Applying the method of light-cone sum rules with photon distribution amplitudes, we compute the subleading-power correction to the radiative leptonic $B \to \gamma \ell \nu$ decay, at next-to-leading order in QCD for the twist-two…
We show how to encode the radiative degrees of freedom in $4$-dimensional asymptotically AdS spacetimes, using the boundary Cotton and stress tensors. Background radiation leads to a reduction of the asymptotic symmetry group, in contrast…
In this work we introduce a new channel to indirect search for the light charged Higgs bosons, which are predicted in several extensions of the standard model (SM) such as the two-Higgs-doublet models (2HDMs). We calculate the ${\cal…
We study the decays of $B_{s,d} \to l^+ l^- \gamma (l=e, \mu,\tau)$ within the light-front model. We calculate the tensor type form factors and use these form factors to evaluate the decay branching ratios. We find that, in the standard…

In this article, we calculate the $B_c^* \to B_c$ electromagnetic form-factor with the three-point QCD sum rules, then study the radiative decays $ B_c^{*\pm} \to B_c^{\pm} \gamma$. Experimentally, we can study the radiative transitions…
We study the $f^+$ form factor for the $\bar B_s\to K^+\ell^-\bar\nu_\ell$ semileptonic decay in a nonrelativistic quark model. The valence quark contribution is supplemented with a $\bar B^*$-pole term that dominates the high $q^2$ region.…
In the $\rm SU(3)_F$ symmetry limit, using two- and three-particle distribution amplitudes of $B^{\pm}$-meson for $B_s$, the transition form factors of semileptonic $B_{s}\to K_{0}^*(1430)$ decays are calculated in the framework of the…
In this work, the transition form factors are calculated for the semileptonic $D_{(s)} \to A \ell^+ \nu$ where $A=a_{1}, b_{1}, K_{1}(1270,1400)$, i.e., $D^{+} \to a^{0}_{1} (b^{0}_{1}, K^{0}_{1}) \ell^+ \nu$, $D^{0} \to a^{-}_{1}…
We calculate the independent helicity amplitudes in the decays $B \to K^* \ell^+ \ell^-$ and $B \to \rho \ell \nu_\ell$ in the so-called Large-Energy-Effective-Theory (LEET). Taking into account the dominant $O(\alpha_s)$ and SU(3)…
We describe the observed light-baryon spectrum by extending superconformal quantum mechanics to the light front and its embedding in AdS space. This procedure uniquely determines the confinement potential for arbitrary half-integer spin. To…
The main purpose of the present paper is to lay the foundations of generalizing the AdS/CFT (holography) idea beyond the conformal setting. The main tool is to find suitable realizations of the bulk and boundary via group theory. We use all…
We study rare radiative leptonic decays $B_{(s)}\to e^+e^-\gamma$ and $B_{(s)}\to \mu^+\mu^-\gamma$ within relativistic quark model. In addition to previous analysis we give the estimations of the branching ratios for four values of the…
In this article, we calculate the $B_c^* \to \eta_c$ form-factors with the three-point QCD sum rules, then study the semileptonic decays $B_c^* \to \eta_c \ell \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$. The tiny decay widths may be observed experimentally in the…
$B_s \to \mu^+ \mu^- \gamma$, measured at high $q^2$ as a partially reconstructed decay, can probe the origin of the existing discrepancies in semi-leptonic $b \to s$ and $b \to c$ decays. We perform a complete study of this possibility. We…
The angular distributions of the rare decays $B^+ \to K^+\mu^+\mu^-$ and $B^0 \to K^0_{\rm\scriptscriptstyle S}\mu^+\mu^-$ are studied with data corresponding to 3$~$fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, collected in proton-proton collisions…
Semileptonic decays $D\to K,K^*,\pi,\rho$, $D_s\to \eta,\eta',\phi$, and $B\to D,D^*,\pi,\rho$ are analyzed within the dispersion formulation of the quark model. The form factors at timelike $q$ are derived by the analytical continuation…
In the covariant light-front quark model, we investigate the $B_c\to h_c, \chi_{c0,1,2}$ form factors. The form factors are evaluated in space-like kinematic region and are recasted to the physical region by adopting the exponential…
We show -- by explicit computation of first-order corrections -- that the QCD factorization approach previously applied to hadronic two-body decays and to form factor ratios also allows us to compute non-factorizable corrections to…
A remarkable holographic feature of dynamics in AdS space in five dimensions is that it is dual to Hamiltonian theory in physical space-time, quantized at fixed light-front time {\tau} = t+z/c. This light-front holographic principle…
