I review this year's developments in the study of weak matrix elements of light hadrons on the lattice, with emphasis on K^0-\bar K^0 mixing and K -> pi pi decays.
To know and understand form factors of hadronic currents is of decisive importance for analysing exclusive weak decays. The ratios of different form factors of a given process depend on the relativistic spin structure of initial and final…
We present our model-independent and data-driven method to describe pseudoscalar meson transition form factors in the space- and (low-energy) time-like regions. The method is general and conforms a toolkit applicable to any other form…
We employ a Dyson-Schwinger equation model to effect a unified and uniformly accurate description of light- and heavy-meson observables, which we characterise by heavy-meson leptonic decays, semileptonic heavy-to-heavy and heavy-to-light…
We present the new analysis of the semileptonic B decays in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach. Decays both to heavy D^{(*)} and light \pi(\rho) mesons are considered. All relativistic effects…
Predictions for semi-leptonic decay rates of the tau lepton into two and three meson final states with one or two kaons are derived, including a discussion of K_S pi- K_S, K_L pi- K_L and K_S pi- K_L. The hadronic matrix elements are…

Semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of the B_c meson are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark model. The heavy quark expansion in inverse powers of the heavy (b,c) quark mass is used to simplify calculations while the light…
We investigate the form factors and decay rates for the semileptonic decays of the kaon($K_{l3})$ using the light-front quark model. The form factors $f_{\pm}(q^{2})$ are calculated in $q^{+}=0$ frame and analytically continued to the…
We construct a leading-order effective field theory for both scalar and axial-vector heavy diquarks, and consider its power expansion in the heavy diquark limit. By assuming the transition from QCD to diquark effective theory, we derive the…
A recent model of hadron states is extended to include meson decays. We find that the overall success of the model is quite good. Possible improvements to the model are suggested.
We construct an effective Lagrangian of heavy and light mesons with $1/M_Q$ correction. The Lagrangian is constructed model independent way by using only the information of the symmetry of QCD. Reparameterisation invariance at the meson…
Weak current-induced baryonic form factors at zero recoil are evaluated in the rest frame of the heavy parent baryon using the nonrelativistic quark model. Contrary to previous similar work in the literature, our quark model results do…
We discuss various topics in the theory of heavy baryon decays. Among these are recent applications of the Relativistic Three Quark Model to semileptonic, nonleptonic, one-pion and one-photon transitions among heavy baryons, new higher…
Within the framework of light-front field theory, we reassess the electromagnetic form factors of the pion and kaon. Comparison with experiment is made for the full range of momentum transfer, q^2<0, including recent data. The light-front…
The decays of narrow light vector mesons into pseudoscalar mesons and dileptons are calculated to leading order in a recently proposed scheme which treats pseudoscalar and vector mesons on equal footing. Since all required parameters have…
The rare decays of mesons are higher order effects in weak interactions. The main contributions to such decay processes are from the Z-penguin, the photonpenguin and the box diagram. At the quark level, these contributions are well known.…
Weak radiative hyperon decays are considered in the framework of a quark model. The phenomenological model includes 1-quark transitions with the effective $sd\gamma$-vertex and 2-quark ones with the W-exchange $s+u\to u+d+\gamma$ and turns…
