The weak decays Xi_b -> Lambda_b pi and Xi_c -> Lambda_c pi, in which the heavy quark is not destroyed, are discussed. The branching fractions for these decays, corresponding to an absolute rate of order 0.01 ps^{-1}, should be at a one…
The semileptonic decays and two-body nonleptonic decays of light baryon octet ($T_8$) and decuplet ($T_{10}$) consisting of light $u,d,s$ quarks are studied with the SU(3) flavor symmetry in this work. We obtain the amplitude relations…
In this paper, the decay constants and mean square radii of pseudoscalar heavy mesons are studied in the SU(3) symmetry breaking. Within the light-front framework, the ratios $f_{D_s}/f_D$ and $f_{B_s}/f_B$ are individually estimated using…
In this work we use the heavy-quark-light-diquark picture to study the semileptonic decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c+l+\bar{\nu}_l$ in the so-called hybrid scheme. Namely, we apply the heavy quark effective theory (HQET) for larger $q^2$…
The path integral formulation is given to obtain quark and antiquark distribution functions in the nucleon within the flavor SU(3) version of the chiral quark soliton model. The basic model action is a straightforward generalization of the…
We evaluate the pseudoscalar-meson octet-baryon coupling constants and the corresponding axial charges in eight channels ($\pi N\N$, $\pi\Sigma\Sigma$, $\pi\Lambda\Sigma$, $K\Lambda N$, $K \Sigma N $, $\pi\Xi\Xi$, $K\Lambda\Xi$ and…
The SU(3) flavour symmetry breaking expansion in up, down and strange quark masses is extended from hadron masses to meson decay constants. This allows a determination of the ratio of kaon to pion decay constants in QCD. Furthermore when…
The fraction of the nucleon spin that is carried by the quarks, $\Delta \Sigma$, is computed in lattice QCD with dynamical staggered fermions. We obtain the value $\Delta \Sigma = 0.18 \pm 0.02$.
Isospin is an almost exact symmetry of strong interactions and the corrections to the isosymmetric limit are, in general, at the percent level. For several hadronic quantities relevant for flavour physics phenomenology, such as pseudoscalar…
