We consider the transverse momentum spectrum and the $\cos 2\phi$ azimuthal distribution of $J/\psi$ mesons produced in semi-inclusive, deep-inelastic electron-proton scattering, where the electron and the proton are unpolarized. At low…
We construct three different sum rules from the two-point correlation function with pion, $i\int d^4x e^{iq\cdot x} <0| T J_N(x) {\bar J}_N(0)|\pi(p)>$, beyond the soft-pion limit. The PS and PV coupling schemes in the construction of the…
We calculate the $D^*D\pi$ and $B^*B\pi$ couplings using QCD sum rules on the light-cone. In this approach, the large-distance dynamics is incorporated in a set of pion wave functions. We take into account two-particle and three-particle…

QCD sum rules on the light-cone are derived for the sum $f^+ + f^-$ of the $B\to \pi$ and $D\to \pi$ form factors taking into account contributions up to twist four. Combining the results with the corresponding $f^+$ form factors calculated…
