We develop the improved ladder approximation to QCD in order to apply it to the heavy quark mesons. The resulting Bethe-Salpeter equation is expanded in powers of the inverse heavy quark mass 1/M, and is shown to be consistent with the…

We consider the dominant $c\bar{c}$ contribution to $\Delta \Gamma$ for the $B_s^0$-$\bar{B}_s^0$ system in the heavy quark limit for both $b$ and $c$ quarks. In analogy with the Bjorken-Isgur-Wise sum rule in semileptonic heavy hadron…

We calculate the Isgur-Wise function on the lattice, simulating the light quark with the Wilson action and the heavy quark with a direct lattice implementation of the heavy-quark effective theory. Improved smearing functions produced by a…

We show that the sum rule recently proved by Uraltsev in the heavy quark limit of QCD holds in relativistic quark models \`a la Bakamjian and Thomas, that were already shown to satisfy Isgur-Wise scaling and Bjorken sum rule. This new sum…

We reconsider the recent derivation by de Rafael and Taron of bounds on the slope of the Isgur-Wise function. We argue that one must be careful to include cuts starting below the heavy meson pair production threshold, arising from heavy…

We use a $1S$ lattice QCD heavy-light wavefunction to generate a single parameter, model independent description of the Isgur-Wise function. Using recent data we find the zero-recoil slope to be $\xi'(1)= -1.16\pm 0.17$, while the second…

We compute the Isgur-Wise function using heavy quark effective theory formulated on the lattice. The non-relativistic kinetic energy term of the heavy quark is included to the action as well as terms remaining in the infinite quark mass…

In determining the mesonic wave function from QCD inspired potential model, if the linear confinement term is taken as parent (with columbic term as perturbation), Airy's function appears in the resultant wave function - which is an…

We study heavy light mesons in a QCD inspired quark model with the Cornell potential$-\frac{4\alpha_{S}}{3r}+br+c$. Here we consider the linear term $br$ as the parent and $-\frac{4\alpha_{S}}{3r}+c$ i.e.the Coloumbic part as the…

The modification of the naive potential model of the heavy meson is considered on the basis of the single-time prescription for the quark-meson form factor and the covariant choice of the quatk relative momentum. The application of the…

We study consequences of the non-forward amplitude for the semileptonic baryon decay Lambda_b into Lambda_c which will be measured in detail at LHCb. We obtain a sum rule for the subleading elastic Isgur-Wise (IW) function A(w) that…

We report some improved wave function for mesons taking linear confinement term in standard QCD potential as parent and Coulombic term as perturbation while applying quantum mechanical perturbation technique in solving Schrodinger equation…

We calculate the Isgur-Wise function by measuring the heavy-heavy meson transition matrix element on the lattice. The standard Wilson action is used for both the heavy and light quarks. Our first numerical results are presented.

The original de Rafael-Taron bound on the slope of the Isgur-Wise function at zero recoil is known to be violated in QCD by singularities appearing in an unphysical region. To be consistent, quark models must have corresponding singularity…

Two new sum rules were recently discovered by Le Yaouanc et al. by applying the operator product expansion to the nonforward matrix element of a time-ordered product of $b \to c$ currents in the heavy-quark limit of QCD. They lead to the…

We propose a group theoretical method to study Isgur-Wise functions. A current matrix element splits into a heavy quark matrix element and an overlap of the initial and final clouds, related to the IW functions, that contain the long…

We show how both the spectroscopy of heavy-light hadrons and the slope of the Isgur-Wise function can be simultaneously fitted when Heavy Quark Effective Theory is matched onto dynamical quark models, including careful treatment of wigner…

We calculate, in the framework of QCD sum rules and to next-to-leading order in perturbation theory, the universal function $\xi_3(v\cdot v')$ which appears at order $1/m_Q$ in the heavy quark expansion of meson weak decay form factors. We…
