The weak form factor for $B\to K_{1B}$ where $K_{1B}$ is the $^1P_1$ state is calculated in the light-cone sum rules (LCSR). Combining the quark model result for the form factor of $B\to K_{1A}$ with $K_{1A}$ being the $^3P_1$ state, we…
A systematic analysis is presented of the $B_{s}\to K$ form factor $f(q^{2}) $ in the whole range of momentum transfer $q^{2}$, which would be useful to analyzing the future data on $B_{s}\to K$ decays and extracting $| V_{ub}|$. With a…
