Decays of the fully beauty four-quark structures $X_{\mathrm{4b}}$ and $T_{ \mathrm{4b}}$ to $B$ meson pairs are investigated in the framework of QCD three-point sum rule method. We model the scalar exotic mesons $X_{\mathrm{4b }}$ and…

In this article, we take the scalar mesons $K^*_0(1430)$ and $a_0(1450)$ as the conventional two-quark states, and study the $B \to K^*_0(1430), a_0(1450)$ form-factors with the $B$-meson light-cone QCD sum rules, then take those…

We update the Standard-Model predictions for several quantities related to $B_s - \bar B_s$ and $B_d - \bar B_d$ mixing. The mass and width differences in the $B_s$ system read $ \Delta M_s^{\rm SM} = (17.3 \pm 2.6) ps^{-1}$ and $\Delta…

We use an appropriate combination of moments of finite energy sum rules in QCD in order to compute the B_q-meson decays constants f_B and f_{B_s}.We perform the calculation using a two-loop computation of the imaginary part of the…

We have studied the masse spectra for the $cc\bar{b}\bar{b}$/$bb\bar{c}\bar{c}$ tetraquark states with quantum numbers $J^{P}=0^{\pm},1^{\pm}$, and $2^{+}$. We systematically construct the interpolating currents with various spin-parity…

We use light-cone QCD sum rules to evaluate the strong coupling $g_{f_0 K^+ K^-}$ which enters in several analyses concerning the scalar $f_0(980)$ meson. The result: $6.2\le g_{f_0 K^+ K^-}\le 7.8$ GeV is larger than in previous…

We present a preliminary lattice determination of the masses and decay constants of the pseudoscalar and vector mesons $B_c$ and $B_c^*$. Our analysis is based on the gauge configurations produced by the European Twisted Mass Collaboration…

We present a detailed study of $B\to K_1(1270) \gamma$ and $B\to K_1(1400) \gamma$ decays. Using the light-cone sum rule technique, we calculate the $B\to K_{1A} (1^3P_1)$ and $B\to K_{1B} (1^1P_1)$ tensor form factors, $T_1^{K_{1A}}(0)$…

The baryon- coupling to its current ($\lambda_{B}$), in conventional QCD sum rule calculations (QCDSR), is shown to scale as the cubic power of the baryon mass, $M_B$. Some theoretical justification for it comes from a simple light-cone…

We demonstrate the feasibility of determining the strong coupling constant, $\alpha_s$, from the inclusive semileptonic decay width of $B$ mesons. We express the semileptonic $B$ decay width as a function of $\alpha_s(5\mathrm{\,GeV})$, the…

These lectures review some of the progress made in the quantitative understanding of B decays. The emphasis here is on applications of QCD using perturbative and non-perturbative techniques. In some cases, however, phenomenological models…
