We use QCD light-cone sum rules to examine the B -> pi pi hadronic matrix element of the current-current operator with c quarks in the penguin topology (``charming penguin) as a potential source of the substantial O(1/m_b) effects. Our results indicate that charming penguins do not generate sizable nonperturbative effects at finite m_b. The same is valid for the penguin contractions of the current-current operators with light quarks. The dominant penguin topology effects are predicted to be O(alpha_s). Still, the nonperturbative effects at finite m_b can accumulate to a visible effect that is illustrated by calculating the CP-asymmetry in the B^0_d -> pi^+ pi^- decay.
We compute perturbative corrections to $B to pi$ form factors from QCD light-cone sum rules with $B$-meson distribution amplitudes. Applying the method of regions we demonstrate factorization of the vacuum-to-$B$-meson correlation function defined wi
We employ the $Btopi$ form factors obtained from QCD light-cone sum rules and calculate the $Bto pi ell u_l$ width ($ell=e,mu$) in units of $1/|V_{ub}|^2$, integrated over the region of accessible momentum transfers, $0leq q^2leq 12.0 ~GeV^2$. Using
We reconsider and update the QCD light-cone sum rules for $Bto pi$ form factors. The gluon radiative corrections to the twist-2 and twist-3 terms in the correlation functions are calculated. The $bar{MS}$ $b$-quark mass is employed, instead of the on
We revisit the calculation of the strong couplings $D^*Dpi$ and $B^*Bpi$ from the QCD light-cone sum rules using the pion light-cone distribution amplitudes. The accuracy of the correlation function, calculated from the operator product expansion nea
We derive new QCD sum rules for $Bto D$ and $Bto D^*$ form factors. The underlying correlation functions are expanded near the light-cone in terms of $B$-meson distribution amplitudes defined in HQET, whereas the $c$-quark mass is kept finite. The le
