A field theoretic description for inclusive semileptonic B meson decays is formulated. We argue that large regions of the phase spaces for the decays are dominated by distances near the light cone. The light-cone dominance allows to…
Employing the light-cone sum rule approach in QCD, we relate the $B$-meson distribution amplitude to the $B\to \pi$ form factor at zero momentum transfer. In leading order, the sum rule is converted into a simple expression for the inverse…

We study light-cone distribution amplitudes of heavy-light systems, such as a B-meson. By an explicit computation, we determine how two-parton distribution amplitudes mix with three-parton ones at one loop: \phi_+ is shown to mix only into…
The physics of heavy quarks becomes a very reach area of study thanks to an excellent operation of hadron colliders and $B$-factories and exciting results from them. Experimental data obtained allows to get some information about the heavy…
We obtain new estimates for the parameters $\lambda_{E}^2$, $\lambda_H^2$ and their ratio $\mathcal{R} = \lambda_{E}^2/\lambda_H^2$, which appear in the second moments of the $B$-meson light-cone distribution amplitudes defined in the…
The $\eta^{(\prime)}$-mesons in the quark-flavor basis are mixtures of two mesonic states $|\eta_{q}\rangle=|\bar u u+\bar d d\rangle/\sqrt 2$ and $|\eta_{s}\rangle=|\bar s s\rangle$. In the previous work, we have made a detailed study on…
We study the radiative decay B -> gamma l nu_l in the framework of QCD factorization. We demonstrate explicitly that, in the heavy-quark limit and at one-loop order in perturbation theory, the amplitude does factorize, i.e. that it can be…

We propose a parametrization of the leading $B$-meson light-cone distribution amplitude (LCDA) in heavy-quark effective theory (HQET). In position space, it uses a conformal transformation that yields a systematic Taylor expansion and an…
