Book excerpt: Using a sample of 471 million B{bar B} events collected with the BABAR detector, we study the sum of seven exclusive final states B → X{sub s(d)[gamma]}, where X{sub s(d)} is a strange (non-strange) hadronic system with a mass of up to 2.0 GeV/c2. After correcting for unobserved decay modes, we obtain a branching fraction for b → d[gamma] of (9.2 ± 2.0(stat.) ± 2.3(syst.)) x 10−6 in this mass range, and a branching fraction for b → s[gamma] of (23.0 ± 0.8(stat.) ± 3.0(syst.)) x 10−5 in the same mass range. We find [Beta](b→d[gamma])/[Beta](b→s{gamma}) = 0.040 ± 0.009(stat.) ± 0.010(syst.), from which we determine.
