Over the last few years a theoretical treatment for the weak decays of heavy-flavour hadrons has been developed that is genuinely based on QCD. Its methodology is described as it applies to total lifetimes, and the underlying theoretical issues are discussed. Theoretical expectations are compared with present data. One discrepancy emerges: the beauty baryon lifetime appears to be significantly shorter than predicted. The ramifications of those findings are analyzed in detail, and future refinements are described.

  1. From QCD sum rules to HQET sum rules: Heavy-quark limit of four-quark operator matrix elements

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Computes four-quark operator matrix elements via QCD sum rules, derives their HQET limit, demonstrates numerical consistency between the two, and identifies the source of prior literature discrepancies.
