The Lambda_b to Lambda_c semileptonic decay is analyzed in the framework of heavy quark effective theory to the order of 1/m_c and 1/m_b. The QCD sum rule and large N_c predictions to the decay form factors are applied. It argues that the…

We present the first two-loop calculation of the heavy quark energy shift in lattice nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD). This calculation allow us to extract a preliminary prediction of $m_b(m_b, n_f = 5) = 4.25(12)$ GeV for the mass of the b…
This is a short review of the present status of the dynamics of the heavy quarks extracted from QCD spectral sum rules. We discuss the determination of the ``perturbative" quark mass, the decay constants of the $D$ and $B$ mesons, the form…
We derive QCD sum rules for heavy baryons at leading order in $1/m_Q$ and at next-to-leading order in $\alpha_s$. The calculation involves the evaluation of four different perturbative three-loop diagrams which determine the…
