containing a τ lepton.
