QCD sum rules on the light-cone are derived for the sum $f^+ + f^-$ of the $B\to \pi$ and $D\to \pi$ form factors taking into account contributions up to twist four. Combining the results with the corresponding $f^+$ form factors calculated…
We investigate the low-temperature phase of QCD and the crossover region with two light flavors of quarks. The chiral expansion around the point $(T,m=0)$ in the temperature vs. quark-mass plane indicates that a sharp real-time excitation…
