Semi-inclusive Decay $B\to \phi X_s$: Rate and Momentum Spectrum of   $\phi$
  We study the rate and $\phi$ momentum distribution in semi-inclusive decays $B \to\phi X_s $ induced by the quark level processes $b\to\phi s$ and $b\to\phi s g$, in which the gluon is radiated from the internal charm quark loop or emitted from the virtual gluon of the strong penguin (inner bremsstrahlung). We find ${\cal B}(b\to\phi s)=6.7\times 10^{-5}$ and ${\cal B}(b\to\phi s g)=3.8\times 10^{-5}$. The momentum spectrum of $\phi$ produced by $b\to\phi s g $ is very broad. With the cut $|{\bf k}_{\phi}|\geq 2.0$ GeV, ${\cal B}(b\to\phi s)=6.1\times 10^{-5}$ (where the Fermi motion of the $b$-quark in the $B$-meson is described by a Gaussian), and ${\cal B}(b\to\phi s g)=1.0\times 10^{-5}$. Due to the special nature of $\phi$, many difficulties which hindered a reliable theoretical prediction for $B\to \eta' X_s$ decay are absent in the process $B\to \phi X_s$. Therefore, theoretical predictions for $B\to \phi X_s$ are relatively clean. Moreover, the clear experimental signature of the $\phi$ is of great help. Data for $B\to\phi X_s$, both the branching ratio and the $\phi$ momentum distribution, would teach us about the strength of strong penguins which might be of great importance in the search for CP violation and for new physics at $B$ factories.
