Higher-loop corrections to the pseudoscalar ($0^{-+}$) gluonium correlation function will be used to obtain the leading gluon condensate contributions to the subtraction-independent QCD sum-rules. The effect of these higher-loop corrections…
We derive QCD sum rules from the nucleon two-point function in nuclear medium, calculating its specral function in chiral perturbation theory to one loop. Our calculation shows the inadequacy of the commonly used ansatz to represent the…
We revisit the QCD sum-rule treatment of the isospin-breaking axial correlator in light of the recent claim that a previous treatment produced results incompatible with known chiral constraints. The source of the error in the previous…
We investigate lowest-lying scalar meson properties predicted from QCD Laplace sum rules based upon isovector and isoscalar non-strange $\bar{q}q$ currents. The hadronic content of these sum rules incorporates deviations from the narrow…
Using the QCD sum rule approach we investigate the possible four-quark structure for the new observed $B_{s}^0\pi^\pm$ narrow structure (D0). We use a diquak-antidiquark scalar current and work to the order of $m_s$ in full QCD, without…
We study the higher order corrections of quark masses to the Gell-Mann$-$Oakes$-$Renner (GOR) relation by constructing QCD sum rules exclusively for pseudoscalar mesons from the axial-vector correlation function, $i \int d^4x~ e^{ip\cdot x}…

We apply the QCD sum rule method to systematically study excited light meson operators and calculate their decay constants. These operators are constructed by explicitly adding one covariant derivative to the quark-antiquark pair. In total,…

We develop a three-point formalism to treat vacuum susceptibilities used for the coupling of currents to hadrons within the method of QCD Sum Rules. By introducing nonlocal condensates, with the space-time structure taken from fits to…
We compare two widely used approaches to the description of hadron properties: QCD sum rules and constituent quark models. Making use of the dispersion formulation of the quark model, we show that both approaches lead to similar spectral…
Gaussian QCD sum-rules are ideally suited to the study of mixed states of gluonium (glueballs) and quark ($q\bar q$) mesons because of their capability to resolve widely-separated states of comparable strength. The analysis of the Gaussian…
The method of QCD sum rules at finite temperature is reviewed, with emphasis on recent results. These include predictions for the survival of charmonium and bottonium states, at and beyond the critical temperature for de-confinement, as…
Within the QCD sum-rule approach in an external field, we calculate the baryon matrix element of isovector-scalar current, $H_{\rm B}=\langle B|\overline{u}u- \overline{d}d|B\rangle/2M_{\rm B}$, for octet baryons, which appears in the…
Taking the gauge invariant quark correlator as an example, in this work we perform a direct comparison of lattice QCD simulations with the QCD sum rule approach. The quark correlator is first investigated in the framework of QCD sum rules…
We review some recent applications of QCD sum rules to $B$-decays. These include the determination of the leptonic constant $f_B$ and of the semileptonic transition amplitudes of the $B$-meson into negative and positive parity charmed…
The strong coupling constant g$_{h_{b}B_{c}^{PS}B_{c}^{V}}$ is calculated using the three-point QCD sum rules method. We use correlation functions to obtain these strong coupling constants with contributions of both B$_{c}^{PS} $ and…
In this article, we study the masses and pole residues of the pseudoscalar-diquark-pseudoscalar-antidiquark type and vector-diquark-vector-antidiquark type scalar hidden-charm $cu\bar{c}\bar{d}$ ($cu\bar{c}\bar{s}$) tetraquark states with…
We perform a QCD sum rule study of the open-charmed $D_s (2317)$ as a four-quark state. Using the diquark-antidiquark picture for the four-quark state, we consider four possible interpolating fields for $D_s (2317)$, namely, scalar-scalar,…
It is argued that it is valid to use QCD sum rules to determine the scalar and pseudoscalar two-point functions at zero momentum, which in turn determine the ratio of the strange to non-strange quark condensates $R_{su} = \frac{<\bar{s}…
