$D^{*}D ρ$ vertex from QCD sum rules

arXiv:1003.2604 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2011.01.001

Abstract

We calculate the form factors and the coupling constant in the $D^{*}D ρ$ vertex in the framework of QCD sum rules. We evaluate the three point correlation functions of the vertex considering both $ D $ and $ ρ$ mesons off--shell. The form factors obtained are very different but give the same coupling constant: $g_{D^{*}D ρ} = 4.1 \pm 0.1$ GeV$^{-1}$.
