We perform a combined study of the two hadronic decays $D^+\to K^-π^+π^+$ and $D_s^+\to K^+K^+π^-$ using a detailed analysis of the semileptonic decays $D^+\to K^-π^+ \ell^+ν_\ell$ ($\ell=e, μ$) thanks to the high-statistics dataset provided by the BESIII Collaboration. We propose simple and suitable amplitude parametrizations of the studied reactions that shall be of interest to experimentalists for upcoming analyses. These new parametrizations are based on the naïve factorization hypothesis and the description of the resulting matrix elements in terms of well-known hadronic form factors, with special emphasis on the $Kπ$ scalar and vector cases. Such form factors account for two-body final state interactions which fulfill analyticity, unitarity and chiral symmetry constraints. As a result of our study, we find that the $P$-wave contribution fits nicely within the naïve-factorization approach, whereas the $S$-wave contribution requires complex Wilson coefficients that hint for possibly genuine three-body non-factorizable effects. Our hypothesis is further supported by the examination of $D_s^+\to K^+K^+π^-$ decays, where we achieve a description in overall good agreement with data.
Semileptonic decay processes of $Ξ_c \to Ξ\ellν_\ell$ are studied by light-cone QCD sum rules in this paper. The six form factors of $Ξ_c \to Ξ$ semileptonic transition matrix elements are calculated by this method with the light-cone distribution amplitudes of $Ξ$ baryon up to twist six. With the six form factors, the absolute branching ratios of $Ξ_c^0 \to Ξ^- \ell^+ ν_\ell$ and $Ξ_c^+ \to Ξ^0 \ell^+ ν_\ell$ are calculated by the helicity amplitudes formalism of semileptonic differential decay widths. The ratios of absolute branching ratios of electron and muon final states processes give th…
Three-body semileptonic $τ$-decays offer a path to understand the properties of light hadronic systems and CP symmetry violations through searches for electric dipole moments. In studies of electro-weak physics, the hadronic part of the final states has traditionally been described using the language of form factors. Spectroscopic information, resolved in terms of orbital angular momentum quantum-numbers, is best being derived from an explicit decomposition of the hadronic current in the orbital angular momentum basis. Motivated by the upcoming large data samples from B factories, we present t…
BELLE has recently reported the measurement of the branching fraction of the semileptonic $B^{-}\toπ^{+}π^{-}\ell^{-}\barν_\ell$ decay, where $\ell$ represents an electron or a muon. With the new information on the $ππ$ invariant mass spectrum, we extract $|V_{ub}|=(3.31\pm 0.61)\times 10^{-3}$ in agreement with those from the other exclusive $B$ decays. In particular, we determine the non-resonant $B\toππ$ transition form factors, and predict the non-resonant branching fraction ${\cal B}(B^{-}\toπ^{+}π^{-}\ell^{-}\barν_\ell)=(3.5\pm 1.4^{+4.3}_{-2.4})\times 10^{-5}$, which is accessible to th…
In the semileptonic decays of heavy mesons and baryons the lepton-mass dependence factors out in the quadratic $\cos^2θ$ coefficient of the differential $\cosθ$ distribution. We call the corresponding normalized coefficient the convexity parameter. This observation opens the path to a test of lepton universality in semileptonic heavy meson and baryon decays that is independent of form-factor effects. By projecting out the quadratic rate coefficient, dividing out the lepton-mass-dependent factor and restricting the phase space integration to the $τ$ lepton phase space, one can define optimized …
Based on the mechanism of neutral meson mixing, we predict the branching fraction of the semileptonic decay of $D_s^+\to π^0 \ell^+ ν_\ell$ ($\ell=e$, $μ$) using recently measured branching fraction of $D_s^+\to ηe^+ν_e$ by BESIII experiment . We also give a formula that can describe the neutral meson mixing of $π^0$, $η$, $η'$ and a pseudoscalar gluonium $G$ in a unified way. The predicted branching fraction of $D_s^+\toπ^0 e^+ν_e$ decay is $\mathcal{B}(D_s^+\toπ^0 e^+ν_e)=(2.65\pm 0.38)\times 10^{-5}$. It is important to search for the decay $D_s^+\to π^0 \ell^+ ν_\ell$ in experiment, in ord…
Semileptonic decays of the $Ξ_b$ baryon are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark-diquark model based on the quasipotential approach. The weak decay form factors are calculated with the comprehensive account of all relativistic effects without employing nonrelativistic and heavy quark expansions. On this basis differential and total decay rates as well as different asymmetry parameters are calculated for the heavy-to-heavy $Ξ_b\to Ξ_c\ellν_\ell$ and heavy-to-light $Ξ_b\to Λ\ellν_\ell$ semileptonic decays. Predictions for the ratios of such decays involving $τ$ lepton and muon are …
