In this work, we study the weak decay between two heavy baryons $ \mathcal{B}_i(\frac{1}{2}^+)\to \mathcal{B}_f(\frac{3}{2}^+)$ in the light-front quark model where three-quark picture is employed for baryon. We derive general form of…
We calculate the form factors of the $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda_c(2625)$ and $\Xi_b\to\Xi_c(2815)$ transitions, and additionally evaluate the corresponding semileptonic decays and the color-allowed two-body nonleptonic decays. In order to obtain…
We calculate the decay width for $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c e {\bar \nu}$ in the frame work of a nonrelativistic quark (NRQ) model of heavy baryons where the light quarks play the role of spectators. Our calculation does not make an explicit…
We investigate the weak decays of the triply heavy baryon $\Omega_{QQQ}$ in the light-front quark model. Since $\Omega_{QQQ}$ consists of three indistinguishable identical heavy quarks, the commonly adopted quark-diquark picture does not…

We study the form factors of heavy--to--heavy and heavy--to--light weak decays using the light--front relativistic quark model. For the heavy--to--heavy $B \ra D^{(\ast)}$ semileptonic decays we calculate the corresponding Isgur--Wise…
We study the non-leptonic two-body weak decays of $\Lambda_b^0 \to p M$ with $ M=(\pi^-,K^-)$ and $(\rho^-,K^{*-})$ in the light-front quark model under the generalized factorization ansatz. By considering the Fermi statistic between quarks…
Semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of the B_c meson to B_s and B mesons, caused by the c\to s,d quark transitions, are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark model. The heavy quark expansion in inverse powers of the active c…
Assuming the two diquark structure for the pentaquark state as advocated in the Jaffe-Wilczek model, there exist exotic parity-even anti-sextet and parity-odd triplet heavy pentaquark baryons. The theoretical estimate of charmed and bottom…

Semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of the B_c meson to charmonium and D mesons are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark model. The decay form factors are explicitly expressed through the overlap integrals of the meson wave…
We present a detailed analysis of the heavy-to-light semileptonic decays of the Lambda_b and Lambda_c baryons Lambda_b -> p l- bar(nu)_l and Lambda_c -> n l+ nu_l in the covariant confined quark model. We calculate the invariant and…
In this work, we analyze the semileptonic decay processes of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c$ in the light-cone sum rule approach. In order to calculate the form factors of the $\Lambda_b$ baryon transition matrix element, we use the light-cone…
We construct a leading-order effective field theory for both scalar and axial-vector heavy diquarks, and consider its power expansion in the heavy diquark limit. By assuming the transition from QCD to diquark effective theory, we derive the…
We report results (on an intermediate statistics sample) of a study of weak semi-leptonic formfactors of $B$ and $D$ decays, addressing the uncertainties from mass extrapolations to chiral and to heavy quarks. Moreover, we present a…
The semileptonic decays of $\Lambda_{b}\to\Lambda_{c}^{(*)}\ell\nu_\ell$ and $\Lambda_{c}\to\Lambda^{(*)}\ell\nu_\ell$ are studied in the light-front quark model in this work. Instead of the quark-diquark approximation, we use the…
I consider a model for heavy meson decays based on an effective quark-meson Lagrangian. The model is constrained by the known symmetries of QCD in the m_Q -> infinity limit for the heavy quarks, and chiral symmetry in the light quark…
The matrix element of the weak transition {\Lambda}_b\rightarrow{\Lambda}_c can be expressed in terms of six form factors. {\Lambda}_Q(Q = b;c) can be regarded as composed of a heavy quark Q(Q = b;c) and a diquark which is made up of the…
