Non-perturbative effects in semi-leptonic B_c decays
We discuss the impact of the soft degrees of freedom inside the B_c meson on
its rate in the semi-leptonic decay B_c -> X l nu_l where X denotes light
hadrons below the D^0 threshold. In particular we identify contributions
involving soft hadrons which are non-vanishing in the limit of massless
leptons. These contributions become relevant for a measurement of the purely
leptonic B_c decay rate, which due to helicity suppression involves a factor
m_l^2 and thus is much smaller than the contributions involving soft hadrons.Comment: LaTeX, 22 pages, 1 figur
Two body non-leptonic decays in quark model with factorization ansatz
The two body non-leptonic decays are analyzed in factorization
approximation, using quark model, as a free parameter. It is
shown that the experimental branching ratio for restricts and this ratio can be understood for a value
of which lies in the range suggested by two body
B meson decays. The branching ratios for are predicted to be larger than the previous estimates. Finally it
is pointed that CKM-Wolfenstein parameter , where is CP
phase, can be determined from the ratio of widths of and or that of
and
independent of the parameter .Comment: 18 pages, latex, 1 figure available on request, please send any

Renormalizabilty of TH Heavy Quark Effective Theory
We show that the Heavy Quark Effective Theory is renormalizable
perturbatively. We also show that there exist renormalization schemes in which
the infinite quark mass limit of any QCD Green function is exactly given by the
corresponding Green function of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory. All this is
accomplished while preserving BRS invariance.Comment: LATEX/10 pages/ UAB-FT-314/ (References have been added.) figures

Higher Order Corrections at Zero Recoil
The general structure of the corrections at zero recoil is studied. The
relevant matrix elements are forward matrix elements of local higher
dimensional operators and their time ordered products with higher order terms
from the Lagrangian. These matrix elements may be classified in a simple way
and the analysis at the non recoil point for the form factor of heavy quark
currents simplifies drastically. The second order recoil corrections to the
form factor of the axial vector current, relevant for the
determination from decays, are estimated to be .Comment: LaTeX, 25 pages, one figure, appended after \end{document} as

Loop-Less Electric Dipole Moment of the Nucleon in the Standard Model
We point out that the electric dipole moment of the neutron in the Standard
Model is generated already at tree level to the second order in the weak
interactions due to bound-state effects, without short-distance Penguin loops.
The related contribution has a regular nonvanishing chiral limit and does not
depend on the mass splitting between s and d quarks. We estimate it to be
roughly 10^(-31)e*cm and expect a more accurate evaluation in the future. We
comment on the connection between d_n and the direct CP-violation in D decays.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure
QCD-based description of one-particle inclusive B decays
We discuss one-particle inclusive B decays in the limit of heavy b and c
quarks. Using the large-N_C limit we factorize the non-leptonic matrix
elements, and we employ a short distance expansion. Modeling the remaining
nonperturbative matrix elements we obtain predictions for various decay
channels and compare them with existing data.Comment: LaTeX, 22 pages, 6 figures (eps); analytical and numerical results

A heavy quark effective field lagrangian keeping particle and antiparticle mixed sectors
We derive a tree-level heavy quark effective Lagrangian keeping
particle-antiparticle mixed sectors allowing for heavy quark-antiquark pair
annihilation and creation. However, when removing the unwanted degrees of
freedom from the effective Lagrangian one has to be careful in using the
classical equations of motion obeyed by the effective fields in order to get a
convergent expansion on the reciprocal of the heavy quark mass. Then the
application of the effective theory to such hard processes should be sensible
for special kinematic regimes as for example heavy quark pair production near
threshold.Comment: LaTeX, 14 pages, 1 EPS figure
Large Universality of The Baryon Isgur--Wise Form Factor: The Group Theoretical Approach
In a previous article, it has been proved under the framework of chiral
soliton model that the same Isgur--Wise form factor describes the semileptonic
and decays in the
large limit. It is shown here that this result is in fact independent of
the chiral soliton model and is solely the consequence of the spin-flavor SU(4)
symmetry which arises in the baryon sector in the large limit.Comment: 10 pages in REVTeX, no figure
Model independent determination of the shape function for inclusive B decays and of the structure functions in DIS
We present a method to compute, by numerical simulations of lattice QCD, the
inclusive semileptonic differential decay rates of heavy hadrons and the
structure functions which occur in deep inelastic scattering. The method is
based on first principles and does not require any model assumption. It allows
the prediction of the differential rate in B semileptonic decays for values of
the recoiling hadronic mass W ~ sqrt(M_B Lambda_QCD), which is in the relevant
region to extract |V_ub| from the end-point of the lepton spectrum in inclusive
decays.Comment: 16 pages, LaTeX fil
