abstract
We calculate the form factors for weak decays of $B_{(s)}$ and $D_{(s)}$ mesons to light pseudoscalar and vector mesons. To reveal the intimate connection between different decay modes and to be able to perform the calculations in the full physical $q^2$-region we use a relativistic dispersion approach based on the constituent quark picture. This approach gives the form factors as relativistic double spectral representations in terms of the wave functions of the initial and final mesons. The form factors have the correct analytic properties and satisfy general requirements of nonperturbative QCD in the heavy quark limit. The disadvantages of quark models related to ill-defined effective quark masses and not precisely known meson wave functions are reduced by fitting the quark model parameters to lattice QCD results for the $B\to \rho$ transition form factors at large momentum transfers and to the measured total $D\to (K,K^*)l\nu$ decay rates. This allows us to predict numerous form factors for all kinematically accessible $q^2$ values.

Precision Study of Semileptonic and Non-Leptonic $B_c$ Decays to $\eta_c$ and P Wave Charmonia
Data-constrained NRQCD form factors yield R(χ_c0)=0.185(3), R(χ_c1)=0.147(26), R(h_c)=0.068(2) and related B_c branching fractions for P-wave charmonia.

Probing invisible particles with charm
Rare charm hadron decays offer clean null tests of the standard model that can reach branching ratios up to 10^{-3} for dark photons and 10^{-4} for ALPs in unconstrained parameter spaces.

Weak decays of $B_s$ meson in self-consistent covariant light-front approach
A self-consistent light-front quark model calculation gives B_s to P(V) form factors and decay observables, with semileptonic results consistent with lattice QCD and LHCb but nonleptonic predictions requiring fitted e...

Lepton Flavor Universality tests through angular observables of $\overline{B}\to D^{(\ast)}\ell\overline{\nu}$ decay modes
Angular observables in B→D(*)ℓν decays can distinguish Lorentz structures of new physics contributions fitted to measured R(D(*)) ratios, even when those ratios agree with the Standard Model.

Systematic analysis of $D_{(s)}$ meson semi-leptonic decays in the covariant light-front quark model
CLFQM calculations of D(s) to P/S/V/A form factors and branching ratios agree with data for most P and V channels but show notable discrepancies for several S and A channels.

Analysis of $B\to KM_X$ and $B\to K^* M_X$ decays in scalar- and vector-mediator dark-matter scenarios
Belle-II excess in B to K/K* + missing energy is explained by dark matter fermion pair production via scalar or vector mediator, with discrimination possible through decay rate inspections.
