We investigate transition form factors between non-relativistic QCD bound states at large recoil energy. Assuming the decaying quark to be much heavier than its decay product, the relativistic dynamics can be treated according to the…
The accurate calculation of weak heavy-to-light form factors is crucial for the determination of CKM matrix elements from experimental data on B decays. In SCET, the soft-collinear effective theory, these form factors can, in the heavy…
QCD sum rules on the light-cone are derived for the sum $f^+ + f^-$ of the $B\to \pi$ and $D\to \pi$ form factors taking into account contributions up to twist four. Combining the results with the corresponding $f^+$ form factors calculated…
This work addresses the calculation of local form factors involved in the theoretical predictions of semileptonic $B$-meson decays at low $q^2$. We present a new approach to the method of QCD light-cone sum rule with $B$-meson light-cone…
Logarithmically enhanced effects due to radiation of soft gluons at large angles in $2\to 2$ QCD scattering processes are treated in terms of the "fifth form factor" that accompanies the four collinear singular Sudakov form factors attached…
We argue that soft non-factorisable terms give a significant contribution to the baryon form factors at intermediate momentum transfers and set up a framework for the calculation of such terms in the light-cone sum rule approach. Among…
By incorporating contributions from both the (chromo)electric scale $gT$ and (chromo)magnetic scale $g^2T$, we establish spectral sum rules of quarks for strongly coupled QCD that respect Fermi-Dirac statistics as required by quantum…
QCD equations for the generating functions are applied to separate soft and hard jets in $e^+e^-$-processes of multiparticle production. The dependence of average multiplicities and higher moments of multiplicity distributions of particles…
QCD sum rules are analytic predictions of hadron observables from quantum chromodynamics. In the so-called local-duality limit of their Borel-transformed form, all nonperturbative contributions are encompassed by just a single quantity, an…
We present a compact review of the status of QCD spectral sum rules until 2022. We emphasize the recent progresses for determining the QCD input parameters ($\alpha_s$, running quark masses, quark and gluon condensates) where their…
The gravitational form factors of a hadron are defined through the matrix elements of the energy-momentum tensor current, which can be decomposed into the quark and gluonic parts, between the hadronic states. These form factors provide…
In this work, we study the four form-factors $f_1(Q^2)$, $f_2(Q^2)$, $g_1(Q^2)$ and $g_2(Q^2)$ of the $\Sigma \to n$ in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach up to twist-6 three valence quark light-cone distribution…
A systematic analysis shows that the main uncertainties in the form factors are due to the twist-3 wave functions of the light mesons in the light-cone QCD sum rules. We propose an improved approach, in which the twist-3 wave functions…
I discuss aspects of the QCD sum rule method which attracted theorists' attention in earnest at a relatively late stage and are not yet fully solved. At first I briefly review such general topics as the structure of the operator product…
We review recent advances in the theory of strong-interaction effects and final-state interactions in hadronic weak decays of heavy mesons. In the heavy-quark limit, the amplitudes for most nonleptonic, two-body B decays can be calculated…
We discuss the form factors of the heavy-to-light transitions $B \ra \pi$ and $D\ra \pi$, the $B^*B \pi$ and $D^*D \pi$ coupling constants, and the nonfactorizable amplitude of the decay $ B \ra J/\psi K$ in the framework of QCD sum rules.
We review theoretical approaches to form factors that arise in heavy-meson decays and are hadronic expressions of non-perturbative QCD. After motivating their origin in QCD factorisation, we retrace their evolution from quark-model…
In this article, we calculate the scalar form-factor of the proton in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach with the three valence quark light-cone distribution amplitudes up to twist-6, and observe the scalar form-factor…
We construct QCD sum rules for nonperturbative studies without assuming the quark-hadron duality for the spectral density at low energy on the hadron side. Instead, both resonance and continuum contributions to the spectral density are…
We suggest a new approach for calculating heavy-to-light form factors. The method is based on light cone sum rules (LCSR) and covers the whole kinematical range of momentum transfer. The derivation of the new sum rule uses a suitable…
