We employ the framework of Bethe–Salpeter equation under Covariant Instantaneous Ansatz to study the leptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons. The Dirac structure of hadron-quark vertex function Γ is generalized to include various Dirac covariants besides γ5 from their complete set. The covariants are incorporated in accordance with a power counting rule, order-by-order in powers of the inverse of the meson mass. The decay constants are calculated with the incorporation of leading order covariants. Most of the results are dramatically improved.

Two photon decays of pion are studied in the framework of the Bethe–Salpeter equation under Covariant Instantaneous Ansatz where the structure of hadron-quark vertex function Γ is generalized to include various Dirac covariants (other than γ5) from their complete set. These covariants are incorporated in accordance with a power counting rule (which was recently employed to calculate leptonic decays constants of pseudoscalar mesons and vector mesons) order by order in powers of the inverse of the meson mass. Pion-photon coupling constant Fπ is calculated with the incorporation of leading order covariants.

We have employed the framework of Bethe–Salpeter equation under covariant instantaneous ansatz to calculate leptonic decay constants of unequal mass pseudoscalar mesons like π±, K, D, DS and B, and radiative decay constants of neutral pseudoscalar mesons like π0 and ηc into two photons. In the Dirac structure of hadronic Bethe–Salpeter wave function, the covariants are incorporated from their complete set in accordance with a recently proposed power counting rule. The contribution of both leading order and next-to-leading order Dirac covariants to decay constants are studied. The results are found to improve and hence validating the power counting rule which provides a practical means of incorporating Dirac covariants in the Bethe–Salpeter wave function for a hadron.

Weak leptonic decays of light and heavy pseudoscalar mesons are studied in a field-theoretic quark model where the mesons are described by constituent quarks and antiquarks with a particular ansatz and a Harmonic oscillator wave function. With constituent quark masses and Harmonic oscillator radii for mesons as parameters of the model, decay constants are calculated and found as (fπ, fk, fD, fB) = (132 MeV , 161 MeV , 160 MeV , 115 MeV ) indicating a reasonable agreement with the experimental data wherever available. Partial decay widths and branching ratios for kinematically allowed leptonic decay processes are also estimated and compared with the experiments wherever available.

Abstract The on-shell matrix elements, or couplings $$ {g}_{H{H}^{\ast}\left({H}_1\right)\upgamma} $$ g H H ∗ H 1 γ , describing the $$ B{(D)}_q^{\ast } $$ B D q ∗ → B(D)qγ and B1q → Bqγ (q = u, d, s) radiative decays, are determined from light-cone sum rules at next-to-leading order for the first time. Two different interpolating operators are used for the vector meson, providing additional robustness to our results. For the D*-meson, where some rates are experimentally known, agreement is found. The couplings are of additional interest as they govern the lowest pole residue in the B(D) → γ form factors which in turn are connected to QED-corrections in leptonic decays B(D) → ℓ$$ \overline{\nu} $$ ν ¯ . Since the couplings and residues are related by the decay constants $$ {f}_{H^{\ast}\left({H}_1\right)} $$ f H ∗ H 1 and $$ {f}_{H^{\ast}\left({H}_1\right)}^T $$ f H ∗ H 1 T , we determine them at next-leading order as a by-product. The quantities $$ \left\{{f}_{H^{\ast}}^T,{f}_{H_1}^T\right\} $$ f H ∗ T f H 1 T have not previously been subjected to a QCD sum rule determination. All results are compared with the existing experimental and theoretical literature.

We have studied phenomenological implication of R-parity violating (Rp) Minimal Supersymmetric Model (MSSM) via analyses of pure leptonic (M→νν¯) and semileptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons (M→Xνν¯). These analyses involve comparison between theoretical predictions made by Rp MSSM and the Standard Model (SM) with the experimental results like branching fractions (Br) of the said process. We have found, in general, that Rp contribution dominates over the SM contribution, i.e., by a factor of 10 for the pure leptonic decays of KL,S and by 102 and 104 in case of Bs and Bd, respectively. Furthermore, the limits obtained on Rp Yukawa couplings (λαkβ′λαkγ′⁎) by using Br  (M→Xνν¯) are used to calculate Br  (M→νν¯). This demonstrates the role of Rp MSSM as a viable model for the study of new physics contribution in rare decays at places like Super B factories, KOTO (J-PARC) and NA62 at CERN.

Making use of the geometric formulation of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory we calculate the one-loop tadpole diagrams to all orders in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory power counting. This work represents the first calculation of a one-loop amplitude beyond leading order in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory, and discusses the potential to extend this methodology to perform similar calculations of observables in the near future.

The status of lattice calculations of heavy-light decay constants and of the B parameter BB is reviewed. After describing the lattice approach to heavy quark systems, the main results are discussed, with special emphasis on the systematic errors in present lattice calculations. A detailed analysis of the continuum limit for decay constants is performed. The implications of lattice results on studies of CP violation in the Standard Model are discussed.

In this paper, we study the mass spectrum and decay constants of ground state (1S) and radially excited states (2S and 3S) of heavy equal mass pseudoscalar mesons, ηc and ηb. We have employed the framework of Bethe–Salpeter equation (BSE) under Covariant Instantaneous Ansatz (CIA). Our predictions are in reasonable agreement with the data on available states and results of other models.
