We evaluate the pseudoscalar-meson octet-baryon coupling constants and the corresponding axial charges in eight channels ($\pi N\N$, $\pi\Sigma\Sigma$, $\pi\Lambda\Sigma$, $K\Lambda N$, $K \Sigma N $, $\pi\Xi\Xi$, $K\Lambda\Xi$ and…
We extract the strong coupling constants of three mesons, each of which is composed of either two charm quarks or one charm quark and one light (i.e., $u$, $d$, or $s$) quark, from the matrix elements for the transitions of two of these…
Form factors and decay widths for $D^{\ast}\rightarrow D \gamma$ and $D^{\ast}\rightarrow D \pi$ decays are estimated in a relativistic constituent quark model. Relativistic corrections due to light quarks are found to be substantial and to…

We report an analysis of the impressive new lattice simulation results for octet baryon masses in 2+1-flavor QCD. The analysis is based on a low order expansion about the chiral SU(3) limit in which the symmetry breaking arises from terms…
Treating perturbatively the flavor symmetry breaking effects resided in the wave function as well as in the SU(3) Lagrangian, we calculate the strange form factors of decuplet baryons. The higher dimensional representation mixing components…

The strong $D_{2}^{*}(2460)^{0}\rightarrow D^+ \pi^- $ and $D_{s2}^{*}(2573)^{+}\rightarrow D^{+} K^{0}$ transitions are analyzed via three point QCD sum rules. First, we calculate the corresponding strong coupling constants $g_{D_2^*D\pi}$…
In this article, we take the point of view that the charmed axial-vector meson $D_{s1}(2460)$ is the conventional $c\bar{s}$ meson and calculate the strong coupling constant $g_{D_{s1} D^* K}$ in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum…
The SU(3) breaking effects due to light quark masses on heavy meson masses, decay constants ($F_{D}, F_{D_{s}}$) and the form factor for semileptonic $\overline{B}\rightarrow D^{(\ast)} l\bar{\nu}_{l}$ transitions are formulated in chiral…
In this article, we analyze tensor-vector-pseudoscalar(TVP) type of vertices $D_{2}^{*+}D^{+}\rho$, $D_{2}^{*0}D^{0}\rho$, $D_{2}^{*+}D^{+}\omega$, $D_{2}^{*0}D^{0}\omega$, $B_{2}^{*+}B^{+}\rho$, $B_{2}^{*0}B^{0}\rho$,…
Recent measurements of the branching ratios for the decays $\omega\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ and $\rho^0\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ lead to coupling constants of the $V\sigma\gamma$-interaction ($V$ is a vector meson) one order of magnitude smaller than…
We use QCD sum rules to study mass spectra of $P$-wave charmed baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$. We also use light-cone sum rules to study their $S$- and $D$-wave decays into ground-state charmed baryons together with light…

More and more excited baryons have been reported experimentally, but many properties are still unclear. This work attempts to simultaneously study the masses and strong decay widths of some singly heavy baryons, in order to provide possible…
