Many known models, which generally use a factorization hypothesis, give a poor account of the decays B into J/psi + K(*). Usually there is a free overall factor, which is fit to the data, so that tests of the models rely upon ratios. The…

The scattering matrix for the full-line matrix Schr\"odinger equation is analyzed when the corresponding matrix-valued potential is selfadjoint, integrable, and has a finite first moment. The matrix-valued potential is decomposed into a…

Electron scattering at large Q^2 probes a nucleon's quark core. This core's contribution to electromagnetic form factors may be calculated using Poincare' covariant Faddeev amplitudes combined with a nucleon-photon vertex that automatically…

An exchange matrix $B$ dominates an exchange matrix $B'$ if the signs of corresponding entries weakly agree, with the entry of $B$ always having weakly greater absolute value. When $B$ dominates $B'$, interesting things happen in many cases…
The Born approximation to the quark-gluon-exchange mechanism for K$^+$N scattering is used as a starting point to generate a potential for this system. The valence quark wave function of the nucleon is generalized from a single Gaussian to…

We describe a consistent approach to factorization of scattering amplitudes for exclusive processes beyond the leading twist approximation. The method involves the Taylor expansion of the scattering amplitude in the momentum space around…
We revisit the photo-absorption sum rule for real Compton scattering from the proton and from nuclear targets. In analogy with the Thomas-Reiche-Kuhn sum rule appropriate at low energies, we propose a new "constituent quark model" sum rule…
