Abstract:
The Brown Muck of Beauty -- The Beauty of the Brown Muck
After a brief introduction into Heavy Quark Expansions (HQE) I discuss their
applications to semileptonic decays where one extracts the KM parameters
|V(cb)| and |V(ub)| and to total lifetimes of heavy flavour hadrons.
If time permits -- and interest by the audience does not wane -- I report
on some recent work on quark-hadron duality.