We perform a global analysis of exclusive hadronic tau decays into one and two mesons using the low-energy limit of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory up to dimension six, assuming left-handed neutrinos. A controlled theoretical input on the Standard Model hadronic form factors, based on chiral symmetry, dispersion relations, data and asymptotic QCD properties, has allowed us to set bounds on the New Physics effective couplings using the present experimental data. Our results highlight the importance of semileptonic $τ$ decays in complementing the traditional low-energy probes, such nuc…
In this work, we analyze the semileptonic decay processes of $Λ_b \to Λ_c$ in the light-cone sum rule approach. In order to calculate the form factors of the $Λ_b$ baryon transition matrix element, we use the light-cone distribution amplitudes of $Λ_b$ obtained from the QCD sum rule in the heavy quark effective field theory framework. With the calculation of the six form factors of the $Λ_b \to Λ_c$ transition matrix element, the differential decay widths of $Λ_b^0 \to Λ_c^+ \ell^- \overlineν_\ell (\ell = e, ~μ, ~τ)$ and their absolute branching fractions are obtained. Additionally, the ratio …
We consider leptonic $B^-\to \ell^- \barν_\ell$ and semileptonic $\bar B \to π\ell^- \barν_\ell$, $\bar B \to ρ\ell^- \barν_\ell$ decays and present a strategy to determine short-distance coefficients of New-Physics operators and the CKM element $|V_{ub}|$. As the leptonic channels play a central role, we illustrate this method for (pseudo)-scalar operators which may lift the helicity suppression of the corresponding transition amplitudes arising in the Standard Model. Utilising a new result by the Belle collaboration for the branching ratio of $B^-\to μ^- \barν_μ$, we explore theoretically cl…
The form factors of the weak $Ξ_c\to Ξ(Λ)$ transitions are calculated in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach. All relativistic effects including transformations of the baryon wave functions from the rest to moving reference frame and contributions of the intermediate negative energy states are systematically taken into account. The explicit analytic expressions which reliably approximate the momentum transfer $q^2$ dependence of the form factors in the whole accessible kinematical range are given. The calculated form factors are applied for the ev…
We systematically revisit the baryonic four-body semileptonic decays of $B^- \to {\bf B}\bar{\bf B}'\ell^- \barν_{\ell}$ by the perturbative QCD counting rules with ${\bf B}$ representing octet baryons and $\ell=e,μ$. We study the transition form factors of $B^- \to {\bf B} \bar{\bf B}'$ in the limit of $(p_{\bf B}+p_{\bar{\bf B}'})^2 \to \infty $ with the three-body $\bar{B}\to {\bf B}\bar{\bf B}' M$ and $B^- \to p\bar{p} μ^- \barν_μ$ data along with $SU(3)_f$ flavor symmetry. We calculate the decay branching ratios and angular asymmetries as well as the differential decay branching fractions…

The tree-level $b\rightarrow c{\ell}\barν_{\ell}$ based hadronic transitions have been on the focus of much attention since recording significant deviations of the experimental data, on the ratios of the branching fractions in $ τ$ and $ e-μ$ channels of the semileptonic $ B \rightarrow D $ transition, from the SM predictions by BaBar Collaboration in 2012. It can be of great importance to look whether similar discrepancies take place in the semileptonic baryonic $Λ_{b}\rightarrow Λ_{c}{\ell}\barν_{\ell}$ decay channel or not. In this accordance we estimate the decay width as well as the ratio…

In terms of ${\cal P}_{c1,c2}={\cal P}_c(4380,4450)^+$ as the hidden charm pentaquark states to consist of $c\bar c uud$, we study the semileptonic $Λ_b\to ({\cal P}_{c1,c2}\to)J/ψp \ell^-\bar ν_\ell$ decays. In our discussion, while the main contribution to $Λ_b\to K^-J/ψp$ is from the non-perturbative process via the doubly charmful $b\to c\bar cs$ transition, we propose that the $Λ_b\to {\cal P}_{c1,c2}\to J/ψp$ transitions are partly contribute to the $Λ_b\to K^-({\cal P}_{c1,c2}\to)J/ψp$ decays, in which the required $c\bar c$ pair is formed by the sea quarks, intrinsic charm, or both. We…
We review a novel model-independent approach to the analysis of new-physics effects in the $s\to u\ell^-\barν$ transitions. We apply it to (semi)leptonic kaon decays and study their complementarity with pion and hyperon $β$ decays or with collider searches of new physics.
