We study the first power correction to the heavy electron form factor in QED and show that it factorizes as a derivative operator. We discuss the result in QED with no light fermions, where the first power correction can be written…
We calculate the branching ratios of the hadronic \Lambda_b decays to \eta and \eta^\prime in the factorization approximation where the form factors are estimated via QCD sum rules and the pole model. Our results indicate that, contrary to…
