Three decades ago, heavy-flavor-conserving (HFC) weak decays of heavy baryons such as $\Xi_Q\to\Lambda_Q\pi$ and $\Omega_Q\to\Xi_Q\pi$ for $Q=c,b$ had been studied within the framework that incorporates both heavy-quark and chiral…

We analyze the $B\to (J/\psi, \chi_{c0},\chi_{c1},\eta_c)K^{(*)}$ decays, which have small or even vanishing branching ratios in naive factorization assumption (FA). We calculate nonfactorizable corrections to FA in the perturbative QCD…
We consider rare semileptonic decays of a heavy $D$-meson into a light vector meson in the framework of QCD factorization. In contrast to the corresponding $B$-meson decays, the naive factorization hypothesis does not even serve as a first…
Two-body charmless hadronic B decays involving a tensor meson in the final state are studied within the framework of QCD factorization (QCDF). Due to the G-parity of the tensor meson, both the chiral-even and chiral-odd two-parton…
The form factors of $B_{(s)}$ decays into P-wave excited charmed mesons (including $D^*_0(2300)$, $D_1(2430)$, $D_1(2420)$, $D^*_2(2460)$ and their strange counterparts, denoted generically as $D^{**}_{(s)}$) are systematically calculated…
The point-form version of the Bakamjian-Thomas construction is applied to the description of several semileptonic decays of mesons. Weak form factors are extracted without ambiguity for pseudoscalar-to-pseudoscalar as well as for…

Based on the measured four-dimensional rate for $D_{s}^+ to \phi e^+ \nu_e$ decays, we have determined the ratios of the three hadronic form factors, r_V=V(0)/A_1(0)= 1.636 \pm 0.067 \pm 0.038 and r_2=A_2(0)/A_1(0)= 0.705 \pm 0.056 \pm…
