NLO QCD corrections to off-shell top–antitop production with semi-leptonic decays at lepton colliders [PDF]
The study of top-quark properties will be a central aspect of the physics programme of any future lepton collider. In this article, we investigate the production of top-quark pairs in the semi-leptonic decay channel in $${\textrm{e}}^{+}\textrm{e ...

Inclusive semi-leptonic decays of charmed mesons with Möbius domain wall fermions [PDF]
We perform a non-perturbative lattice calculation of the decay rates for inclusive semi-leptonic decays of charmed mesons. In view of the long-standing tension in the determination of the CKM matrix elements | 𝑉 𝑢𝑏 | and | 𝑉 𝑐𝑏 | from exclusive and ...

Alternative treatment of the quark mass in the heavy quark expansion
The treatment of the quark mass plays an important role when it comes to increasing the precision of the predictions of the heavy quark expansion for inclusive heavy hadron decays.

First extraction of inclusive V cb from q 2 moments
We present the first determination of V cb from inclusive B → X c ℓ v ¯ ℓ $$ B\to {X}_c \ell {\overline{v}}_{\ell} $$ using moments of the dilepton invariant mass, q 2.

Study of the b → dℓℓ transitions in the Standard Model and test of New Physics sensitivities
After incorporating all the available experimental data and the most up-to-date Lattice and light cone sum rule (LCSR) inputs on the form factors, we analyze the exclusive b → uℓν ℓ and b → dℓℓ decays simultaneously.

We present the first application of QCD light-cone sum rules (LCSRs) with B (s)-meson distribution amplitudes to the B s → D s 0 ∗ $$ {B}_{(s)}\to {D}_{(s)0}^{\ast } $$ form factors, where D s 0 ∗ $$ {D}_{(s)0}^{\ast } $$ is a charmed scalar meson.

We perform the first calculation of form factors in the semileptonic decays B → D 1(2420)ℓν ℓ and B → D 1 ′ $$ {D}_1^{\prime } $$ (2430)ℓν ℓ using QCD light-cone sum rules (LCSRs) with B-meson distribution amplitudes. In this calculation the c-quark mass

Revisiting inclusive decay widths of charmed mesons
Determining for the first time the Darwin operator contribution for the non-leptonic charm-quark decays and using new non-perturbative results for the matrix elements of ∆C = 0 four-quark operators, including eye-contractions, we present a comprehensive ...

Quark-hadron duality at work: lifetimes of bottom baryons
In the 1990s, very low experimental values for the lifetime ratio τ(Λ b )/τ(B d ) triggered a considerable amount of doubt in the applicability of the heavy quark expansion (HQE), which is based on the assumption of quark-hadron duality (QHD) for ...
