AbstractThe ladder kernel of the Bethe–Salpeter equation is amended by introducing a different flavor dependence of the dressing functions in the heavy-quark sector. Compared with earlier work this allows for the simultaneous calculation of the mass spectrum and leptonic decay constants of light pseudoscalar mesons, the $$D_u$$ D u , $$D_s$$ D s , $$B_u$$ B u , $$B_s$$ B s and $$B_c$$ B c mesons and the heavy quarkonia $$\eta _c$$ η c and $$\eta _b$$ η b within the same framework at a physical pion mass. The corresponding Bethe–Salpeter amplitudes are projected onto the light front and we reconstruct the distribution amplitudes of the mesons in the full theory. A comparison with the first inverse moment of the heavy meson distribution amplitude in heavy quark effective theory is made.

We study the weak-decay constants for the heavy pseudoscalar mesons, D, Ds, B and Bs. For this purpose, we employ the extended nonlocal chiral-quark model (ExNLChQM), motivated by the heavy-quark effective field theory as well as the instanton-vacuum configuration. In addition to the heavy-quark symmetry and the nonlocal interactions between quarks and pseudoscalar mesons in ExNLChQM, a correction for the strange-quark content inside Ds and Bs is also taken into account and found to be crucial to reproduce the empirical values. From those numerical results, we obtain fD, Ds, B, Bs = (207.53, 262.56, 208.13, 262.39) MeV , which are in good agreement with experimental data and other theoretical estimations. Using those numerical results, we estimate the CKM matrix elements and the Cabibbo angle with the various mesonic and leptonic heavy-meson decay channels, resulting in (|Vcd|, |Vcs|, |Vub|, |Vtd|/|Vts|) = (0.224, 0.968, <5.395×10-3, 0.215) and θC = 12.36° which are well compatible with available data.

We summarize the first results for masses and decay constants of bottom-strange (pseudo-scalar and vector) mesons from nonperturbatively renormalized heavy-quark effective theory (HQET), using lattice-QCD simulations in the quenched approximation.

Using heavy quark effective theory a factorized form for inclusive production rate of a heavy meson can be obtained, in which the nonperturbative effect related to the heavy meson can be characterized by matrix elements defined in the heavy quark effective theory. Using this factorization, predictions for the full spin density matrix of a spin-1 and spin-2 meson can be obtained and they are characterized only by one coefficient representing the nonperturbative effect. Predictions for spin-1 heavy meson are compared with experiment performed at e+e- colliders in the energy range from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text], a complete agreement is found for D*- and B*-meson. There are distinct differences from the existing approach and they are discussed.

The light front heavy quark effective theory is derived to all orders in 1/mQ. In the limit mQ→∞, the theory exhibits the familiar heavy quark spin-flavor symmetry. This new formalism permits a straightforward canonical quantization to all orders in 1/mQ; moreover, higher order terms have rather simple operator structures. The light front heavy quark effective theory can serve as a useful framework for the study of nonperturbative QCD dynamics of heavy hadron bound states.
