Like the even chirality correlation functions of, say, the two vector currents, one can also consider odd chirality correlation functions to write thermal QCD sum rules. They contain fewer non-perturbative corrections, at least to the…
Chiral symmetry and heavy quark symmetry constrain the interactions of mesons containing a single heavy quark with low-momentum pions. Chiral corrections to the Isgur-Wise function for $\bar B_s \rightarrow D_s^{(*)}$ versus $\bar B…

In this study, we calculate the mixing angles between the axial-vector mesons $D_{1(s1)} - D_{1(s1)}^\prime$ and $B_{1(s1)} - B_{1(s1)}^\prime$ using the QCD sum rules approach. Our results are $\theta_1 = 28.2 \pm 0.6^\circ$, $\theta_2 =…
We study the in-medium properties of $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons in isospin-asymmetric nuclear matter at finite temperatures using an effective chiral SU(4) model. The interactions of $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons with nucleons, scalar isoscalar…
We estimate the strong coupling constants of charmed and bottom mesons $ D_{(s)}^* $, $ D_{(s)1} $, $ B_{(s)}^* $, and $ B_{(s)1} $ with light vector mesons $ \rho $, $ \omega $, $ K^* $, and $ \phi $ within the framework of light-cone QCD…
We use QCD sum rules to study the masses of the baryons $\Xi_c$ and $\Xi_b$. We work with a current where the strange and the light quarks are in a relative spin zero, at leading order in $\alpha_s$. We consider the contributions of…
Uses of QCD sum rules for heavy flavoured hadrons are discussed. "Standard" applications such as the determination of the $b$, $c$ quark masses, the calculation of $f_B$, $f_D$ and of the heavy-to-light form factors are overviewed.…
Scalar mesons are a key expression of the strong physics regime of QCD and the role condensates, particularly $<q{\bar q}>$, play in breaking chiral symmetry. What new insights have been provided by recent experiments on $D, D_s$ and…
We calculate the nucleon parameters in nuclear matter using the QCD sum rules approach in Fermi gas approximation. Terms up to 1/q^2 in the operator product expansion (OPE) are taken into account. The higher moments of the nucleon structure…

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…
