Unitary Structure of the QCD Sum Rules and KYN and KY\Xi Couplings

New relations between QCD Borel sum rules for strong coupling constants of K-mesons to baryons are derived. It is shown that starting from the sum rule for the coupling constants $g_{\pi\Sigma\Sigma}$ and $g_{\pi\Sigma\Lambda}$ it is straightforward to obtain corresponding sum rules for the $g_{K Y N}$, $g_{K Y \Xi}$ couplings, $Y=\Sigma,\Lambda$.Comment: 7 pages, 2 tables, International Workshop on Quantum Chromodynamics:Theory and Experiment, QCD@Work-2005, Coversano(Bari, Italy), 16-20 June, 200

Vector meson dominance and radiative decays of heavy spin-3/2 baryons to heavy spin--1/2 baryons

Using the calculated values of the strong coupling constants of the heavy sextet spin-3/2 baryons to sextet and antitriplet heavy spin-1/2 baryons with light mesons within the light cone QCD sum rules method, and vector meson dominance assumption, the radiative decay widths are calculated. These widths are compared with the "direct" radiative decay widths predicted in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules.Comment: 8 pages, no figures, LaTeX formatte

Light vector meson octet-decuplet baryon vertices in QCD

The strong coupling constants between light vector mesons and octet-decuplet baryons are calculated in framework of the light cone QCD sum rules, taking into account SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking effects. It is shown that all strong coupling constants can be represented in terms of a single universal function. Size of the SU(3) symmetry breaking effects are estimated.Comment: 27 pages, 6 figures, LaTeX formatte
