We evaluate the decay constants for the B and $D$ mesons and the form factors for the semileptonic decays of the B meson to $D$ and $D^*$ mesons in a Bethe-Salpeter model. From data we extract $V_{cb}=0.039 \pm 0.002$ from ${\bar B} \to D^*…
We present recent preliminary results from five decay channels. From the $K_L\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ channel, we extract form factors for the CP violating M1 direct photon emission amplitude and the fraction of the total decay amplitude that…
A symmetry-preserving continuum approach to meson bound-states in quantum field theory, employed elsewhere to describe numerous $\pi$- and $K$-meson electroweak processes, is used to analyse leptonic and semileptonic decays of $D_{(s)}$…
We study the $f^+$ form factor for the $\bar B_s\to K^+\ell^-\bar\nu_\ell$ semileptonic decay in a nonrelativistic quark model. The valence quark contribution is supplemented with a $\bar B^*$-pole term that dominates the high $q^2$ region.…
The fully differential angular distribution for the rare flavor-changing neutral current decay {\bar B}_d^0 -> {\bar K}^{*0} (-> K^- \pi^+) e+ e- is studied. The emphasis is placed on accurate treatment of the contribution from the…
A combined analysis of data on isoscalar S-wave processes $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\overline{K},\eta\eta$ and on decays $J/\psi\to\phi\pi\pi,\phi K\overline{K}$ from the DM2, Mark III and BESIII collaborations is performed to study $f_0$ mesons.…
We present the first results for the Kl3 form factor from simulations with 2+1 flavours of dynamical domain wall quarks. Combining our result, namely f_+(0)=0.964(5), with the latest experimental results for Kl3 decays leads to…
Recently, we introduced several dispersive representations for the vector $K\pi$ form factor and fitted them to the Belle spectrum of $\tau \to K \pi \nu_\tau$. Here, we briefly present the model and discuss the results for the slope and…
We present a measurement of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cb}|$ times the form factor normalization $\mathcal{F}(1)$ using the decay $B^+\to\bar D^{*0}\ell^+\nu_\ell$. This measurement is performed together with a…

QCD sum rules for the determination of form factors of $\Lambda_b$ and $\Lambda_c$ semileptonic decays are investigated. With a form for the baryonic current appropriate for the limits of the heavy quark symmetries, the different tensor…
The $K^+ \to \pi^0 \pi^0 e^+ \nu$ ($K_{e4}^{00}$) decay has been measured with stopped positive kaons for a data sample of 216 events. A comparison of the observed spectra with a Monte Carlo simulation determined the $K_{e4}^{00}$ form…
