The $B^*B\pi$ and $D^*D\pi$ couplings have previously been derived from a QCD light-cone sum rule in leading order. Here, we describe the calculation of the $O(\alpha_s)$ correction to the twist 2 term of this sum rule. The result is used…

The \pi NN^* and \eta NN^* coupling constants are studied in the QCD sum rule ($N^* \equiv N(1535)). We investigate the two point functions between the vacuum and a one meson state in the soft meson limit. The operator product expansion is…
In this paper we discuss effective strong coupling constants. Those are well behaved in the low-Q^2 domain, contrarily to alpha_s from pQCD. We present an extraction of an effective strong coupling constant from Jefferson Lab polarized data…
In this lecture I present a pedagogical introduction to the low-energy phenomenology of light flavors. The renormalization scheme freedom in defining QCD parameters is discussed. It is shown in some details how one can extract an accurate…
We calculate the strong coupling constants among the doubly heavy spin-$ \frac{3}{2} $ baryons $\Xi^*_{QQ}$ and $\Omega^*_{QQ}$, with $ Q $ and $ Q' $ being $ c$ or $ b $ quark, with light vector meson by means of the light-cone QCD sum…
We compare the predictions for the form factors f_+^{D->pi,K}(0) from QCD sum rules on the light-cone with recent experimental results. We find f_+^{D->pi}(0) = 0.63\pm 0.11, f_+^{D->K}(0) = 0.75\pm 0.12 and f_+^{D->pi}(0)/f_+^{D->K}(0)=…
We present a calculation of the coupling constant f0-->rho-gamma of and a0-->rho-gamma decays from the point of the light cone QCD sum rules. We estimate the coupling constants g_f0-rho-gamma and g_a0-rho-gamma which are an essential…
The strong coupling constants between light vector mesons and octet-decuplet baryons are calculated in framework of the light cone QCD sum rules, taking into account SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking effects. It is shown that all strong…
We estimate the couplings in the Heavy Hadron Chiral Theory (HHCT) lagrangian from the QCD sum rules in an external axial field. We take into account the perturbative correction to the meson correlator in the infinite mass limit. With the…
We calculate the coupling constants of the decay modes $1^{-+}\rightarrow\rho\pi, f_1\pi, b_1\pi, \eta\pi, \eta'\pi, a_1\pi, f_1\eta$ within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rule. Then we calculate the partial width of these decay…
We show that the $\pi NN$ coupling constant extracted model-independently from $\bar pp$ charge exchange is subject to a systematic correction, and, more importantly, that the strong absorption in the critical region prevents a…
The strong coupling constant is one of the fundamental parameters of the standard model of particle physics. In this review I will briefly summarise the theoretical framework, within which the strong coupling constant is defined and how it…
We study the $\omega\to\pi\pi\gamma$ decays by adding to the amplitude calculated within the framework of chiral perturbation theory and vector meson dominance the amplitude of $\sigma$-meson intermediate state. We estimate the coupling…
We present a new extraction of the effective strong coupling constant \alpha_{s,g_1}(Q^2). The result agrees with a previous determination and extends the measurement of the low and high Q^2 behavior of \alpha_{s,g_1}(Q^2) that was…

According to heavy-meson chiral perturbation theory, the vector form factor $f_+(q^2)$ of exclusive semi-leptonic decay $B\to \pi \ell \nu$ is closely related, at least in the soft-pion region (i.e., $q^{2} \sim (m_B-m_{\pi})^2$), to the…
