We have extracted the ratio $|V_{ub}|/|V_{cb}|$ from a combined study of the available inputs on $\bar{B}\to (\pi,\rho,\omega)\ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ and $\bar{B}(\bar{B}_s)\to (D^{(\ast)}, D_s^{(\ast)})\ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ ($\ell =…

We present a search for the decay B^+ --> tau^+ nu using $383 \times 10^{6}}$ BBbar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II B Factory. We select a sample of events with one completely…

We review recent results of the BABAR and BELLE Collaborations on the the alpha and gamma angles of the unitary triangle, on the B to K pi pi Dalitz-plot analyses, and on the searches for baryonic B decays and for B to DD decays.

We revisit QCD sum rules for the decay constants of heavy-light mesons. In the sum rules for the vector mesons B^*_(s) and D^*_(s) we improve the accuracy of OPE, taking into account the O(alpha_s^2) terms in the perturbative part and…

We present a search for the decay B+ -->tau+ nu using 467.8 x 10^6 B B pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector at the SLAC PEP-II B-Factory. We select a sample of events with one completely reconstructed B- in the…

All ALEPH measurements of branching ratios of tau decays involving kaons are summarized including a combination of results obtained with K^0_S and K^0_L detection. The decay dynamics are studied, leading to the determination of…

The recent measurements of the B_s meson mixing amplitude by CDF and of the leptonic branching fraction BR(B to tau nu) by Belle call for an upgraded analysis of the Unitarity Triangle in the Standard Model. Besides improving the previous…

Selected results on hadronic decays of the tau lepton from the TAU98 Workshop are reviewed. A comprehensive picture emerges for strange particle branching fractions, and exploration of resonant substructure of both strange and non-strange…

We have measured branching fractions of hadronic $\tau$ decays involving an $\eta$ meson using 485 fb^{-1} of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider. We obtain the following branching fractions:…

Being a determination at low energies, the analysis of hadronic tau decay data provides a rather precise determination of the strong coupling alpha_s after evolving the result to M_Z. At such a level of precision, even small…

The recent precise measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly (g-2)_{mu} at BNL opens a window into possible new physics, provided the contribution from hadronic vacuum polarization is well understood. This talk summarizes the development in…

We report a measurement of the branching fractions for $B^{0} \rightarrow \pi^- \ell^+\nu$ and $B^{0} \rightarrow \rho^-\ell^+\nu$ decays, using charged and neutral $B$ decays with isospin constraints. We find ${\cal B}(B^{0} \rightarrow…

We present an extended discussion of the previously noted possibility to extract |V_{ub}| from an analysis of the hadronic recoil mass spectrum in B->X_u l nu decays. Invariant mass spectra containing perturbative as well as nonperturbative…

We report on a study of the branching fractions for the exclusive charmless semileptonic B decay modes B to pi+ l nu, B to pi0 l nu, B to rho+ l nu, B to rho0 l nu and B to omega l nu, using events tagged by fully reconstructing one of the…

Puzzled or surprised by the almost incredible accuracy occasionally claimed in the literature to be achievable for numerical outcomes of QCD sum-rule analyses, we scrutinized the usual procedure employed for the extraction of the parameters…

Several different analysis methods have been developed to determine the strong coupling via finite-energy sum-rule analyses of hadronic $\tau$ decay data. While most methods agree on the existence of the well-known ambiguity in the choice…

Taking into account the gluon correction contributions to the correlation function, the form factors relevant to the rare $B_c \rar X \nu\bar{\nu}$ decays are calculated in the framework of the three point QCD sum rules, where $X$ stands…

Double-pinched Borel-Laplace sum rules are applied to ALEPH $\tau$-decay data. For the leading-twist ($D=0$) Adler function a renormalon-motivated extension is used, and the 5-loop coefficient is taken to be $d_4=275 \pm 63$. Two $D=6$…

We study semileptonic sum rules for $b \to c \tau \overline{\nu}$ transitions involving orbitally excited charm hadrons. Starting from the amplitude-level relation implied by the heavy quark symmetry, we construct sum rules relating these…

We calculate the electron spectrum of semileptonic decays of B-mesons into non-charmed hadrons. The shape of the spectrum obtained from QCD sum rules is in general agreement with quark model calculations. At high electron energies the…
