In this study, the properties of the $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ hidden charm poles are analyzed under the variation of the bare 2P charmonium mass within the effective field theory proposed in Ref.[1]. The main focus of the current work is on the pole…
We study radiative corrections to $\bar{B} \to X_c \ell \bar{\nu}_\ell$ decays assuming the power counting $m_c \sim \sqrt{\Lambda_QCD m_b}$ for the charm-quark mass. Concentrating on the shape-function region, we use effective field-theory…
We consider contributions to the rare decay K+ -> pi+ nu nubar which become nonlocal at the charm scale. Compared to the leading term, such amplitudes are suppressed by two powers of mK/mc and could potentially give corrections at the level…

Motivated by diquark exchange, we construct a class of extensions of the standard model. These models can generate large CP conserving and CP violating contributions to the doubly Cabbibo suppressed decays D^0\to K^+\pi^- without affecting…
Studies of heavy-quark (charm and beauty) production in hadronic and nuclear collisions provide excellent testing grounds for the theory of strong interaction, quantum chromodynamics. Heavy-quarks are produced predominantly in the initial…
The finite energy sum rule extraction of the strong coupling {\alpha}_s from hadronic {\tau} decay data provides one of its most precise experimental determinations. As precision improves, small non-perturbative effects become increasingly…
Rare charm decays offer the unique possibility to explore flavour-changing neutral-currents in the up-sector within the Standard Model and beyond. Due to the lack of effective methods to reliably describe its low energy dynamics, rare charm…
The inclusion of electromagnetism in a low energy effective theory is worth further study in view of the present high precision experiments (muon g-2, pi_0->2 gamma, tau decays, etc.). In particular in many applications of chiral…
We investigate the potential for searching and identifying the leptoquark (LQ) effects in the charm sector through the low-energy polarized scattering processes $\vec{e}^{\,-}p\to e^-\Lambda_c$, $e^-\vec{p}\to e^-\Lambda_c$, and…
Heavy quark effective theory can be used to calculate the values of the semileptonic B^(*) -> D^(*) decays in the limit that the heavy quark masses are infinite. We calculate the lowest order chiral corrections, which are of O(1/M^2), from…
We establish that the charmed hadrons start dissociating at the chiral crossover temperature, ${T_{pc}}$, leading to the appearance of charm degrees freedom carrying fractional baryon number. Our method is based on analyzing the second and…
Physical contribution of the high-energy part of hadronic spectrum is incorporated to describe the short-distance part of the correlator of heavy-quark currents obtained by quenched Monte-Carlo on a $8^3*16$- and $16^3*32$-lattices for…
The perturbative QCD fragmentation functions can be applied phenomenologically as a model for charm and bottom quark fragmentation into heavy-light mesons. The predictions by this model on the observables $P_V$ and $\langle z \rangle$ for…
The quark-connected and the quark-disconnected Wick contractions contributing to the pion's scalar form factor are computed in the two and in the three flavour chiral effective theory at next-to-leading order. While the quark-disconnected…
The use of correlation between two open-charm mesons is suggested to give information about the nature of the medium created in heavy-ion collisions. Insensitivity to the charm production rate is achieved by measuring normalized cumulant.…

Recent data for the masses of $D$ and $D^*$ mesons determined using methods of lattice QCD for several values of the charm quark mass different from its physical mass are analysed in Heavy Quark Effective Theory. Nonperturbative parameters…
