Form factors for semileptonic D decays

Abstract

We study the form factors for semileptonic decays of $D$-mesons. That is, we consider the matrix element of the weak left-handed quark current for the transitions $D\to P$ and $D\to V$, where $P$ and $V$ are light pseudoscalar or vector mesons, respectively. Our motivation to perform the present study of these form factors are future calculations of non-leptonic decay amplitudes. We consider the form factors within a class of chiral quark models. Especially, we study how the Large Energy Effective Theory (LEET) limit works for $D$-meson decays. Compared to previous work we also introduce light vector mesons $V=\rho ,K^{\ast },...$ within chiral quark models. In order to determine some of the parameters in our model, we use existing data and results based on some other methods like lattice calculations, light-cone sum rules, and heavy-light chiral perturbation theory. We also obtain some predictions within our framework.
