We use the QCD sum rules to analize the hadronic decay $D_{sJ}^{+}(2317)\to D_s^+\pi^0$, in the hypotesis that the $D_{sJ}^{+}(2317)$ can be identified as a four-quark state. We use a diquak-antidiquark current and work to the order of…
The radiative decay is believed to be an ideal lab to study hadronic structure of newly observed resonances because the reactions are governed by only the electromagnetic interaction (tree level). However, to obtain correct theoretical…
The contribution of a $K^*(1430)$ $0^+$ resonance to $D^0\to K^-\pi^+$ is calculated by applying the soft pion theorem to $D^+ \to K^* \pi^+$, and is found to be about 30% of the measured amplitude and to be larger than the $\Delta I=3/2$…

We evaluate the branching ratios of the radiative decays $B \to K^* \gamma $, and $B \to K_1 \gamma $ in the framework of three-point function QCD sum rules. We find: $ \Gamma(B \to K^* \gamma) / \Gamma(b \to s \gamma) = 0.17 \pm 0.05$ and…
