We calculate the hadronic coupling constants $g_{NN\pi}$ and $g_{\rho\pi\pi}$ in QCD, including dynamical quarks in the framework of staggered fermions in the lattice approach. For the nucleon--pion coupling we obtain $g_{NN\pi} = 13.8 \pm…

We present two-flavor lattice QCD estimates of the hadronic couplings $g_{B^*_0 B \pi}$ and $g_{B_1^* B_0^* \pi}$ that parametrise the non leptonic decays $B^*_0 \to B \pi$ and $B^*_1 \to B_0^* \pi$. We use CLS two-flavour gauge ensembles.…

We calculate the strong coupling constants g_(P^(**)P^(*)\pi), where P^(**)(D^(**), B^(**)) is the 1^+ p-wave state, in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules, and using these values of g_(P^(**)P^(*) pi, we compute the hadronic…
