In this work, we derive the form factors and compute the branching fractions for the semitauonic decay modes, $B \to D^{(*)}\,\tau\,\nu_{\tau}$, $B_s \to D_s^{(*)}\,\tau\,\nu_{\tau}$, $B_c \to \eta_c\,(J/\psi)\,\tau\,\nu_{\tau}$, and $B_c…
Long distance effects are studied in the rare exclusive semileptonic $B_{(d,s)}\to V \ell^+ \ell^-$ decays, where $V$ denotes a $K^*$ or $\phi$ meson. The form factors, which describe the meson transition amplitudes in the effective…
We use QCD sum rules to estimate the universal form factors describing the semileptonic B decays into excited charmed resonances, such as the $1^-$ and $2^-$ states $D_1^{*}$ and $D_2^{*}$ belonging to the $s_\ell^P={3/2}^-$ heavy quark…
The persistent anomalies observed in $B$ mesons related to $b \to s \mu^+ \mu^-$ transitions point to the potential for new physics beyond the Standard Model. To explore this further, we conduct an analysis of the exclusive semileptonic…
Using the QCD sum rules technique we study several aspects of the phenomenology of the b-flavoured strange meson $B_s^0$. In particular, we evaluate the mass of the particle, the leptonic constant and the form factors of the decays…
The form factors of the semileptonic $B_c\to S(AV)\ell\nu$ $(\ell=\tau, \mu, e)$ transitions, where S and AV denote the scalar $X_{c0}$ and axial vector $(X_{c1}, h_{c})$ mesons, are calculated within the framework of the three-point QCD…
We investigate the decays $B_c^- \rightarrow D_{s}^{(*)-}\ell^+\ell^-$ and $B_c^- \rightarrow D_{s}^{(*)-}\nu\bar{\nu}$ within the Standard Model (SM), employing perturbative QCD form factors that are sensitive to the wave functions of…
