Semileptonic Meson Decays Into A Highly Excited Charmed Meson Doublet
arXiv:0906.5046 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.79.117501
Abstract
We study the heavy quark effective theory prediction for semileptonic decays into an orbital excited -wave charmed doublet, the (, ) states (, ), at the leading order of heavy quark expansion. The corresponding universal form factor is estimated by using the QCD sum rule method. The decay rates we predict are and . The branching ratios are and , respectively.
