The need to map parton-level processes to color-neutral hadrons in a way that respects quark-hadron duality arises in several areas of physics, including in the semileptonic decays of $B$ mesons. Integrated over large regions of phase…
The ratio of the measured $\bar B\to D^{(*)}\ell\bar{\nu}$ decay rates for $\ell = \tau$ vs. $e,\mu$ deviate from the Standard Model (SM) by about $4\sigma$. We show that the data are in tension with the SM, independent of form factor…

The transition form factors of the semileptonic decay B_s into scalar D_{s_0}(2317) meson is calculated in the framework of 3-point QCD sum rule. The branching ratio is found to be ~10^(-3) for the (B_s -> D_{s_0}(2317) l nu_l) (l=e,mu)…
Heavy-to-heavy semileptonic decays, particularly the bottom-to-charm quark transitions, are essential for testing the Standard Model (SM) and extracting the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements. These decays have been extensively…

By using a constituent quark model we compute the form factors relevant to semileptonic transitions of B mesons into low-lying p-wave charmed mesons. We evaluate the q^2 dependence of these form factors and compare them with other model…
We calculate form-factor ratios between the semileptonic decays \bar{B}->D^+\ell^-\bar{\nu} and \bar{B}_s->D_s^+\ell^-\bar{\nu} with lattice QCD. These ratios are a key theoretical input in a new strategy to determine the fragmentation…
