In this article, we analyze the vertex $D^*D^*\rho$ with the light-cone QCD sum rules. The strong coupling constant $g_{D^*D^*\rho}$ is an important parameter in evaluating the charmonium absorption cross sections in searching for the…

We investigate lowest-lying scalar meson properties predicted from QCD Laplace sum rules based upon isovector and isoscalar non-strange $\bar{q}q$ currents. The hadronic content of these sum rules incorporates deviations from the narrow…
Revisiting the QCD sum-rule description of exotic hadron states, we argue that, in order to arrive at trustable analyses of, for instance, strong decay widths of multiquarks, it is inevitable to adopt the QCD sum-rule approach beyond the…

Gaussian QCD sum-rules are ideally suited to the study of mixed states of gluonium (glueballs) and quark ($q\bar q$) mesons because of their capability to resolve widely-separated states of comparable strength. The analysis of the Gaussian…
We explore, by a rather peculiar limit of QCD sum rules subject to a Borel transformation (realized by allowing the related Borel mass parameter to approach infinity), how the small difference of the masses of up and down quark translates…
The procedure of extracting the ground-state parameters from vacuum-to-vacuum and vacuum-to-hadron correlators within the method of sum rules is considered. The emphasis is laid on the crucial ingredient of this method - the effective…
We propose a new estimate of the process $B \to (\rho, \omega)+ \gamma$ by using the light-cone QCD sum rule. The aim is to choose the chiral quark current operators in order to eliminate the uncertainty arising from the chiral-even…
We employ renormalization group (RG) summation techniques to obtain portions of Laplace QCD sum rules for scalar gluon currents beyond the order to which they have been explicitly calculated. The first two of these sum rules are considered…
Within the realm of QCD sum rules, one of the most important areas of application of this nonperturbative approach is the prediction of the decay constants of heavy mesons. However, in spite of the fact that, indisputably, the adopted…
By matching the world of hadrons to that of some effective chiral quark theory, we determine the induced condensates for QCD sum rules in the presence of an external pion field. The observed values of the strong and weak $\pi NN$ coupling…
We generalize a forward light-by-light scattering sum rule to the case of heavy quarkonium radiative transitions. We apply such sum rule to the bottomonium states, and use available data on radiative transitions in its evaluation. For the…
In the QCD Sum Rule determination of $m_s$ using the two-point correlator of divergences of $\Delta S=1$ vector currents, the final uncertainty on $m_s$ is mainly due to the hadronic spectral function. Using a specific parameterization…
