The goal of this thesis is to calculate properties of D-Mesons with QCD-Sum-Rules in order to understand the nature of D-Mesons with positive parity. The result is that such D-Mesons most probably are Mesons with a four quark rather than a…
We use information from rare nonleptonic decays of heavy-quark mesons to put new bounds on the magnitudes of certain product combinations of baryon nonconserving R-parity violating couplings in supersymmetric models. Product combinations of…
Rigorous QCD predictions for decay rates of the P-wave states of heavy quarkonia are presented. They are based on a new factorization theorem which is valid to leading order in the heavy quark velocity and to all orders in the running…
Contributions to the decay rates of P-wave charmonium states that are proportional to $n_f \alpha_s^3$, where $n_f$ is the number of flavors of light quarks, are calculated in the framework of nonrelativistic QCD using the threshold…

We study factorizable contributions to two-body nonleptonic decays of $B$ mesons using the light-cone sum rule method. By constructing three-point correlation functions and incorporating light-cone distribution amplitudes, we compute the…
We present an analysis of semileptonic decays of orbitally, $P$-wave excited $B_{s}$ meson states $B^{**}_{s}$, including the newly found narrow $B_{s1}(5830)$ and $B^{*}_{s2}(5840)$ states, into low lying $D_{s}$ mesons ($D_{s}(1968)$,…
The 1/$N_c$ arguments are developed to classify the hadronic states in the correlators. Arguments applied to the $\sigma$ meson correlator enable to separate the instanton, glueball, and, in particular, the $\pi\pi$ scattering states by…
In this work, we calculate the $CP$-averaged branching ratios and direct $CP$-violating asymmetries of the quasi-two-body decays $B_{(s)}\to P f_2(1270)\to P\pi\pi$ with the two-pion distribution amplitude $\Phi_{\pi\pi}^{\rm D}$ by using…
Applying asymptotic expansions at threshold, we compute the two-loop QCD correction to the short-distance coefficient that governs the leptonic decay $\psi\to l^+ l^-$ of a S-wave quarkonium state and discuss its impact on the relation…
In response to Kim's comment (nucl-th/9903040) on the sum rules for pion-baryon coupling constants obtained in hep-ph/9512259 and hep-ph/9606471, we point out that our treatment of the continuum is consistent with duality and with the fact…
QCD sum rules for positive and negative parity heavy baryons in the heavy quark limit are formulated. We apply the method to $\Lambda$ and $\Sigma$ channels. We include the next-to-leading order corrections in $\alpha_s$-expansion to…
The weak decays of hyperons and hypernuclei are studied from the chiral symmetry viewpoint. The soft pion relations are useful in understanding the isospin properties of the weak hyperon decays. Recent development on the short-range part of…

We deduce momentum sum rules for the parton structure functions of a photon target. Non-perturbative QCD contribution to the momentum sum rules follows from conservation of the energy--momentum tensor and it is calculated through the…
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…
Hyperon decays present a promising alternative for extracting $\vert V_{us} \vert$ from lattice QCD combined with experimental measurements. Currently $\vert V_{us} \vert$ is determined from the kaon decay widths and a lattice calculation…
We use QCD sum rules to obtain the weak parity-violating pion-nucleon coupling constant $f_{\pi NN}$. We find that $f_{\pi NN}\approx 2\times 10^{-8}$, about an order of magnitude smaller than the ``best estimates'' based on quark models.…
In this paper we propose to associate a temporal two-component wave-function to the decay process of meson particles. This simple quantum model provides a good estimation of the CP symmetry violation parameter. This result is based on our…
