Exclusive semileptonic decays B->D_1(2420)l\bar\nu and B->D_2^*(2460)l\bar\nu are studied at the subleading order of the heavy quark expansion. The subleading Isgur-Wise functions resulted from the kinetic energy and chromomagnetic…

We study heavy light mesons in a QCD inspired quark model with the Cornell potential$-\frac{4\alpha_{S}}{3r}+br+c$. Here we consider the linear term $br$ as the parent and $-\frac{4\alpha_{S}}{3r}+c$ i.e.the Coloumbic part as the…
In order to extract some information on the CKM matrix element |Vcb|, we have to determine form factors in B decays. For this, we show that it is relevant to consider the non-forward amplitude between the heavy-light B and D mesons within…
The slope and curvature of Isgur Wise function for $B_{c}$ meson is computed in a QCD potential model in two different approaches of choosing the perturbative term of the Cornell potential. Based on heavy quark effective theory the…

Using previously formulated sum rules in the heavy quark limit of QCD, we demonstrate that if the slope rho^2 = -xi'(1) of the Isgur-Wise function xi(w) attains its lower bound 3/4, then all the derivatives (-1)^L xi^(L)(1) attain their…
