The form factors of weak decays of $B_s$ mesons to ground state $D_s^{(*)}$ mesons as well as to their radial $D_s^{(*)}(2S)$ and orbital $D_{sJ}^{(*)}$ excitations are calculated in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on…
We examine the semileptonic $B \to D^{(*)} \ell \nu_\ell$ and $B \to \pi \ell \nu_\ell$ decays adopting the unitarity-based Dispersive Matrix (DM) method, which allows to determine the shape of the relevant hadronic form factors (FFs) in…

We study the inclusive charmless semileptonic decay of $\Lambda_b$, $\Lambda_b \to X_u l \nu_l$, in the framework of heavy quark expansion and find that the rate is substantially enhanced by spectator effect. We obtain $Br(b \to X_u l…
We analyze $D \to P V$, $D \to PP$ and $D \to VV$ decays within a model developed to describe the semileptonic decays $D \to V l \nu_l$ and $D\to P l \nu_l$. This model combines the heavy quark effective Lagrangian and chiral perturbation…

We consider rare semileptonic decays of a heavy $D$-meson into a light vector meson in the framework of QCD factorization. In contrast to the corresponding $B$-meson decays, the naive factorization hypothesis does not even serve as a first…
