We pursue the group theoretical method to study Isgur-Wise functions. We apply the general formalism, formerly applied to the baryon case j^P = 0^+ (for \Lambda_b -> \Lambda_c \ell \nu), to mesons with j^P = 1/2^-, i.e. $\overline{B} ->…

In the heavy quark limit, the heavy baryon $\Lambda_Q$ (Q=b or c) can be regarded as composed of a heavy quark and a scalar light diquark which has good spin and flavor quantum numbers. Based on this picture we establish the Bethe-Salpeter…
