Exclusive semileptonic decays of bottom and charm baryons are considered within a relativistic three-quark model with a Gaussian shape for the baryon-three-quark vertex and standard quark propagators. We calculate the baryonic Isgur-Wise…
In this work, we investigate the strong decays for $P-$wave excited states of doubly charmed and bottom baryons in the constituent quark model. Our results indicate that some $\lambda-$mode $\Xi_{cc/bb}(1P)$ and $\Omega_{cc/bb}(1P)$ states…
We study nonleptonic decays of the orbitally excited, \su6 \rep{70}-plet baryons in order to test the hypothesis that the successes of the nonrelativistic quark model have a natural explanation in the large-$N_c$ limit of QCD. By working in…
Properties of single beauty baryons ($\Sigma_{b},\Lambda_{b}$) are studied based on the quark-diquark structure. The confinement potential is assumed as two body colour coulomb plus power potential with exponent $\nu$. We find a strong…
The decay of $\Lambda_b\to\Sigma_c^{(*)}\pi l{\bar\nu}$ processes are calculated in the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory with help of the $1/N_c$ expansion. The decay rate distributions over $v\cdot v^{\prime}$ where $v$…
It is shown that the absolute rate of the semileptonic decays of the $\Xi_c$ baryons can be as much as two times higher than the semileptonic decay rate of $\Lambda_c$ due to the Pauli interference of the strange quark. This interference…
We derive consistency conditions which constrain the possible form of the strong couplings of the excited baryons to the pions. The consistency conditions follow from requiring the pion-excited baryon scattering amplitudes to satisfy the…
Sum rules for the low-energy constants of the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian with charmed baryons of spin J^P=1/2^+ and J^P=3/2^+ baryons are derived from large-N_c QCD. We consider the large-$N_c$ operator expansion at subleading orders for…
Single- and double- heavy baryons are studied in the constituent quark model. The model Hamiltonian is chosen as a standard one with two exceptions : (1) The color-Coulomb term depend on quark masses, and (2) an antisymmetric $LS$ force is…
We derive a theoretically allowed domain for the charge radius $\rho$ and curvature $c$ of the Isgur-Wise function describing the decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c l {\bar \nu_l}$. Our method uses crossing symmetry, dispersion relations and…
We present an analysis of semileptonic decays of orbitally, $P$-wave excited $B_{s}$ meson states $B^{**}_{s}$, including the newly found narrow $B_{s1}(5830)$ and $B^{*}_{s2}(5840)$ states, into low lying $D_{s}$ mesons ($D_{s}(1968)$,…
The semileptonic decays of heavy spin--1/2, $\Xi_{b(c)}$ and $\Xi'_{b(c)}$ baryons to the light spin-- 1/2, $\Xi$ and $\Sigma $ baryons are investigated in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules. In particular, using the most general…
Lepton flavor universality is a key prediction of the Standard Model of particle physics and any violation of it immediately indicates the existence of new physics. Given the recent more than $4\sigma$ discrepancy in charged current…
In the heavy quark limit, hadrons appear as eigenstates of the light degrees of freedom under the static color field of the heavy quark. In this formalism, the weak form factors appear naturally as the overlaps of the initial and final…
Recently, Stech found form factor relations for heavy to light transitions based on two simple dynamical assumptions for spectator partical. In this work we generalize his approach to the case of baryons and find that for…
In this work, we systematically study the mass spectra and strong decays of $1P$ and $2S$ charmed and charmed-strange baryons in the framework of nonrelativistic constituent quark models. With the light quark cluster-heavy quark picture,…
The spectrum of the $c qq$ baryons contains a few states whose nature is not clearly a three-quark composite and which might have a sizable baryon-meson component. Examples include the $\Sigma_c(2800)$ or the $\Lambda_c(2940)$. Here we…
