The $B\to D$ transition form factor (TFF) $f^{B\to D}_+(q^2)$ is determined mainly by the $D$-meson leading-twist distribution amplitude (DA) , $\phi_{2;D}$, if the proper chiral current correlation function is adopted within the light-cone…

The method of light-cone QCD sum rules is applied to the calculation of the form factors of $\gamma^*\rho \to \pi$ and $\gamma^*\gamma \to \pi^0$ transitions. We consider the dispersion relation for the $\gamma^*(Q^2)\gamma^*(q^2) \to…
The $H^*H\pi$ form factor for H = B and D mesons is evaluated in a QCD sum rule calculation. We study the Borel sum rule for the three point function of two pseudoscalar and one vector meson currents up to order four in the operator product…
We report the first systematic analysis of the off-light-cone effects in sum rules for heavy-to-light form factors. These effects are investigated in a model based on scalar constituents, which allows a technically rather simple analysis…
We propose a new estimate of the process $B \to (\rho, \omega)+ \gamma$ by using the light-cone QCD sum rule. The aim is to choose the chiral quark current operators in order to eliminate the uncertainty arising from the chiral-even…
We construct light-cone sum rules for various types of effective form factors in the $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \ell^+\ell^-$ and $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ decays by analyzing vacuum-to-$\Lambda_b$ (or $\gamma^\ast$-to-$\Lambda_b$)…
We predict the amplitude of the $B\to K \ell^+\ell^-$ decay in the region of the dilepton invariant mass squared $0<q^2\leq m_{J/\psi}^2$, that is, at large hadronic recoil. The $B\to K$ form factors entering the factorizable part of the…

In this paper, we investigate the helicity form factors (HFFs) of the $B_{(s)}$-meson decay into a scalar meson with a mass larger than 1~GeV, {\it i.e.,} $B \to a_0(1450)$, $B_{(s)} \to K_0^*(1430)$ and $B_{s} \to f_0(1500)$ by using…
We present the results of a lattice QCD calculation of the scalar and vector form factors for the unphysical $B_s\to\eta_s$ decay, over the full physical range of $q^2$. This is a useful testing ground both for lattice QCD and for our wider…
