Isgur–Wise function and a new approach to potential model

Abstract

Considering the Cornell potential [Formula: see text], we have revisited the Dalgarno’s method of perturbation by incorporating two scales [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] as integration limit so that the perturbative procedure can be improved in a potential model. With the improved version of the wave function the ground state masses of the heavy–light mesons [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are computed. The slopes and curvatures of the form factors of semileptonic decays of heavy–light mesons in both HQET limit and finite mass limit are calculated and compared with the available data.
