Production, Decay, and Polarization of Excited Heavy Hadrons

Adam F. Falk, Michael E. Peskin

We discuss the production via fragmentation of excited heavy mesons and baryons, and their subsequent decay. In particular, we consider the question of whether a net polarization o…

Another Source of Baryons in $B$ Meson Decays

Isard Dunietz, Peter S. Cooper, Adam F. Falk +1

It is usually assumed that the production of baryons in $B$ meson decays is induced primarily by the quark level process $b \to c u ˉ d$ , where the charm quark hadronizes into a ch…

Phenomenology of the $1/ m_{Q}$ Expansion in Inclusive $B$ and $D$ Meson Decays

Adam F. Falk, Michael Luke, Martin J. Savage

We apply a recent theoretical analysis of hadronic observables in inclusive semileptonic heavy hadron decays to the phenomenology of $B$ and $D$ mesons. Correlated bounds on the no…

The Theory of Heavy Baryons

Adam F. Falk

I discuss the theory of heavy baryon spectroscopy, emphasizing predictions which follow from light and heavy quark symmetries.

Hybrid Charmonium Production in B Decays

George Chiladze, Adam F. Falk, Alexey A. Petrov

We study the production of charmonium hybrids in B decays. We use the operator product expansion and nonrelativistic QCD to organize the various contributions to this process. We e…

Resumming Phase Space Logarithms in Inclusive Semileptonic $B$ Decays

Christian Bauer, Adam F. Falk, Michael Luke

We study logarithms of the form $ln (m_{q} / m_{b})$ which arise in the inclusive semileptonic decay of a bottom quark to a quark of mass $m_{q}$ . We use the renormalization group to resum…
