We apply the method of QCD sum rules in the presence of external electromagnetic fields $F_{mu u}$ to the problem of the electromagnetic decays of various vector mesons, such as $rhotopigamma$, $K^astto Kgamma$ and $etatorhogamma$. The induced condensates obtained previously from the study of baryon magnetic moments are adopted, thereby ensuring the parameter-free nature of the present calculation. Further consistency is reinforced by invoking various QCD sum rules for the meson masses. The numerical results on the various radiative decays agree very well with the experimental data.

We study $bar qq$-hybrid mixing for the light vector mesons and $bar qq$-glueball mixing for the light scalar mesons in Monte-Carlo based QCD Laplace sum rules. By calculating the two-point correlation function of a vector $bar qgamma_mu q$ (scalar $bar q q$) current and a hybrid (glueball) current we are able to estimate the mass and the decay constants of the corresponding mixed physical state that couples to both currents. Our results do not support strong quark/gluonic mixing for either the $1^{--}$ or the $0^{++}$ states.
A symmetry-preserving approach to the two valence-body continuum bound-state problem is used to calculate the elastic electromagnetic form factors of the $rho$-meson and subsequently to study the evolution of vector-meson form factors with current-quark mass. To facilitate a range of additional comparisons, $K^ast$ form factors are also computed. The analysis reveals that: vector mesons are larger than pseudoscalar mesons; composite vector mesons are non-spherical, with magnetic and quadrupole moments that deviate $sim 30$% from point-particle values; in many ways, vector-meson properties are as much influenced by emergent mass as those of pseudoscalars; and vector meson electric form factors possess a zero at spacelike momentum transfer. Qualitative similarities between the electric form factors of the $rho$ and the proton, $G_E^p$, are used to argue that the character of emergent mass in the Standard Model can force a zero in $G_E^p$. Morover, the existence of a zero in vector meson electric form factors entails that a single-pole vector meson dominance model can only be of limited use in estimating properties of off-shell vector mesons, providing poor guidance for systems in which the Higgs-mechanism of mass generation is dominant.
The transition form factors of the radiative decays of the heavy tensor mesons to heavy pseudoscalar and heavy vector mesons are calculated in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules method at the point $Q^2=0$. Using the obtained values of the transition form factors at the point $Q^2=0$ the corresponding decay widths are estimated. The results show that the radiative decays of the heavy--light tensor mesons can be measurable in the future planned experiments at LHCb.
In the framework of three-point QCD sum rules, the form factors for the semileptonic decays of B_c^+ -> B_s(B_s^*) l u are calculated with account for the Coulomb-like alpha_s/v-corrections in the heavy quarkonium. The generalized relations due to the spin symmetry of HQET/NRQCD for the form factors are derived at the recoil momentum close to zero. The nonleptonic decays are studied using the assumption on the factorization. The B_c meson lifetime is estimated by summing up the dominating exclusive modes in the c -> s transition combining the current calculations with the previous analysis of b -> c decays in the sum rules of QCD and NRQCD.
The external-field QCD Sum Rules method is used to evaluate the coupling constants of the light-isoscalar scalar meson (``sigma or epsilon) to the Lambda, Sigma, and Xi baryons. It is shown that these coupling constants as calculated from QCD Sum Rules are consistent with SU(3)-flavor relations, which leads to a determination of the F/(F+D) ratio of the scalar octet assuming ideal mixing: we find alpha_s equiv F/(F+D)=0.55. The coupling constants with SU(3) breaking effects are also discussed.
