The semileptonic decay B -> pi l nu is one of the most important reactions for the determination of the CKM matrix element |V_{ub}|. However, in order to extract |V_{ub}| from data one needs an accurate theoretical calculation of the…

The formfactors of B_1 -> pi and D_1 -> pi transitions, where B_1(D_1) is the 1^+ P-wave -> Q gamma_{\nu}\gamma_5q meson state, are calculated in the framework of the light cone QCD. Furthermore these formfactors are compared with the pole…
