We calculate results for K to pi and K to 0 matrix elements to next-to-leading order in 2+1 flavor partially quenched chiral perturbation theory. Results are presented for both the Delta I=1/2 and 3/2 channels, for chiral operators…
We calculate the next-to-leading order corrections to the $SU(2)\otimes SU(2)$ and $SU(3)\otimes SU(3)$ Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner relations. We use a pseudoscalar correlator calculated from Perturbative QCD up to five loops and use the QCD…
Within the OPE, we the new sum rules in Heavy Quark Effective Theory in the heavy quark limit and at order 1/m_Q, using the non-forward amplitude. In particular, we obtain new sum rules involving the elastic subleading form factors chi_i(w)…
Strong penguin operators are singlets under the right-handed flavor symmetry group SU(3)_R. However, they do not remain singlets when the operator is embedded in (partially) quenched QCD, but instead they become linear combinations of two…
A critical review of hadronic tau decay data based determinations of |V_{us}| is given, focussing on the impact of the slow convergence of the integrated D=2 OPE series for the conventional flavor-breaking sum rule determination and the…
New physics contributions to B decays often arise through chromo-magnetic penguin operators. To look for new physics effects in B decays, it is useful to be able to estimate the hadronic matrix elements for the chromo-magnetic operator. We…
We compute the leading-log QED, the next-to-leading-log QED-QCD, and the electroweak corrections to the charm quark contribution relevant for the rare decay K+ -> pi+ nu nu-bar. The corresponding parameter P_c(X) is increased by up to 2%…
We calculate the penguin form factor for the (B -> eta l^+ l^-) decay. This form factor is calculated in light cone QCD sum rules, including contributions from wave functions up to twist-4, as well as mass corrections of the light (eta)…
The interpretation of results of recent tau decay determinations of |V_us|, which yield values ~3 sigma low compared to 3-family unitarity expectations, is complicated by the slow convergence of the relevant integrated D=2 OPE series. We…
We present results for the $B \rightarrow \pi$ and $D\rightarrow \pi$ form factors derived from QCD sum rules on the light-cone. Our predictions are compared with experiment and used to extract the quark mixing parameter $|V_{ub}|$ from a…
An increasing number of experimental measurements from the BESIII, Belle, and Belle-II collaborations encourage investigations into charmed baryon two-body decay processes. By including contributions from the penguin diagrams that are…
A number of recent determinations of $m_s$ using hadronic $\tau$ decay data involve inclusive analyses based on the so-called $(k,0)$ spectral weights. We show here that the OPE representations of the longitudinal contributions appearing in…
The strange quark mass is determined from a new QCD Finite Energy Sum Rule (FESR) optimized to reduce considerably the systematic uncertainties arising from the hadronic resonance sector. As a result, the main uncertainty in this…
The coupling constants of the order $p^2$ low-energy weak effective lagrangian can be determined from the $K\to\pi$ and $K\to 0$ weak matrix elements, choosing degenerate quark masses for the first of these. However, for typical values of…
Coupling constants of the pseudoscalar mesons to the octet baryons are computed in the QCD sum rule approach. The pi-NN, eta-NN, pi-XiXi, eta-XiXi, pi-SigmaSigma, eta-SigmaSigma as well as pi-Lambda-Sigma couplings are studied. Determining…
Applications of QCD sum rules to exclusive decays of heavy mesons are reviewed. In detail, we discuss the calculations of the B and $D$ decay constants, the heavy-to-light form factors $f^+(p^2)$ and $f^0(p^2)$, and the strong couplings…
The light quark masses are determined using a new QCD Finite Energy Sum Rule (FESR) in the pseudoscalar channel. This FESR involves an integration kernel designed to reduce considerably the contribution of the (unmeasured) hadronic…
A sum rule for determining |V_us| from a combination of hadronic tau decay and electroproduction data is discussed. Indications of problems with analogous, purely tau-decay-based analyses, most likely associated with slow convergence of the…
We calculate the important next-to-leading-order contributions to the B -> pi K, pi pi decays from the vertex corrections, the quark loops, and the magnetic penguins in the perturbative QCD approach. It is found that the latter two reduce…
We study the effects of electroweak penguin (EWP) amplitudes in $B$ meson decays into two charmless pseudoscalars in the approximation of retaining only the dominant EWP operators $Q_9$ and $Q_{10}$. Using flavor SU(3) symmetry, we derive a…
