We propose a new estimate of the process $B \to (\rho, \omega)+ \gamma$ by using the light-cone QCD sum rule. The aim is to choose the chiral quark current operators in order to eliminate the uncertainty arising from the chiral-even…
We report on a recent computation of the form factors in semi-leptonic decays of the $\mathrm{B}_\mathrm{s}$ using Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) formalism applied on the lattice. The connection of the form factors with the 2-point and…
The matrix element of the weak transition {\Lambda}_b\rightarrow{\Lambda}_c can be expressed in terms of six form factors. {\Lambda}_Q(Q = b;c) can be regarded as composed of a heavy quark Q(Q = b;c) and a diquark which is made up of the…

We present the state-of-the-art of the light-cone sum rule approach to Baryon form factors. The essence of this approach is that soft Feynman contributions are calculated in terms of small transverse distance quantities using dispersion…

In this paper, we investigate the helicity form factors (HFFs) of the $B_{(s)}$-meson decay into a scalar meson with a mass larger than 1~GeV, {\it i.e.,} $B \to a_0(1450)$, $B_{(s)} \to K_0^*(1430)$ and $B_{s} \to f_0(1500)$ by using…
A new estimate is presented of the dileptonic $B$ decays $B\to\pi\ell^+\ell^-(\ell=e,\mu,\tau)$ in naive factorization within the standard-model (SM) framework. Using a combination of several approaches, we investigate the behavior of the…
In this paper we calculate the weak form factors of the decays $B_c(B)\to Dl\tilde\nu$ by using the chiral current correlator within the framework of the QCD light-cone sum rules (LCSR). The expressions of the form factors only depend on…
We compute for the first time the next-to-leading-order QCD corrections to the $\bar B_{(s)} \to D_{(s)}^{(\ast)}$ form factors at large hadronic recoil. Both the charm-quark-mass and the strange-quark-mass dependent pieces can generate the…
This work addresses the calculation of local form factors involved in the theoretical predictions of semileptonic $B$-meson decays at low $q^2$. We present a new approach to the method of QCD light-cone sum rule with $B$-meson light-cone…
The heavy quark effective theory makes model independent predictions for semileptonic $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c$ decays in terms of a small set of parameters. No subleading Isgur-Wise function occurs at order $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}/m_{c,b}$, and…
