We investigate the exclusive semileptonic $B_c\to (D,\eta_c,B,B_s)\ell\nu_\ell$, $\eta_b\to B_c\ell\nu_\ell$($\ell=e,\mu,\tau$) decays using the light-front quark model constrained by the variational principle for the QCD motivated…

We consider nonleptonic B decays into two light mesons at leading order in soft-collinear effective theory, and show that the decay amplitudes are factorized to all orders in alpha_s. The operators for nonleptonic B decays in the full…
The inclusive and exclusive semileptonic decay distributions for b -> c decay are computed in the Shifman-Voloshin limit. The inclusive decay distributions (computed using an operator product expansion) depend on quark masses, and the…
We calculate semileptonic decays of light and heavy baryons in a relativistically covariant constituent quark model. The model is based on the Bethe-Salpeter-equation in instantaneous approximation. It generates satisfactory mass spectra…