Semileptonic $Λ_b$ decays are investigated in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach and the quark-diquark picture of baryons. The decay form factors are expressed through the overlap integrals of the initial and final baryon wave functions. All calculations are done without employing nonrelativistic and heavy quark expansions. The momentum transfer dependence of the decay form factors is explicitly determined in the whole accessible kinematical range without any extrapolations or model assumptions. Both the heavy-to-heavy $Λ_b\toΛ_c\ellν_\ell$ and h…
We calculated the form factors of $B_{c}$ transitions into $η^{(')}$ meson and pseudoscalar Glueball, where the $B_{c}$ meson is a bound state of two different heavy flavors and is treated as a nonrelativistic state, while the mesons $η^{(')}$ and Glueball are treated as light-cone objects since their masses are smaller enough compared to the transition momentum scale. The mechanism of two gluon scattering into $η^{(')}$ dominated the form factors of $B_{c}$ decays into $η^{(')}$. We considered the $η-η'-$Glueball mixing effect, and then obtained their influences on the form factors. The form …
The form factors of semileptonic $B_{(s)}\to a_{1}(K_1)\, \ell^{+}\ell^{-}$, $ \ell=τ,μ,e$ transitions are investigated in the framework of the light-cone sum rules with $B$-meson distribution amplitudes, which play an important role in exclusive $B$ decays. The $B$-meson distribution amplitudes, $φ_{\pm}(ω)$ are a model-dependent form, so we consider four different parameterizations which can provide a reasonable description of $φ_{\pm}(ω)$ from QCD corrections. The branching fractions of these transitions are calculated. For a better analysis, a comparison of our results with the prediction …
We extend our general framework for semileptonic decay, originally introduced in N. Penalva et al. [Phys. Rev. D100, 113007 (2019)], with the addition of new physics (NP) tensor terms. In this way, all the NP effective Hamiltonians that are considered in lepton flavour universality violation (LFUV) studies have now been included. Besides, we now also give general expressions that allow for complex Wilson coefficients. The scheme developed is totally general and it can be applied to any charged current semileptonic decay, involving any quark flavors or initial and final hadron states. We show t…

We consider the form factors for the radiative semileptonic decays $\bar{B}(v) \rightarrow D^{(*)}(v') \ell {\bar ν}_\ell γ$ in the kinematic region where the photon momentum, $k$, is small enough that heavy quark symmetry (HQS) can be applied without the radiated photon changing the heavy quark velocity (i.e., $v^{(\prime)} \cdot k < m_{(b,c)}$). We find that HQS is remarkably powerful, leaving only four new undetermined form factors at leading order in $1/m_{(b,c)}$. In addition, one of them is fixed in terms of the leading order Isgur-Wise function in the kinematic region, $v^{(\prime)}\cdo…
We consider the Drell-Yan processes $pp \to \ell \ell^{(\prime)}$ and $pp\to \ell \barν$ at high-$p_T$ as probes of New Physics effects in semileptonic transitions. For this purpose, we describe the $2\to2$ scattering amplitudes in terms of general form-factors which we match to the SMEFT at $\mathcal{O}(1/Λ^{4})$ including corrections from dimension-$8$ operators and to tree-level mediators with $\mathcal{O}$(TeV) masses arising from ultraviolet models. By using the latest LHC run-II data from monolepton and dilepton production channels, we derive constraints on the SMEFT and on leptoquark mo…
Inclusive semileptonic decays of beauty baryons are studied using the heavy quark expansion to ${\cal O}(1/m_b^3)$, at leading order in $α_s$. The case of a polarized decaying baryon is examined, with reference to $Λ_b$. An extension of the Standard Model effective Hamiltonian inducing $b \to U \ell {\bar ν}_ \ell$ transitions ($U=u,\,c$ and $\ell=e,\,μ,\,τ$) is considered, which comprises the full set of D=6 semileptonic operators with left-handed neutrinos. The effects of the new operators in several observables are described.
