We estimate the heavy quark effective theory parameter \lambda_1 from inclusive semileptonic B-meson decay spectrum. By using recent CLEO double lepton tagging data of B -> X e nu, which shows the lepton momentum as low as 0.6 GeV, we…
In the large $N_c$ limit, all hyperon decays involving the same quark diagram $Q\to Q'$ are described by a single weak form factor $\eta_{QQ'}(w)$. No assumption on the mass of $Q$ or $Q'$ is necessary, making our results applicable to both…

We present results of the first lattice QCD calculations of $B_c \to B_s$ and $B_c \to B_d$ weak matrix elements. Form factors across the entire physical $q^2$ range are then extracted and extrapolated to the physical-continuum limit before…
Within the HQET, the heavy to light vector meson transitions are systematically analyzed to the order of 1/m_Q. Besides the four universal functions at the leading order, there are twenty-two independent universal form factors at the order…
The hierarchy of scales which would allow dimension-six contact interactions to parametrise New Physics may not be verified at colliders. Instead, we explore the feasability and usefulness of parametrising the high-energy tail of…

The tree level semileptonic $\Lambda_{b}\to pl\nu$ and $\Lambda_{c}\to nl\nu$ transitions are investigated using the light cone QCD sum rules approach in full theory. The spin--1/2, $\Lambda_{Q}$ baryon with $Q=b$ or $c$, is considered by…
We present our study on $B \to \pi l \nu$ semileptonic decay form factors with NRQCD action for heavy quark from a quenched lattice QCD simulation at $\beta$=5.9 on a $16^3\times 48$ lattice. We obtain form factors defined in the context of…
We calculate the form factors for the semileptonic decays $B_s\to K\ell\nu$ and $B\to K\ell\ell$ with lattice QCD. We work at several lattice spacings and a range of light quark masses, using the MILC 2+1-flavor asqtad ensembles. We use the…
