We calculate the Isgur-Wise function by measuring the elastic scattering amplitude of a $D$ meson in the quenched approximation on a $24^3\times48$ lattice at $\beta=6.2$, using an $O(a)$-improved fermion action. Fitting the resulting…
In the heavy quark limit of QCD, using the Operator Product Expansion and the non-forward amplitude, as proposed by Nikolai Uraltsev, we formulate sum rules that generalize Bjorken and Uraltsev sum rules. We recover the Uraltsev lower bound…
We present an investigation on the ligh flavor dependence of the Isgur-Wise function for $B_a\rightarrow D_a$ and $B_a\rightarrow D^{*}_a$ in the framework of QCD sum rules. It is found that the Isgur-Wise function for $B_s$ decay falls…
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…
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…
In a preceeding study in the heavy quark limit of QCD, it has been demonstrated that the best lower bound on the curvature of the Isgur-Wise function Xsi(w) is Xsi"(1) > (4rho2+3(rho2)2) > 15/16. The quadratic term (rho2)2 is dominant in a…
Isgur-Wise functions parametrise the leading behaviour of weak decay form factors of mesons and baryons containing a single heavy quark. The form factors for the quark mass operator are calculated in strong coupling lattice QCD, and…
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 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…
We investigate electromagnetic and weak form factors of heavy-light mesons in the context of point-form relativistic quantum mechanics. To this aim we treat the physical processes from which such electroweak form factors are extracted by…
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 review our method and numerical results for calculation of the Isgur-Wise function on the lattice. We present a discussion of the systematic errors. Using recent experimental results, we find $V_{cb} = 0.044\pm 0.005\pm .007$.…

The slope of the Isgur-Wise function at the normalization point, $\xi^{(1)}(1)$,is one of the basic parameters for the extraction of the $CKM$ matrix element $V_{cb}$ from exclusive semileptonic decay data. A method for measuring this…
We explore the influence on the Isgur-Wise function of the colour electric potential between heavy and light quarks in mesons. It is shown that in bag models, its inclusion tends to restore light quark flavour symmetry relative to the MIT…
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 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…
