abstract
We present the predictions of ISGW2, an update of the ISGW quark model for semileptonic meson decays. The updated model incorporates a number of features which should make it more reliable, including the constraints imposed by Heavy Quark Symmetry, hyperfine distortions of wavefunctions, and form factors with more realistic high recoil behaviors.

Hammer v2 updates the helicity amplitude reweighting library with near-linear scaling for high-dimensional tensor operations in BSM and form-factor spaces plus improved Python bindings.
Semileptonic B to axial-vector meson decays are studied as functions of the mixing angle θ_D1 using covariant light-front quark model form factors, producing predictions for branching ratios, forward-backward asymmetry, polarization, and lepton-flavor ratios.
