We present preliminary results from our study of the heavy-light spectrum and decay constants. For the heavy quark, we use NRQCD at various masses around and above the $b$ quark mass. For the first time, the heavy quark action and the…

We analyze the thermal behavior of heavy vector and axial-vector mesons ($J/\psi$, $\Upsilon$, and $B_c$) within the finite-temperature QCD sum-rule framework. Using updated PDG-2024 quark masses, modern lattice-informed gluon condensates,…
We present a sum-rule extraction of the decay constants of the D, Ds, B, and Bs mesons from the two-point correlator of heavy-light pseudoscalar currents [1]. Our main emphasis is laid on the control over the uncertainties in the decay…
We study the F-wave c_bar s heavy meson doublets (2+,3+) and (3+,4+). They have large orbital excitations L=3, and may be good challenges (tests) for theoretical studies. To study them we use the method of QCD sum rule in the framework of…
We consider propagation of heavy quarks in QCD matter. Because of large quark mass, the radiative quark energy loss appears to be qualitatively different from that of light quarks at all energies of practical importance. Finite quark mass…
$B_{(s)}$ semi-leptonic decays to the light scalar meson, $B_{(s)}\to S l\bar{\nu}_l, S l \bar{l}\,\,(l=e,\mu,\tau)$, are investigated in the QCD light-cone sum rules (LCSR) with chiral current correlator. Having little knowledge of…
We focus on the chiral and heavy quark mass expansion of mesons masses and decay constants. We propose a light-front QCD formalism for the evaluation of these quantities, consistent with chiral perturbation theory and heavy quark effective…

In this work, we systematically investigate the mass spectra of fully heavy pentaquark states $QQQQ\bar{Q}$ within the framework of QCD sum rules. Employing three configurations of interpolating currents, we obtain the following mass…
In this talk I consider QCD sum rules for the ground state heavy baryons to leading order in $1/m_Q$ and at next-to-leading order in $\alpha_S$ within the context of Heavy Quark Symmetry. The analysis is done at a fixed scale $\mu=1 GeV$.…
Applying the QCD sum-rule machinery in the so-called local-duality shape to heavy-light mesons reveals that, as a consequence of the non-zero mass gap between up and down quarks, the leptonic decay constants of the neutral and charged…
