On the basis of such a lagrangian, by considering the allowed weak currents and by including the contributions from the nearest unitarity poles we calculate the form factors for semileptonic decays of $B$ and $D$ mesons into light pseudoscalars and light vector resonances. The available data, together with some additional assumptions, allow for a set of predictions in the different semileptonic channels, which can be compared with those following {}from different approaches. A discussion of non-dominant terms in our approach, which attempts at including a rather complete dynamics, will however have to wait till more abundant data become available.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "1992-11-17T12:40:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "semileptonic decays", "effective lagrangian", "light vector resonances", "light mesons", "parity heavy mesons containing" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 19, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 340716 } } }
