The Isgur-Wise function in the BPS limit

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

From sum rules in the heavy quark limit of QCD, using the non-forward amplitude, we demonstrate that if the slope rho^2 = -xsi'(1) of the Isgur-Wise function xsi(w) attains its lower bound 3/4 (as happens in the BPS limit proposed by Uraltsev), the IW function is completely determined, given by the function xsi(w) = [2/(w+1)]^(3/2).
